    I'm on day 2. I started yesterday (for the 4th time or something crazy in the past 2 years. Never get past day 10. I MUST do it this time!) on level one. I literally started bawling my eyes out 10 minutes into it. I haven't worked out in about 3 months and I'm sure that is part of the emotion and pain. But, we just moved to AZ from Denver 8 days ago and I think the flood gates just opened. I cried the last 15 minutes and then for 10 more after that. Then, I cried last night randomly! :P I JUST finished my workout today but I did level 2 (I was curious about it) and I didn't cry! I do, however, kinda feel like throwing up and my legs are shaking like crazy!

    I'm ready to do this! Count me in!

    Just did day 3 and I am hurting. It hurts to sit, stand and walk. I did the Brazilian Butt Lift for 3 months and stopped in Nov. I was using 10lbs weights and figured I could do that with Jillian Michaels. I can barley get through the strength workouts. I have to use the 10 lbs because I refuse to buy smaller weights, I am going to push myself it will keep me motivated. I am paying for it but feel great!! I also do 60 minutes of cardio on my treadmill. Cannot wait to see my results and plan on doing Ripped in 30 when I am done with this!

    if level one is too easy you should move up, thats how I understood it, same for if it was hard, you would stay on it till you could complete it all correctly! I know ppl that do level two the whole thirty days, every says level two is harder than three for some reason lol

    I am, on day 2 of the 30 day shred.. I'm awful at sticking to an exercise routine, and even worse about watching what I eat. I really have my mind set on this and am hoping I can pull through.. I'm at 250+ lbs and am just miserable... I will be honest and say on day 1 I only did the first 16 min of the video, but today I pulled through til the end. I was exhausted but felt great. Looking forward to what this could bring and welcome ANY and ALL pointers to make this journey successful :)

    At first I thought it was easy, but then my muscles were sore the next day and they still are!! I run a lot, so this is a whole new thing for me! Good luck everyone :D

    I just restarted it. I only did 3 days of it at the beginning of December. I would love to be part of the group and have some new "friends" too. I am semi new to MFP and need motivation.

    I just found this thread.. I started 30DS on 1Jan again, after having completed it back in Sept 2012. My results were so good then, that I thought this time through, I would use real weights (soda cans in Level 1 the first time, then 3 lbs weights afterward).. I am doing the whole 30 days with 5 lb weights. I forgot how hard this was the first few days!
    My aches and pains are gone ... for now. I know when I get to L2, I'll be hating it all over again, and eager to get to L3 but I am just happy and excited to do this again. My only real downside is last Friday night, I came home from work, ate dinner and promptly fell asleep in my recliner. 12 hours of work, cooked dinner and then yeah.. zonked. I slept maybe 20 minutes when I got up and realized I was too wobbly to make it down the stairs to the basement, much less to do a JM DVD! So I missed one night :(. I will do L1 til the 11th, to make up for it though.
    Anyone else here already done this DVD and still coming back for more? I'm curious :)

    So, are you saying you don't want us to keep posting here?
    And, I did all my starter measurements on January 1st. So I'll use those. Does anyone know if this routine is *intended* to be done back to back with no rest days? That would be rather unusual.

    There are now 3 different groups for this same 30 day shred. What's up with that? Why are y'all doing this?

    I did five days on then had weekends off, mainly because of schedule and still got decent results :D
