Thanks for reading!

    Can't thank you enough for this post, I've been half heartedly contemplating getting back on to it. I made it to day 9 last time! I will join you starting April 1st :) I am quite competitive so I reckon doing it like this will keep me motivated ha ha.
    lets take measurements etc on day 1 and 30? :)

    Hello this is the 2nd post I'm seeing about the 30 day shred. I am uninformed about this and curious to participate at the same time. Is there a link or info where can I get the instructions on how to do the 30 day shred? Thank you

    Hiya, It's a workout DVD :) I think these links still work http://10000steps.tumblr.com/post/35127397417/here-are-working-links-to-the-jillian-michaels-30-day you can use that rather than buy the DVD :)

    I have already started it. Actually started level 2 this past Friday. However having to sit it out for a bit. Woke up Sundsy and my knee was hurting. Thought it was better Monday morning until I actually moving around. Started hurting worse. Then my son almost fell out of the grocery cart while I was putting my daughter in her carseat and I twised my knee getting to him. So now it really really hurts. I love the workout and so bummed I can't do it right now. Who knows maybe you all will be where I am by the time I can start again.

    I have bad bad knees and had the same problem. I have the DVD but man...I just can't right now! I wish I could! Last time I tried it, I ended up not being able to do anything at all for weeks.

    I wish all of you starting it good luck!

    Hi, my DVD and weights are due to arrive today. This couldn't have come at a better time for me. Can't wait until the 1st though, I go on holiday 5 weeks from today, so I want to do the best I can by then. Hope you don't mind but Id love to join you on the 1st. I'll post my starting measurements and see how I get on. I tried it on You tube on Sunday morning to see if I could do it, and think although it seems like a massive challenge for me I managed 18 minutes of it before collapsing in a heap on the sofa Lol. I've done a little aerobics but no strength training really so it will be hard. I'm 52, 4ft 11 and need to lose around 40 - 50lbs, but more than that I'd love to tone up. So if you don't mind, I'd love to join your group. :smile:

    Well if you feel ready feel free to join us! I am sorry about your knee i have heard of people having that same problem. It must be hard on the knees with all the jumping :\ When you were doing it were you doing the modified or advanced moves?

    Good luck everyone starting in April! I just don't have the attention span to complete a 30 day program, but I did level 2 today, and it was fun. Like to do level 3 some time, and maybe level 2 again. Look forward to seeing your transformations!
