    I'm on Day 2 Week 4, but I just wanted to say good luck! It is tough, and will kick your butt, but you will feel great! I have really noticed a difference, and am excited to take pictures on Sunday for comparison.

    I just finished Day 21 and Week 3 today, and I also want to wish you all good luck!! I'm finding RI30 more challenging than 30DS but also more fun with less boredom. In the past month I've lost another 5+lbs and dropped almost 5% on my %BF. Of course, I'm also sticking to a clean/primal diet and calorie count, but my fitness level and toning are definitely due to Jillian.

    I just finished Week 1 & had Day 1 of Week 2 today. I like it so far.
    I have been doing Insanity & am about to go into Month 2 on that soon, but I'm increasing my activity & decided to try this. I like it as an addition so far because the slower pace (compared to non stop in your face Insanity cardio) gives me time to concentrate on my form & strength.

    I'm in! I just started RI30 last night, and had to fit in today's workout this morning. I'm used to a combo of running and yoga with rest days in between, so working out with weights while still sore is a new challenge for me. But I'm getting married in a month, so am determined to keep up with it. :smile:

    I am on Week 2 day 2 and it is intense but I am finding out that my body is surprising me by doing things I didn't think it could do. No pounds lost yet but a lot of inches.

    Haha, thanks Angie! :smile:

    Just wondering, are any of you supplementing RI30 with other activities? Am debating whether to continue running/yoga/cycling on some days in addition to this, but don't want to overdo it and burn out. Part of me feels the calorie burn isn't enough with only 30 mins of exercise (I record it as circuit training), and so far I've been going over my daily calorie goal, which is discouraging.

    If this is any help, I use similar (slightly lower) numbers to what this person measured with a heart rate monitor for each week on Ripped. http://www.workingouteatingin.com/calories-burned/

    I've been doing 30 minutes of elliptical after the RI30 workouts. I run 3 days a week so I only do these workouts on the days I don't run. I haven't been following it by week - I did week one 5 times and then move to the next.

    Hi I just started yesterday (Monday) also. Boy am I sore, my legs and my sides, (guess that means its working). I don't follow the accompaning diet plan, just track my calories on MFP, but I also do it with Zumba Abs and do at least 2 sets, reps of 10 wall push-ups throughout the day.

    Jillian promised results if you stick with her, and as sore as I am, I can't see the results not coming unless I eat my way through them.

    So good luck with your 30 Day journey. My co-workers laughed at me this morning when I just kept on saying 28 more days to go as I walked stiffly to and fro in the office.

    I just started Week 2 and it kicked my butt today! I love the video, though, and love Jill- think she is funny and motivating. I am planning on spending 8-10 days per level so will obviously take me more than 30 days to make it through. I'm also doing stair workouts almost daily and alternating jogging with power yoga. I really love that my muscles are getting stronger and my shape is changing, even after just finishing Level 1. So as hard as it is, I am so happy I am doing it!!

    Feel free to add me if you need someone to commiserate with! Good luck! :)

    So hilarious - I hear that! Stiff and sore, mostly in my sides and lower back. But dare I say I feel/see *slight* definition in my arms? Possibly wishful thinking. I went off the wagon last night out with girlfriends. They had queso, people! Not fair. Going to have to try to burn that off with additional workouts this week, but with a girlfriend visiting this weekend who wants authentic Texas BBQ, wish me luck. At home I do fine, but really struggling with the calories when socializing. I guess strengthening your willpower is as big a challenge as any of the videos.
