Try refreshing your page; that might help. I just took a look and they are all showing up. I hope this helps!0 -
I am Joining you girls in this. I still dont have the videos with me.. nor the on demand. So I guess i will starting off slow. I have done 30 day shred earlier...(i did the 30 day shred programme from exercisetv.tv - which includes all the 3 levels, BFBM, NMTZ all in alternate patterns... it was really good and effective.... i lost almost 10 lbs... but that was 2 months back. So I am here starting off again. A new fitness plan and diet plan..(watch what u eat plan :d)
Best of luck to all of u. Till date I have never taken my measurements....maybe due to the scare of facing reality....but I will do it now and post it here soon. :happy: Hope I continue the good work...:D0 -
CW: 198.8 measurments. 40.5-36-41. Yikes. Anyway I'm super excited to start tonight have done the video 4 times last week so I know what to expect. Then will do 30 mins on the treadmill after.0

I got my Shred on. I did it and it was not super bad but I will see how I feel in the morning when the muscles start to cry. I will post measurements later I forgot to bring them to work with me. Does anyone else have pain in the arms when doing jumping jacks? Kind of like over extending more than anything else.0

Started L1D1 of the Shred this a.m using 5lb weights, followed by 25 minutes of Tae-bo Power rounds!!!! WOHOHOOOOI am certainly GETTIN IT IN!!!
I must say the push ups weren't as bad as I thought although I was doing the modified version :laugh: , The Slim in 6 workouts prepared me for them! LOVE THE UPPER BODY WORKOUTS!!!
I did buss a MAJOR sweat for that 20 minute workout!
I plan to get it in a 3-4 times a week, and incorporate some ofther things Tae-Bo, Elliptical, and running! WOHOOOO summer here I come with Michelle Obama arms :glasses:0 -
Holy sweaty hell, Batman! Just did my first ever Shred session, and all I can say is "ouch". I mean, I knew I was out of shape, but dang. I barely made it through the sessions, and I had to take a lot of breaks. My arms and legs are pretty floppy now, but hey Day 1 is down lol.0

I tried posting my before pics from photo bucket, it didnt work. :grumble: Help0

Alright I'm down for this, even though I can't stand the woman. Im hoping that it will help me be motivated so that i can yell at her every day :P
SW - 316
CW - 267
GW - 200 (or less)
Neck 15
Thigh 29.5
Butt 53
Tummy 52.5
Hip 53
Bicep 13.75
Finished the first workout, and aside from the transverse abs crunch crushing my spine (yay for hardwood laminate on basement cement) it wasn't so bad. Though, I found that because I am out of shape and my lungs are still healing from quitting smoking I found myself to be out of breath (duh!) and I noticed that getting up after being on the floor created this bizzarre dizziness and vomiting feeling, so I had to break for a minute or so about halfway through.
Oh well, I guess I'l be seeing a lot more of that woman over the next 30 days.0 -

Try making sure there is a slight bend in your elbows. This may help with the hyper-extension.0 -

It depends on each individual but I, myself, burned 291 according to my HRM...most of the comments I've seen on this is in the 200-250 range.0 -

Hey callie,
First make sure your pictures are not in a folder. They should be saved in the default location.
Then copy the code that starts(your picture link should be between these.
Last, make sure the IMG in both brackets are lower case.
Let me know if this doesnt work. :flowerforyou:0 -

WAY TO GO!!! Just remember, like Jillian says, breaks if you need em but NO LONGER than 5 seconds! I found myself doing the reps a little slower because my heartrate was skyrocketing..this helped me bring it back to its range.0 -

Well done! I've learned water helps bring my heartrate down and minimizing the nausea; just sip it because too much water may just come right back up. Pairing this with straight cardio should really help with your lung endurance.0 -

Just finished Day 1 of the Shred! It wasn't that bad but as soon as I was done and made my way downstairs, my legs were like jello! I'm sure I'm going to be sore tomorrow but what's a few days of being sore as opposed to a lifetime of being fit and happy.
See you tomorrow Jillian!!!!0 -
Hi is too late to join this thread? I just started the 30 day Shred last week, completed L1D7 today. I plan on doing 10 days and then giving Level 2 a try. I browsed it and overall looks like I could handle it but we'll see. I may try using lighter weights or something. It also looks like we are either sharing before pics or measurements? I prefer not to post full body shots, but will take some for myself to compare. I've locked my scale away until the end of the 30 days, so won't be updating until then.

Great job, Lady! Keep it up! Also, make sure to stretch more than she allots for...this should definitely help with the soreness!0 -

HAHA hey yelling at her works. And then you'll be doing the workout better than her!! Since she seems to stop a lot to talk! We'll all be better than Jillian soon! 0 -

Ummm, all I can say is expect to hurt lol. :laugh: I had a cold for the last 4 days, but since the Shred is only 20 min. I forced myself to do it. I couldn't breathe through my nose, so I was panting and collapsed on the couch by the end, but made it through each day without any breaks! I would suggest drinking a bottle of water or so BEFORE starting, then sipping down at least another 8 oz. after. As far as the "I'm gonna vomit" and dizziness, that does get better after the first couple of days. Best of luck ladies...it's good to have some accountability.0 -
So I'm feeling really good today. I might even attempt to do the video again! I'm super full from dinner and just relaxing now to watch 2 shows. Then I'm thinking MAYBE doing the shred again and/or 45 minutes of wii fit plus
We'll see, either way I'll see all of you tomorrow for another great day of shredding!!!!0 -
Lets give it another try.....My before pictures
OM I didnt know they would be so darn big..... This is what you call MAJOR INCENTIVE and Accountability for me!! :blushing:
Good nite girls :flowerforyou:0 -
What an inspiration! Great job thus far! I am at about the same weight range as you and have so many reasons to make for a better healthier me.
I bought the DVD this weekend and I am up for joining this group! So looking forward to change and more energy.
Bring on the sweat and let's shred!

I'm glad to say that all the crunches I've been doing at the gym have worked, I found the abs portions very easy. Not the cardio though!
lol. i agree. i do tony's ab cruncher on the sunday's we are in town; i guess that has been effective. cardio, not so much. my son watched and he kept yelling at me 'jillian said you can't stop so don't stop.'
