    I bought this DVD last week and started it on Friday, but over the weekend I got lazy and didn't do it again until today!!! I found it much easier when I did it BEFORE my cardio LOL!!! I'll continue on with the program, my goal will be on level two this day next week!

    I'm a day late but i would love to join the group. I've had the DVD since last year, I found it really hard so I gave up on the workout. That was then. This is now. I have already lost some weight so my first day was okay. My legs were burning that's for sure. This is a good change and it adds variety to my cardio. I look forward to some great results from myself and everyone else!

    I am not doing the shred every day but every other day.. when I was doing it every day I gained weight, maybe fronm all the weights (3lbs) movements...

    i'm so glad you posted this. i gained an annoying two pounds this week, and i'm telling myself it's because i'm 'bulking up'. ha! but i've been eating well, so it very well could be true.

    i think every other day might be the way to go, and on off days i'll do a bunch of cardio.

    but here's a small victory: i've now done the dvd 3 times (not counting once several weeks ago); i did level 1, then level 2, and just got finished with another level 1. and with a week, i've already noticed a MARKED difference in how hard the arms stuff is (that's where i'm a lot weaker). the leg stuff is easier too. and i'm way less sore than after the first time. i'm not seeing drastic results in the mirror yet, but i'm definitely convinced i'm getting stronger already! YAY! :happy:

    Hi all! I started the 30DS on Monday too. I've done Monday and Tuesday, but skipped today. I'm shooting for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday this week. Thanks for starting the thread.

    That is what I have been doing...alternating day between shred and cardio (walking/jogging) the next..it has helped me so much..I have already lost 4 pound this week alone.

    when I was doing the Shred, about a month ago today, I was doing it every single day. I, like you, need more help with arm strenght and noticed my arms less flabby. I do like the program and it has changed my body (made it a little tighter, all over) within the first ten days. I lasted 20 days on the program before I fell off so I restarted back to level one.

    if you stick with it, at your own pace, you will see results...best success to all!!!

    Hey shredders! I'm hoping to work up the nerve to give level 1 another go today.

    But... Jillian's got some 'splaining to do... I've definitely gained almost 4 lbs just this week. My calories are... fairly... under control, certainly not enough overboard for that much gain! I'm starving all the time, craving carbs (which I don't eat much of, usually, since I have a gluten problem and there's gluten in most carby things). I think I need a little encouragement over here, is that shameless? :blushing:

    On the bright side, I've had tons of energy :) so that's a plus!
