Hey All! I am posting to see if I have some friends to join me in a 30DS from Monday Jan 14 through Feb 13 to get fit for Valentine's Day! What a great way to celebrate love... for ourselves and fitness! So, Let's post our starting weight and measurements (whatever you would like to measure) and begin. There are no "have to's" or how many times a week to hang out with Jillian... Just set your plan -- post it -- check in weekly, or more if you need support ore less and with final results on Feb 13th! Give it your all. I am. I hope others join me. February 14 is my one year anniversary in my weightloss journey.

Hi Klworrell,
I'm up for the challenge! I actually started Level 1 day 1 today and came across your post this evening but I'd love to have friends to do the workouts with (even if I am one day ahead!) I initially tried doing insanity workouts but found them really tough and my body was completely sore for days so I thought I'd try the 30 day shred first.0 -
That is so great! I'd love to have the support. Yep, Insanity is a beast. Okay... so I am starting today. I weighed in but left my info at home on the table. So I will log it in this evening after I have fun with Jillian. How was last night's workout? Are you doing okay today?0
-
Haha I had just woken up this morning with my plan of doing the 30DS in time for valentines day, had a search on here and here it is! I'm so in! I will take measurements and weight tomorrow but today is day 1!0
-
Yay! More support the better! I just did day 2 and I'm feeling sore! I don't have any hand weights yet so I did the workout with a melon and a bag of rice and most of the rice ended up on the floor! Lol. Will buy some proper weights tonight I think. I have posted.my starting measurements on my profile mostly for me to remember them.0
-
Hahahah funny!
I use soup tins to start off with. I felt quite sick afterwards. Will teach me not to stick with things lol0 -
The more the merrier!
Oh no... not rice all over the floor!!! LOL! I too used soup cans at first. Since I am starting over... it has been months... I did it free hand tonight. I am going to get my soup cans out and build myself back up to my weights! So, we are off to a great start! Have a great night all!!! Valentine's Success... Period!!!0 -
I had this same idea! Started 30DS yesterday, the 14th, planning to finish by Valentine's Day

Yay more people!
Day 2 done and dusted. Was a bit ouchies but wasn't as hard as yesterdays first day0 -
So awesome to have people still joining! I took today off. My achilles was a little sore so I gave it a rest. Those jump rope things hurt. So while I rebuild my strength, I went to spin class and worked out on the elliptical. Back on with Jill in the morning! Have a great evening everyone!:happy:0
-
Good morning all! I forgot it was trash day! So I was running around this morning getting the trash out and missed my AM workout!. So, this afternoon me and my girl Jillian are going to Shred! LOL Have a great day! Does anyone have plans for this Valentines that is motivating the 30DS? I guess I'll start. Aside from wanting to loose the weight I gained over the holidays - and more if possible, I want to wear some super hot dress... I've yet to buy. I am going shopping at the end of the month.0

Aw lucky! I don't think I'll look any good (or how I want to) in a dress by Valentines day. Me and DH are going out for dinner and I'm getting my ring finger tattooed with our wedding date in roman numerals and "Endless Love" on the sides. Can't Wait!
Right time to go do day 3. I'm also doing the 200 squat challenge
My muscles are dying lol 0 -

I am NOWHERE near where I want to be...but I love -as I release - my juicy and my curves into the evolution of my inner rock hard diva emerging! Less jiggle when I giggle... IJS! LOL I am a tattoo virgin and I so want one but can't decide...Your story is romantic!
So, you are doing Jillian and 200 Squats... OMGoodness! GoFit or GoHome! I will try a squat or two...but 200 is it a day?!?!. I am not there yet! :noway:0 -

Hahaha nah, you don't start at 200. You work your way up to it You do an intital test so you know which program to follow. I managed 30, could of pushed out more but my thighs were so sore after starting 30DS lol.
Heres the link to ithttp://www.twohundredsquats.com/
I'll be doing it a bit diff because I have a app on my phone, it's not the one associated with 200 squats but it's the same sort of thing
I thought its a great addition to the 30DS seeing as my thighs and butt are my problem area
I'd get a small tat to start with
Right today is day 4...only 6 more days of level 1 left 0 -
See I needed Squats 101. I thought that you were doind squats throughout the day... That reveals that I have never tried to do more than I see on an exercise video. LOL I will check out the site and give it my best! **humming -I don't think ya ready for this jelly. LOL song-Bootylicious** Goofy Friday on deck!0
-
Hahaha :P
I'm still not sure how much calories I should be eating. What's everyone elses goal? I had mine at 1200 but I think that's too low so I bumped them up to 1600 which I think is too high lol0 -
i've been trying to aim for 1200. Do you know how many calories you burn during the level 1 30 day shred workouts? i don't have a heart monitor so i'm not sure how many cals i'm burning so i cant calculate how many exercise calories to eat back. however, i really don't feel like i'm sweating/burning too many calories while i'm doing the workout (maybe 100 calories or so).0
-
Yeah I think I might stay to 1200-1400. I did actually measure it once (I have a heart rate monitor). I think it was almost 200 cals? I'll put it on today when I do day 7 0
-
Thanks madisons_mumm that would be really helpful!0
-
If during the day I have added exercise calories I generally aim to eat back half of them but will make sure they are fresh fruit or veg (I love fruit and find that my fruit consumption takes me over my daily sugar allowance so eating back exercise calories in fruit is sort of like a treat for me)0
-
Argh sorry I was in a super rush this morning doing the 30DS and bloody kids being naughty lol. Didn't have time to look for the watch! I will deff do it tomorrow if I can find it. I know with level 2 I was burning approx 280 though (have it in notes from last year) 0

I don't bother to put my exercise calories in because it always tells me off lol. I've decided to try out 1600 cals max. So I'll be happy between 1200-1600 cals 0 -
How is everyone doing? Level 1 calories burnt for me was 191 right from start to finish 2 more days of level 1 then onto level 2 0
-
Nice! That's a better burn than I expecte0
-
I've also got two more days left ( I had a rest day on Friday)0
-
Oh sweet!
Feel like I'm coming down with something hopefully not. Will keep going though! 0 -
Daughters 2nd Birthday on Saturday. Do you think it'd be ok if I had cake, cupcakes etc? lol...I do say it's "gave birth day" LOL0
-
Of course! I think you need treats now and then just to keep sane! It's my brother' wedding tomorrow so I will be getting a fancy calorific meal and hopefully wedding cake too - but i feel I deserve it after completing 30DS level 1 0
-
Yeah that's true. I hope your brother has an awesome day!
I felt fatty last night before going to sleep and I still feel fat ugh, don't you hate those feelings 0 -
Hows everyone going? Gone all quiet in here
Hope you haven't given up
God I hate level 2 lol. Only 5 more days of it though!
I have eaten naughty because of Daughters 2nd B'day. Back on track today though 0 -
hope your daughter had a lovely birthday too! sorry, i've just come back home from wedding celebrations - haven't even started level 2 yet but will be starting it today. i didn't overindulge on the food too much but drank A LOT of wine and champagne : /
back to being good today though!0
