    Last year i did it around 90 days and toned up but didn't lose weight ( I didn't diet though)

    I have started again 2 weeks ago and am trying to eat slightly less and have lost 2lb and an inch from each thigh :-) ( i only want to lose around 6-8 lb) anyway, what I really want to ask is how are you logging it on MFP ?

    Thanks

    I started the 30DS on Tuesday Jan 22. It kicked my butt. My legs hurt so bad on Wednesday I had to crawl up the stairs. I would be walking at work and my knee/leg would just go jello. I continued to do the shred, but with limited movement with the legs.

    Today I decided to try again full steam ahead since my legs were feeling MUCH better. I think I did ok, still can not go without stopping for a breather. I'm not logging these as completed though, my goal is to be able to do level 1 all the way before I start keeping track. I'm getting close!! I'm setting a goal to be able to do level 1... 100% no stopping by February 1st. Ten I'll be on Day 1 Level 1.

    Wish me luck. I've already went from 198 pounds to 187.5 in a month. Cut out Mountain Dew and I drink around 10 glasses of water a day. Also trying to not going over 1200 calories a day. I've also been using my elliptical.

    I'm new here so any advice is welcome!!!!!

    Rest days are needed and are good for you.She says it herself in the beginning of the DVD.My first times through I did them with only one day rest and now I have added another day when I will walk only to burn calories.My muscles need it.

    I started this a few days ago.. So hard and make me so sore!! That's a good thing though,, my only issue is each day I have done it I have went up a pound????!!!! Not loving that. I"m not eating anymore and I'm staying in my calories for the day.. Any one have any advice for that. I really wanna do this but I am getting discouraged by the gaining.

    I just started 30DS on Saturday, tonight is day 3. Be happy to join all of you!

    Day 1 was not as bad as I expected, except for the ab exercises, and I can only do modified push ups.
    Day 2 was harder because my muscles were tired. The worst were the bicycle crunches. Still can only do modified push ups.

    I'm using 3lb weights.

    I'm in. I'm a runner, but I live in Chicago, so it's a bit cold especially when I get up to work out at 4am. I'll do this everyday with you guys except on those rare winter days when it's warm enough to be outside. I get really bored, really fast with at-home workouts, so hopefully this is enough motivation for me.

    I'm starting it, but probably not until Wednesday (1/30). I'm terrified. I'm incredibly out of shape and I suspect this thing is gonna kick my butt.

    I'm probably starting on Thursday or Friday - mine hasn't come in the mail yet. I'm terrified and excited at the same time! :)

    I'm currently on L2D6...Level 2 is so much harder than L1...for me. I'm hoping to complete 30DS by the time I go on my cruise! Love 30DS. Good luck to everyone!

    I'm also looking for more friends/support. Please add me if you wish.

    I'm in! Already did my first day of the 30DS this morning and then saw this post. Even though I wanted to give up 15 minutes into it, I stuck through and feel great! I go to the gym frequently (it's my diet I need to get under control), but even this video kicked by bootay. I need to build some stamina! Looking forward to Day 2 tomorrow!!

    I really hope I can keep it up, I want to be able to do regular push ups for 30 seconds instead of barely being able to do push ups from my knees before I move on the the second level. So i planned to take 14 days for level 1 instead of just 10. And I might change it up with some other workout video's of her that I found :)
    Oh and I measured:
    Arm: 29 cm/ 11,4 inches
    High Waist (smalles part): 85 cm/ 33.5 inches
    Low waist (at belly button): 102 cm/ 40.2 inches
    Hips: 105 cm/ 41.3 inches
    Thigh: 62 cm/ 24.4 inches

    I didn't weigh in yet because I don't really want to focus on weight (though I might weigh at the end of the week), rather on losing a dress size.
