    Can you achieve results with just diet and 30ds alone? I see alot of people do some other form of exercise wit it. I can only take out the 30 min/day

    Yes, you can achieve results with just diet and 30DS. I structured my workout to be 2 days DS, 1 day pilates, 2 days DS, 1 day rest -- then repeat. But you can do this however works best for you. I found that doing the 30DS made me feel stronger, and once I got to Level 2 I wanted to do more.

    Listen to your body, and do what feels right. Don't worry about some 'right way' or feel obligated to keep up with what others have done. Instead view those stories as options. And do what is right for you.

    Love seeing everyones results!

    I'm going to be starting this week (as soon as my DVD comes!). I'm afraid of becoming unmotivated after a few days... if I even get to that point I just need to remind myself of everyone elses success.

    I don't have any pictures yet. What I can tell you is I am on Level 2 this will be my day 13 today. I have been doing level 2 for 3 days today. So far I have lost 2 lbs with 30DS but a total of 10.5 inches off my body. I really think the scale may have been a little lower today if my muscles weren't recovering from the workout yesterday. It works! I notice a difference in the way my clothes fit. And even can see it in the mirror and can feel it when my hubbs puts his arms around my waist. HEHE! I love JILLIAN MICHAELS WORK OUTS! I can't wait to move on to ripped in 30. However, it is important to take a rest day in these workouts!

    I completed 30DS in 40 days (was also training for a half-marathon at the time). Level 1 - 5 days, Level 2 - 15 days, Level 3 - 10 days. As others have mentioned go at your own pace but definitely do it. It works!

    I'm only on Day 5 Level 1, but I can now do it without stopping! I also feel energized and my endurance has improved when I run! I was a little skeptical at first, but I don't regret starting it!

    I just started 30DS lvl 1, 2 wks ago because I needed strength training along w/cardio. I have yet to weigh or measure myself but I can feel a difference in my clothes and see subtle changes. Friend me as well, if you'd like, I'd love to see your progress. I can tell you those push ups are one of my biggest challenges of all...

    I am on Level 2 day 9 today. I finish up level 2 tomorrow and take more measurements. After the first level, the first 10 days, I lost 4 & 3/4 inches. Like so many have said, it's awesome to see your endurance increase if you stick with it. Level 2 has been a killer for me but I've stuck with it and have noticed a big difference in my endurance. I feel tighter and more toned. I also am doing the strength training program in the book New Rules of Lifting for women and 20 minutes of HIIT on the elliptical.

    Today will be Level 2 Day 8 for me!! I have a love/hate relationship with Jillian... :)

    I haven't seen much movement on the scale yet (only 2-3 pounds) but I am definitely noticing a difference in my measurements. In the first two weeks, I am down more than 5 inches overall. I also LOVE to see how quickly my endurance improves as I work through each level. The first few days might be killer, but once I hit day 4-5, I can already tell a difference. I have taken a few rest days so far, and I think that helps.

    I have also purchased Ripped in 30, and am going to give that a try once I finish with 30DS.

    I read that you should multiply your current weight by 3.267 to get calories burned in one hour, then divide by three to get calories burned in twenty minutes....Other people log it as 20 minutes cardio-circuit training. For me, the first way was 45 calories more, so I'm using that one!!!
    Just finished day one, push ups were very difficult for me...my legs are a bit wobbly too!! I love when she says that you can go to the gym and give a half-effort for an hour or go all out with her for 20 minutes.
    Going to do it every other day because doing c25k too.
    I'm here everyday if anyone wants to friend me for motivation....

    I started the 30 Day Shred last Friday, July 20th. Today was my first day of Level 2! This first day was hard but SO worth it! I took some pics to compare with day one and plan to do this again on day 20 and then day 30. Just thought I'd go ahead and share my results. The pics aren't that great (sorry so dark!) and the change isn't much different, but it's definitely noticeable! I love looking at every ones results and can't WAIT to see where I will be come day 30! Keep up the amazing work y'all! :)
