    Day 3 of level 1 completed! Yesterday, I was soooooo sore. Oh my goodness it was awful. Today I'm more stiff than sore. Going into those lunges hurt something horrific. Felt a bit better by the time I was done & was able to stretch.

    Anyone else take measurements on day 1? I did & hope to remeasure weekly to see how it's going. Weighing daily but I'm about ready to chunk that thing in the trash at this point.

    Completed day 3 level one just now.... I almost gave up. But my boyfriend was home (who is so in shape its disgusting!) And I just couldn't let him see me give up yet again. Wanted to cry but pushed through, now to find the energy to make it to/through spin class tonight!

    Oh and I took "before" photos today and I'm about to do measurements cause I forgot to do those!


    Keep up the hard work everyone! We can do this!!

    I am thinking of starting the 30 Day Shred this weekend or sometime next week. It will be my first time. I am posting this to see if anyone wants to start with me and become friends for motivation and support. I have been in that Rut feeling the last couple of days. I need that BOOST! So if anyone is interested you can add me and we can support and motivate each other.

    I am glad I found this topic here :)

    Hi, just found this thread, I did this for the first time last summer but quit halfway through level 2, got really upset with myself for doing that! so after a few months of being really lazy I decided to give it another and did my day 1 on Monday 27th January (it just about killed me!). I took measurements and pictures and made a note of my weight,
    Anyway this morning was my day 4 and because I am so impatient i had a cheeky measure after, I know I shouldn't but can't help it! I have lost 2.5" in four days :happy: so that gave me the motivation i needed to push through the aching tomorrow.
    I know I haven't lost any weight but don't expect to because of the water retention you get when your muscles are repairing themselves, I know that the weight will go eventually and because of that I am more focused on the actual measurements rather than a number on the scale.
    So impressed that I have already shed those inches though and the workouts are getting easier, I also have a lot more energy.
    Good luck to everyone else doing it! :smile:

    I just started the 30 day shred today! It killed me. I chewed Jillian out, in between breaths. Every time I sit down and get up, I can still feel it.

    I'm not really looking forward to tomorrow, because I don't have any place to work out other than the living room and I live in an apartment with 2 other people. I guess I'll have to do it at night, but Sunday... I am not sure (Super Bowl party).

    I have never really stuck to a program, and I have a hard time cooking "light." Does anyone have any tips on cooking light, that a family would like?

    I saw that someone had logged it as general circuit training. I did the same. Hopefully that works. If not, someone enlighten us, please! :)

    I've been doing it for 9 days straight! I haven't had any issues. I have found in the past if I take a day off I lose all motivation.

    I feel like I'm always finding excuses. I wanted to start 30 ds today but work got crazy and I went to mcdonalds for lunch so I feel like working out tonight is a waste.
