My 30 Day Shred Results (with pics)

Just like so many others on this website, I finally decided to try Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred last month. So many people saw great results and I was hoping for the same, and boy did it pay off! I started off very nervous because I was certain that I wouldn't be able to do all the exercises. However, as I progressed through the DVD my stamina began to increase and the workouts became more and more manageable. There was also a period of a week or so in the beginning where my weight went up by three pounds. Because I'd been eating the proper calories, I was really worried and almost decided to give up on Jillian but remembered someone saying to focus on the inches lost, so that's what I did. I took one day in between each level to rest, but every other day (even when I would rather do anything else) I worked my butt off, and in the end, I'm really happy I did. I feel so much stronger!

If any of you have any 30DS results you'd be willing to share, feel free to post. I absolutely love looking at everyone's amazing progress!
