Posts: 86
Hi guys, my name is Rebecca.
I completed the 30 day shred about 3/4 weeks ago and lost 13 inches on total (individual results shown below)! It is noa approaching summer and although I am not going away until September, I am commencing operation bikini body! ok, I sounded really cheesy but I don't care lol - this summer is the summer that I will work hard and get my results and know that I will look good in a bikin - no more of this 'there's always next year attitude'!
I officially started yesterday and have a lot coming up this month so it will take me more than 30 days. If you come acros this thread, a week or month from when I wrote this then still join, all motivation is welcome :-) I had photos from my previous shred but MFP took them off as it was in my underwear, I will take photos in my gym gear and post the final results and measurements once I am done!

I am going to start on June 1st! There was an earlier thread on a challenge group doing it this coming month as well! Great results there! I am really excited (and a tad nervous) about starting but I feel it is exactly what I need to keep things humming along.

I just started day 1 yesterday.. I'm not sure if I'll be doing day 2 today or not.. I may attempt it but my thighs are aching so we'll see how it goes. If anyone else has just started add me and we can motivate each other and compare the aching lol. Have a good day!
and Congrats on the progress!0 -
The pain will go away on about day 5/6, you just gotta push through, I understand that it's hard! Level 2 is BORINGGGGG and you will want to give up so badly but hang in there until level 3 and you will love it, I promise! you will be amazed at the results :-D0
-
Amazing results. I googled the calendar as you suggested and will look into tracking on that. I am doing Level 2 now and I'm happy with it but Level 3 is next week and that should get interesting. I have to say congratulations on doing such a good job. Your stats are incredible. Enjoy yourself.0
-
I will start tonight. I started 30DS a few weeks ago; made it through to day#6 and then fell off as I started concentrating on jogging and had so many social obligations... But, I have my jogging up to 20-30mins at a time now so I suppose I should get back on the Shred! Count me in 0

I am suffering on Level Two. I started on Thursday before bank holiday and then I went away for the weekend, so didn't get into it over the bank holiday and just started again last night. Level Two hates my guts, haha. Willing to push past it and get to and through Level Three though! I'm already considering starting the programme again after I'm done and increasing my weights, so that's got to be a good sign, right?!
Best of luck with it, guys!0 -
I did the 30DS but gave up after 17 days, really need to start again and see it through to the end.
Good luck to everyone that is doing the 30 DS. xx0 -
A commom theme of hating on Level 2 then lol? I know what you mean guys, I had a 2 day break and I forced myself to get back into it because I knew if I didn't start soon again then I would never finish it :-( I had a week and a half off exercise and counting calories and my body is hating me for it now but I am back on it, back walking and hopefully I will be able to stick Jillian Michaels for the next month lol. Life will always be there so if it takes you 30/40 even 50 days and you finish it, you finished it and that's all that matters guys :-) stay strong! xxx0

I started again today, its my 3rd time. I last finished about 3 weeks ago. Ive always done it 30 days straight.
I should get my treadmill on sat and plan on doing c25k so will be doing that too, not sure if ill do 30ds on running days or not, will see what time i have
Tomorrow will be a day off, hopefully ill get out for my run but we're going fishing so wont have time for both.0 -
I have just started this and am managing ok with level 1 I was contemplating moving on to level 2 a bit sooner but I don't know if this is appropriate or if you need to do 10 days of each to benefit. Any suggestions?0

Hi all,
I'm fairly new
I started shredding this week, today is day 3. I've also added about 15/20 minutes of yoga which I've done today and intend to do twice more this week. I also walk three times a week too. I'm eating 1200 calories without exercise but obviously eating more if I am exercising.
I was thinking of doing the 5:2 diet too.0 -
Tomorrow is the last day of level 2 for me, then on to level 3. When did you really start seeing results? Btw I am right there with you about the bikini body, I am getting married in Nov, and would like to wear a bikini at least on my honeymoon!0
-
Awesome results!!! Congrats!0

I saw results at the end of level one, then seemed to stay the same through level 2, and more results close to the end of level 3.0 -
really? my scale showed a gain the first week and i got discouraged and havent weighed since. but feel sooo much better!0
-
I just started (again) last night.
I need to measure my inches to I can track it that way too.
I was definitely cursing at Jillian the whole time. I do find the workouts to be kind of boring, but its less than 30 minutes of my day, thats how I talk myself into doing it.0 -
I started Day 1 yesterday. Finished day 2 today. It helped that I started the C25K 6 weeks ago, so my endurance and cardio is higher than it would have been if I started a month ago. I'll be continuing my C25K and I hope to do the 30 days non stop. We'll see how this goes! Good luck everybody!0
-
I also saw results at the end of level 1, no change in level 2 and then a big change in level 3! And I also gained the first week of doing it too so don't be discouraged :-) I'm sick of the shred and Jillian but it works and it's only 25 minutes, I couldn't ask for more!
We can do this everyone :-D0 -
I just started 30 Day Shred. Today is Day 4 and I can already tell a HUGE difference in my endurance! My only problem is that my knee is killing me today. Has anyone else had knee pain?0
-
Hey!! I'm Tara. I started on Monday. I completed Day 4 today. This is also my 2nd round. 0

I started yesterday as well. And I hurt. I am gonna go for it again tonight, I'm walking around like I got hit by a truck, but I'm in this for real 0 -

Thanks for the motivation! I'm excited for this, it is my first time doing a program, and I like how she changes it up. Right when I can't take anymore of an exercise, it gets switched up.0 -

yeah, my knee gave my trouble in level 2 and I got really worried about it and thought I'd damaged it but I was just added in some light walking and I was fine in level 3! it's the lunges that do it! I'm awful at them because I can't balance at all but she digs them too much!
if the pain gets unbearable then take a rest from the shred and do some other exercise for a few days :-)
to everyone else - I'm glad we're all on level 1 together :-) it's a long 30 days, the first 15 will drag but the last last 15 fly and you be like wow, check me out lol!0 -

no, if course there's no right way! you could do level 3 for 30 days if you want!
just go at your own pace whether that's 5 or 15 days at level 1! some people may think level 1 is easy and won't make any change but for others, it can make a huge difference as its a completely different way of exercising and their body is working muscles it's never used!
the main thing is that you finish so just do what works for you:-)0 -

Good Job! Keep up the good work!0 -
I have been walking every evening. It really helps to keep me from being sore the next day. I did take today off to give my knee a rest. It feels better but still doesn't feel great. Hopefully, I'll be up and going in the morning. I hate to say it but I kind of missed Jillian today. lol0
-
On day 3 today and it's Friday! I think Fridays are the worst because I walk to work so cant get up another hour before I already do to do it and I have to drive home for the weekend which is 90 minutes away and I never feel like working out :-( Going to walk home and hopefully get it over and done with and then pack up my stuff and get home for the weekend! Also, boss has ordered in Dominos for lunch and it's my time of the month so my cravings are hitting the roof! Hope you're all staying strong :-)0

I hate fridays for working out myself! Planned to run for 20 mins and then do the last day of level 2 this morning but only had enough time for the run...so level 2 later tonight! Although all I wanna do on fridays is relax! Hey, does anyone have any advice on what to eat when going to a bar?? There are virtually no healthy options and I feel like their salads always suck!0

Me and my boyfriend used to run at the weekends but I hate running now and I need to do the shred, can't miss a day already!
Amm.. I never really eat out because I'm too afraid to! I'd say maybe a burger minus the bun and have potatoes or something?0
