    I am starting this again on Saturday - I was doing it on level one and got to day 8 but was on holiday and kept losing the internet signal to my phone, I must admit it is an amazing workout in such a short space of time. I did it as soon as I got up, before I went the gym. Will be doing this now for the next 30days will keep you posted.

    I am on Day 5 of Level 2 and it is working. I was going to take measurements tonight (at halfway point) just to see where I am. I lost about 3 pounds so far.

    I was on Level 1, Day 8 or 9 and watched Level 2...I thought "Holy crap, I am never going to be able to do that!" but lo and behold, here I am doing it. It is tough, don't get me wrong, but it gets easier as you get used to it IMO. I haven't even watched Level 3 yet because I don't want to freak myself out like I did for L2! LOL

    On day 27. Gained 2 pounds. Lost 2.5 inches.
    I eat about 1700 calories a day. 5'9... 152 pounds
    I ordered RI30. I heard it's harder. I am nervous but still gonna try it.

    I'm currently one Week 2 of Ripped in 30... It's wonderful :) (In that "i want to kill Jillian because I walk funny because my muscles are killing me *everywhere*" kind of way)

    For those of you who got results, did you just do one level at a time for 10 days at a time? Did you do 2 levels at a time? Did you add any additional workouts?

    Thanks~

    I did Level 1 for 5 days, Level 2 for 15 days, and Level 3 for 10 days.

    Level 1 is definitely the easiest and can fool you into thinking the DVD is easy. Not so! Once you get to Level 2 you'll realize it's anything but fun. Definitely a great workout :)



    Oh my why did you have to say this!!! I found level one difficult!! I'm on to level 2 tomorrow and now I'm freaking out!!!!

    You can do it! Just use the modifier until you work up to the expert person, who is a machine!

    I completed Ripped In 30 right after 30DS. It's very similar with a few new moves. I'm doing 6 Week 6 Pack now. I wll probably go back to 30 DS after or try one of her other DVDs after this....put in the work and you will love the results. And only 25 minutes a day! Definitely worth it..

    I finished 30 Day Shred and am a week away from finishing Ripped in 30. The 30 Day Shred was awesome, but you definitely have to be dedicated to finish it. I lost 12 lbs. and quite a few inches. SO worth it! Since I started Ripped in 30 I have lost another 11 lbs. (still have a week to go). I was super out of shape when I started 30DS, so I didn't push myself to move on until I was ready. I ended up doing the first level for like 12 days. Same for level 2. The thing that gets me through the workouts every day is the fact that it's only 30 minutes. It's only a tiny little chunk out of my day and then I'm free to do what I want!

    I personally find level 2 easier if that makes you feel better

    I completed the 30DS the month of July. I began with very little muscle tone at all (the first day of level 1 left me so sore, I could barely move for two days -- that's how weak I was), stuck through it and completed it. By the end of the month, I definitely noticed a difference in muscle definition, my endurance, and my strength. For someone like me, especially, the results were pretty clear even after just 4 days of the work out. I only lost 2 pounds, but a total of 14 inches on the Shred, and it absolutely encouraged me to keep going.

    Now I'm doing the Ripped in 30 (week one will be very easy for anyone who has completed the Shred, but week 2 and up is very challenging, even for Shred alums!), with Jillian's Yoga Meltdown for a full hour workout every day. My body has changed a LOT since June. I couldn't be happier with Jillian's DVD's!

    After 8 days of level 1 I messed up both of my knees with the jumping involved. According to the doctor both knee caps had a bit too much bone on bone stress put on them. As soon as they don't hurt anymore with walking stairs and such, I'll continue. Will replace the jumping with low-impact cardio though!

    I just finished the 30 days yesterday. I ordered RI30... It isn't here yet so I am going back to level two - god forbid I give myself a break - to see if I can do any of the moves better or make it through without swearing at the TV.

    I love the 30 day shred! I start level III tomorrow. So far I have lost 4 pounds, but mostly I am amazed at how much stronger I have gotten so quickly. When I started I couldn't do a single push-up, not even from my knees, nor could I complete a full minute of bicycle crunches!! Well guess what! Yesterday I did my very first man push-up in my entire life!

    I love this workout and couldn't be happier. Am so scared to see what level III looks like tomorrow!
