    i "started" on friday could only manage 10 minutes. tried again this morning and only lasted 15 minutes. So i'm officially gonna start tomorrow. Wish me luck

    It's only 20 minutes... power through, even if you're just jogging in place instead of doing the exercises. The last couple mins are cool down anyway :)

    This is my first time through but I expect to lose inches on this workout rather than weight (diet is really what loses the pounds anyways).

    It doesn't burn many calories for me - about 150 or so (as opposed to 350 for 30 minutes of running).

    But, I do expect to gain more muscles....and that is going to help burn more calories throughout the day (and better for me in the long run).

    Keep at it. It gets easier and the benefits are worth the work.

    Good luck!

    Joining in a bit late. I started 30ds on 07/23/12 so tonight will be level 1 day day10. I am really ready for level II.. I run every night before the video. usually 30 to 40 minutes. The first couple days my thighs were killing me, but I am over that. I noticed last night that I was skyrocketing off the ground for the jump ropes and during the buttkicks I was ymca'ing my arms.... I have my ipod blaring over JM because frankly I am tired of hearing her repeat herself..."right buddy" ? LOL!! I took before pics and measurements and promised that I would not step on a scale for the entire 30 days. I just dont want to disappoint myself with any gains, so I am letting my measurements be my guide. I am 5'7 and about 175 lbs. I am aiming to eat about 1700 calories a day. Do you think that is ok with my running and 30ds. I dont go over and I am slightly under that sometimes. I know my metabolism is sooo messed up from bad dieting over the last few years... so I just want to do this right...
    Thanks!

    I didn't start until later and I'm on Level 1 day 9. So excited to be finished with Level 1- it's getting pretty boring, but I'm nervous about Level 2. I'm still sore in my thighs- which I assume means something is happening there. I do notice that I don't have to take hardly any breaks except during push-ups (which I can't do worth anything but am getting better at). I haven't taken any days off because I'm afraid I won't want to start back, and then I'll be sore again as if I'm starting over. Just thought I'd put in an update.

    oh man i started level 2 today...this level is hard! I think Im gonna stick with level 1 until I build up more strength so I can actually do all of the exercises in level 2. As long as im doing some exercise I'm happy, and level 1 gave me a good workout.

    I have a question about the signature banner for how much weight you lost. How do you update it?? I weighed in on my profile and had lost weight but it doesnt show up.

    It's probably a glitch with the website, it should update automatically. Also, you get better results if you mix exercises, so I'd recommend doing 10 on each level.
