    Just finished day 2 level one! She is pretty hardcore but I really like it b/c you don't do any one thing for too long.

    Quick question ladies: How are you moving through the levels? I was thinking 1 week at level 1, 1 week at level 2, and then level three for the remaining time??

    Here is where you can download and print the workout plan. It shows you exactly what to do each day.

    darn it...I didn't realize it was multiple disks. From Netflix you only get the 30 day shred, no Banish Fat Boost Metabolism, and no No More Trouble Zones.
    Are those part of the actual "program", or just extras that are optional?

    Yes they are part of it. If you go to the link I have posted, download the workout plan and you can see. It has you alternating the 3 but the other 2 arent so often. I am sure you will still get the same results with just the one disk if you do it every day for 30day

    I LOVE 30DS! I did it a lot at the end of last year beginning of this year (just 30DS not the 30 Day Slim Down Program). I switched to Banish Fat Boost Metabolism DVD trying to burn more calories (it's 20+ min more for a total of 40 min of killer cardio). I started noticing my stomach sagging more and losing muscles in my arms and my legs didn't seem as toned. I don't know about losing 20 lbs in 30 days, but it motivates and helps tone you. Since I started a couple days ago I am re-motivated again. Maybe she has sub-conscience messages in her DVDS :laugh:

    Ummmm Yahhhh! this is a great workout & yes the results are real! If you eat clean, drink your water and stick to the 30 Day Shred you will see GREAT results. I love this DVD along with her others, read my blog for my Level to Level results!
    If you put forth the effort the results are sure to follow! What are you waiting for? Get started already! :wink:

    I cant make it to level 3. I stick to level 1 & on occasion try level 2. I cant do push ups, even girly ones so level 2 I have to get creative since I cant do what they want. I do standing push ups against the wall. Anytime I do the Shred I am red & sweating so something is working. I don't do it everyday but maybe 3 -4 times a week. the days I don't do it I do a 30 minute walk outside w/ my dog.

    I modify certain exercises like jumping jacks b/c it hurts to have my boobs bouncing up & around even in a good sports bra. I essentially do lower impact butt kicks with the jumping jack arm motion instead.

    I sometimes think I'd rather do an hour workout where I wont be so sore, red & sweaty instead of 20 minutes with Jillian but I feel like I accomplished more with the hardcore workout she gives, even if I modify a bit.

    I started the 30DS over a week ago and noticed a difference after just 3 days. Unfortunately, I fell of the exercise bandwagon and caught a cold and haven't done it in several days. I want to start it up again and keep it up. I have a feeling that if I was seeing a difference after only 3 days that I'd love the results after 30! Just have to stay motivated!

    Good luck, hope you get the results you're looking for!
