    I'm on Day 5 today (technically my day 6, but I had to miss a day), and I have already lost 5 pounds! I feel a lot better than at the beginning of the week. I've cut out sodas, and snacking. Drinking nothing but water. I use 5 lbs weights, and those are enough when you are doing repeated reps of things.

    I'm super excited for Sunday because I will take measurements again. Pictures will wait until after every level is over. I'm so excited!

    Loving the great attitudes showing on this post! Makes me want to keep going. I have done 4 out of 5 days of the Shred and my muscles are sore. I am keeping my eating under control so far and hope to keep it that way.

    Keep up the great work everyone!

    Squeezed in day 3 yesterday (had to skip one day). Today was my weigh in and I was down 1.4 pounds. That's the first time I've been over a pound in a week since I started. Must be Jillian. I've noticed that my arms have a small muscle in them already without even flexing them. Awesome!

    Ty!! I've been reading a lot and it seems like Jillian says not to do it every day, that you need at least one rest day, so I think I'm going to take tomorrow off, even God rested on the 7th day!!! Lol.

    Day 5 done! I'm feeling good, and I think it's getting easier (except for the push ups).

    Just about to do day 5! I was going to do it yesterday, but our internet was out so no DVD ): So I'm downloading it now! I just decided to make yesterday my break day instead of tomorrow, so it won't hinder my progress.

    what weights is everyone using? I'm using 5 pounders. The last time I did the 30 day shred I was 30 pounds lighter....I feel like I'm going to die. How's everyone else doing? I may have to do level 1 twice....we'll see.

    For the rows and the chest flys I'm using 8 lb weights. I don't feel it at all without that much weight and might go up to 10 lbs by the end of Level 1 if I need to.

    I try to do everything else with 5 lbs for at least the first round and drop to the 3 lbs if I need to the second round.

    A side note on a victory for me - I was able to complete 30 seconds of jump rope without stopping during the last circuit's cardio section last night during my day 6 of level 1. I was pumped!

    I think im going to use your method in using different weights for dif exercises maybe thats why i feel no soreness because 5 lbs are too light. With lunges they are fine but with chest row or chest flys i need more wieght!1 Using 8 lbs next time!! im doing it today let you guys know how i feel!

    Day 5 finished! Halfway finished with level 1.

    Sadly I had to take a break yesterday, but that's fine. I'll just not have my planned rest tomorrow instead. My body isn't sore anymore, I think I'm starting to adapt!
