    today was day 2 for me. I am doing level 1, and following the modified version

    should I start doing the full level 1, before moving onto level 2, or just move to level 2 and do the modified version of that?

    Day 7 completed, I feel great and even my husband commented today on how much I look like I've lost weight. My back is starting to hurt a wee but , think it's from the anterior raises with side lunge, I must be straining through my back - think I'll down the weights for it tomorrow and see if that helps.
    I took measurements at the start, but no photos - when is everyone doing more measurements? Think I'll try and stick it out until 30 days but just know I'll give in before :)

    Day five DONE! I used 3 lb weights today....MUCH harder than soup cans :) But still doable :) I can actually make it through the situps....Except for the ones where you lift your butt...Can't get the hang of those.

    I've just finished day 7, no weight change at all and my pictures look the same :(

    The measuring tape, however, says I've lost an inch off waist and bust and half an inch off hips for a total of 2.5.

    Optimistic but also worried its not going to work for me like it seems to be for all of you guys :(

    I completed level 1. I see some physical changes (abs are slowly coming back, muscles in the armes and thighs are getting stronger). It motivates to continue!

    Day 8 of level 1 done! Had a really rubbish day and have had no appetite at all but forced myself to do the day - proud of myself that I forced myself to do it. x

    Day 6 level 1 done! I am losing motivation :( But I WILL stick with it :) I think I may do level one for 15 days and then move on (if I am ready)

    I need to find another short cardio video though.....Like a 20 minutes video that is not Zumba, and that you don't need any extra equipment for. Any ideas girls?

    This morning will mark day 6 for me, but I'm doing it every other day as opposed to every day consecutively. I've tried that before but the workout never seemed to get any easier and I eventually gave up at day 23 or so. So this time I'm alternating it with C25K, which I'm actually in the 5th week of. I seriously hate The Shred and dread doing it, but I'm forcing myself because I know it'll give me results that running and other cardio alone wont.

    You can do modified 2 or keep on level 1 ..or switch back and forth..Sometimes I do modified and then some full in the same workout

    I'm going to start the 30 Day Shred tomorrow. This will be my 2nd time doing it. Last time I did it was months ago.
    I'm really looking forward to it this time. Only this time, I'll be watching what I eat.

    I'm doing modified all the way - right now I'm on Level 2. My plan is to get all the way through once, then go back and do it again with fewer modifications and slightly heavier weights, and possibly a third time. BTW, I am also taking Sundays off to recover.

    I am losing weight faster since I added 30DS to my regular cardio (about half a pound a week faster), and I have already lost 4.25 inches in total just from Level 1. **Results may vary, LOL!**

    That's what I plan to do too :) I am hoping I don't finish it and then think that is enough...I want to keep going :)

    Hi everyone! I'm late with joining this thread, but I've just completed day 8 of the shred :) My only missed day was yesterday, but I did a lot of walking.
    I'm actually beginning to enjoy exercise...isn't that strange? ;)

    That's my 10 days of level 1 completed, onto level 2 - contemplating having a rest day tomorrow as my shins are a bit sore.
    Gave in and took some measurements after 10 days - lost almost 7lbs and 4.5" . Over the moon and it's really encouraged me to keep going :)

    AWESOME! That is so good! I can't imagine how rewarding that feels! And only 10 days!

    I am on day 9, moving up to level 2 today. I finally don't hate Jillian anymore, but that will probably change after today's workout! lol I have lost about 4 inches in 9 days, which is what is keeping me motivated, even when my sore muscles are screaming at me to stop!

    I started a little late, but better late than never, right?! ;)
    Anyways, today was L1D1 for me, and I was definitely cursing Jillian!

    Level 1 Day 8 Complete! I took a rest day yesterday because I was traveling all day. Today I felt so amazing during the workout! I also upped my weights on some of the moves (shoulder fly and the bicep curls) from 2.5lb dumbbells to 5lb ones! Overall a great start to week two!

    Today will be may L1 D8, I'm getting a bit nervous about level 2 to be honest as I still really feel level 1! I took pictures and measurements at the start should I repeat at day 10, 20 ,30 etc... Or just at the end? Any thoughts?
