    Hi all! I started the 30DS on January 1st with the goal of completing it *in* January. Just about to do day 3 this morning! I'm 173lbs, and hopefully can see some results by the end of the month. Really hoping this will be the kick in the butt I need to make daily activity a part of my regular routine. Feel free to add me as a friend!!

    Hi everyone,

    My name is Jenn. I have done the 30 DS a couple of times in the past, but never completed the full 30 days! Tonight I am going to start back up! It's a new year and I am going to really try and stick with this program! I really overindulged this holiday season and put on some extra pounds. Good luck to everyone! :)

    Hello from Japan! My name is Rachel and I'm active duty Air Force. I did the 30DS after I had my second son, but never made it out of level 1- pitiful I know. So i'm doing it this time and i'm gonna make it all the way through. They say if you do something so many times it becomes a routine and that's my plan- to fit it in as a routine. I have 3 other videos of hers too that I plan to do after this. I also do crossfit along with the 30DS so I may not be doing the 30DS every day in a row. But anyways glad to meet you all and excited about what this year will hold! :smile:

    Hi my name is Monica. Just joined the group today and started Jillian today as well. I did this last year and lost about 12-14 lbs total plus inches doing this workout everyday. I suck at maintaining so the 20lbs I lost last year are back along with an extra 4 :-( Trying to find my motivation once again so i came straight here to find a group :-)

    I need to change my weightloss ticker but embarrassed.

    Hi - my name is Deb. Started 30 DS this week - completed Day 3 today. Bound and determined to do 30 consecutive days. Anyone have a sugestion for a good Yoga (for beginners) DVD - Jillian needs to learn to stretch more!
  • Hi my name is Danielle. I started 30DS on Jan. 2nd and just completed day 3 today. I joined the group for extra motivation and some accountability. I'm really hoping that I can get myself motivated and see this all the way through to day 30.

    Hello My name is Ali,
    I am on Day 13 of the 30 day shred, Level 2.
    I have not missed one day yet and am making it my purpose not to skip a single day even with other work out or activities planned.
    So far so good and only a few days off from the half way mark!


    We can all do it!
  • Hi, My name is Kari, 25 yr olds.

    I started 30DS sometimes last year. I think I made it to about 4 or 5 days of lvl 1. My goal is to go through with this the whole way even if I don't see my scale move! I am also doing the C25K at same time so I can participate in a 5k at the end of March.

    I noticed that with the training I've been doing with the C25K I'm able to keep up with Jillian better now except for the jumping rope. I hate that part!!

    Hi, my name is Stephanie.

    I'm on day 2 of the 30DS. I'm feeling a bit sore from it, but trying to stay positive/motivated. I'm attempting to lose some post partum weight and heard this would be a great way to start.

    Good luck to everyone! Feel free to friend me if you need support.

    Hi - I'm Jen,

    I just started the 30DS today. I've done it before, but only 2 or 3 days a week, whilre running on other days. This time I want to go straight through the 30DS with no other exercise (taking Sundays and maybe Saturdays off). Then I have two more Jillian workouts to work through (No More Trouble Zones and Ripped in 30.

    I'm about 5 to 10 pounds from where I want to be, but am more concerned about toning up. I'm do need to get my eating in check (I'm embarassed by my food diary!) but it's a lot easier for me to work out than watch what I'm eating.

    Feel free to friend me!

    Hi Everyone! I'm Jay and this is my first time doing the 30DS. I have about 25 lbs to lose, and I typically have a tough time staying motivated without concrete goals so I thought maybe this would work pretty well for me. My husband, despite being aggravatingly skinny, is doing it with me for support and excercise, which is definitely helping keep me on track :)

    I'm on day 4 of level one, and I think the initial soreness is wearing off thankfully, and yesterday I was able to move up to 5lb weights for all but the side lunges (ouch!) so I was excited for that :)

    Anyway, please feel free to friend me, I would love to cheer other people going through this on, and be held acountable so I keep going, ha ha.

    Good luck to everone!
  • I have tried 30DS 2 different times and couldn't get past day 5. I really want to stick with this and make it the full 30 days. Finished day 3 and didn't know if I could do it. But, I did. Those who have done this before, you are the ones I am looking to for motivation so I know it can be done!

    I've been gaining and losing weight for all my life. I've done it by myself, professionally, everything. Adter having a year with an illness and its treatment, now I want to lose weight for once and all. Starting to new years helped with it ;)

    Since ALL my friends around me are fit, thin and healthy, i was always alone. I did use MFP a year back before illness and I started 30 day shred last night. Of all times, NOW i remembered that there are people like me and they might be using forums, and heh, they are using it :)

    I'm a lawyer, I work all day, i'm always running or walking ALL DAY, so i'm relying on my metabolism. The worst thing is being alone in this, THAT's what I know.

    I've seen many "friend me" posts, and this is the first time i'm doing a post like that, so I don't know what to say :D I'm very active on mobile/social platforms (lawyers are always using those damn phones :P) so I know i'll be always checking up on you and support you back in return :D

    Hopefully i can get new friends in this while losing weights.

    Hi All.. my name is Coralee and I just began Jillian's 30 days this evening. I have been doing her AB DVD once in a while because I am trying to tighten my postpartum midsection. Looking forward to making new friends.. have 15 pounds until my goal and hopefully you and Jillian can help me achieve it!
  • You sound like me! You can do this! I really want to do the full 30 days and not quit. Did day 6 today.
  • You can do this for the 30 days! I am in the same boat and bound and determined to get through it. On day 6!

    Hi I'm Donna from the UK. Tried the 30DS a couple of years ago, managed to nearly make it to the end and definitely felt more toned! I'm desperate to get back to as near to my profile picture as I can!

    Started Day 1 today, am determined not to skip any days - my arms are still shaking now though. Can't believe I can't do 3 minutes of cardio without stopping - how rubbish is that!!!

    Hope to get lots of motivation from this group! If anyone wants to add me that would be great, need all the encouragement I can!
