      Did D1L1 & it actually wasn't all that hard. We will see.

      I personally find it easier if I mute the video and listen to some of my own music. Of course I would recommend listening to the video the first couple of times but I get bored hearing the same thing over and over. When I go to level 2, I will go back to listening to Jillian for a few days.

      Good idea. I'm going to try that tomorrow for L1D6. (:

      day 2 was the worst for me D: i fell asleep right after i finished haha.
      i'm on day 6 today (haven't done it yet but i will...) and level 1 is getting easier but level 2 looks terrifying.

      I started on the 1st, but getting sick has hindered me going further... Cannot wait until I am better... We can do it...

      I'm on D3,L2. But I find myself stopping a lot, espcially at the lunges. I try making up for stopping by doing them slower, for greater number of reps. The time I take overall far exceeds 25 minutes. Will this impact my results?

      Looks like I am a little behind but I have been on vacation for two weeks and running around with a 4, 2(6yr olds) and a 10 yr. old. I think I have gotten TUNZ of exercize in the last two weeks. Now I am off of vacation and I am starting bright and early in the morning D1L1. Wish me luck!!! I wish you all luck and hope to keep up with you all :)!!!!

      ADD ME LETS DO THIS TOGETHER!!

      I don't bother counting the reps. I just try and do as many as I can in the time given. I find as the days go on im finding it easier to I'm doin more reps. I wouldn't get hung up on how many times you do it, just that you're exercising for te time period.

      I'm on day 3 L1. It's easy for me to do lunges when my right leg is forward and my left leg is back, But when my right leg is back, I lose my balance and can't keep up with her. I am already seeing a difference in my inner thigh definition on my left leg, but not my right. I'm looking lopsided, so after I was done with 30DS today, I did some lunges holding onto a chair with my right leg back to make up for the missed reps.

      I have to hold on to something to do the standing on 1 leg stretches - since I sprained my ankle last year my balance is not all it should be despite improvements through physio.

      Ok I just did Day 2 of Level 2 ... and &$#@% do I ever hurt ... particularly in my back. However, even my 30 year old son, who never notices *anything* about me, said "gee, Mom, you're thinner than I though you'd be and stronger than I thought". (I haven't seen him since last May and saw him this weekend, which was wonderful. He doesn't live close by.)

      Anyway, my clothes fit better. Unfortunately, I didn't take measurements ... but things are improving immensely.

      I also mute the voice. If you have the actual DVD, you can go into "Audio Options" and take out the voice track and just hear *their* music if you want ... but I also put on my own music when doing it.

      I like what it's doing ... although I can say, I'm glad Jillian Michaels is on the screen and not in my living room. We'd probably end up in an argument (and she'd win ... she's stronger than me). She does get amazing results though.

      Have a great week, all.

      Nope, nothing even sore on me today. Do you think I should just skip up to level 2? I mean the cardio is more than I normally do. But... only get about a 220 calorie burn and the "strength" and "abs" seem easy. Maybe I should just use some heavier more serious dumbbells? How much weight are y'all using?

      Question, how do you enter the 30 day shred into your excersize counter? Do you enter it by excersize? I couldn't find the video already loaded under the search bar. Thanks and good luck!

      I have to do that during the stretches too. I sprained my ankle about 6 months ago, so maybe that's the reason I have balancing issues.

      I created it as a new exercise and I use my HRM to determine how many calories I really burned doing it.

      In level 2 in the last abdominal exercise, Jillian says "if Natalie can do it, you can do it". REALLY?? Look at Natalie, then look at me. Can you now look me in the eye and say that honestly? I didn't think so.

      and when she says "Are you feelin it? I'm feelin it.", I really want to punch her in the mouth.

      Haha...so I'm not the only one that dislikes Jillian. I bought 30DS because of the all the support groups that are on MFP and because it seems to get results, but I really really do not like her.

      How many times a week are you supposed to do the DVD? Every dAy for 30 days at each level? Sorry if that sounds like a dumb question!

      Just had a look at Jillian on YouTube. She is tough, think I will give it a go though. How do you guys log this on here?
