    I started it! But only made it ten minutes in before I got lightheaded and dizzy. :-/
    I'm SO out of shape, plus i made the mistake of not eating first. I won't do that tomorrow.

    Today's day 3 for me, I'm a Sunday-start kind of person. Couldn't even sit down without pain! My lowers body definitely feels it working :)

    It took me allllll day to finally do this workout (started at about 8:30pm) but now, finished and showered and high on endorphins ^_^

    off for a walk with the boyfriend (who hilariously did this workout with me today:D) and the mutt to pick up some pizza. perhaps this is counter-productive... but.. deliciously so.

    I have plantar fasciitis and it is horrible. I wear inserts in my shoes, but they only help so much. Thinking surgery might be in my future. I do the best I can with it. The jump rope part kills my left foot especially so I found that if I just do a "run in place" for that segment, I can get through it with the same amount of sweat and less foot pain. I can push through the pain of the sore muscles from being new to the exercise, pushing through the pain of the plantar fasciitis is not nearly as easy to do.

    I think it was the jumping rope that made it hurt to the point that I decided to stop. Running in place is a good idea. I think I'll try that!

    This weekend, I hiked on Saturday and felt it but didn't know what it was. I purposely stepped in rocks in an effort to "massage" my foot. Then on Sunday, when I was running, it hurt more. It doesn't hurt when I get out of bed so I'm not 100% that it's PF. I'm going to do stretches and roll my feet on a ball just in case.

    Well I gave it my best shot- but was unable- will need to be more fit before I am able to complete it all. But I will continue to push myself as hard I can on it everyday. It might take me a year, but i'll get it done.

    Hello, I just joined hoping to find others who would be willing to do Jillian's 30 day shred challenge. I've never joined a fitness online group before and thought it was time to branch out. All my friends think I'm crazy but it's been a long, cold winter in MA and I gained 25 lbs and feel so uncomfortable. I saw Jillian's 90 Day Body Revolution but didn't want to spend the $90 so I found her 30 day shred dvd at Walmart and figured why not. What's 30 days. I plan on starting the challenge on Monday, April 7, 2014. Anyone else interested who hasn't started yet?

    Day 2 = DONE! Those push ups kill me...and, I need better bras for all of these jumping jacks! Good Job, ladies!!!

    First thing I did after trying it the first time was to buy a sports bra. LOL

    I made it through today, but one of my knees is killing me. Strangely enough, after I got to work and was standing for a while, it was better. Sitting down later in the day made it hurt again. My body is weird!

    Just finished day 4! I was 48 calories over my daily goal but I feel like I earned it with those damn side lunges w/ shoulder raise... (the worst part!!!)

    I'm done with Day 1. I have to say that the Side Lunges With A Shoulder Raise destroy me. I was dying in those 30 seconds but made it through with plenty of sweat. I'm also following Anita on most of the moves except cardio. Push ups are also a killer but hopefully by the end of the shred I'd have mastered the proper way of doing them.

    I'm off to the gym now....Good Luck guys and please remember to drink plenty of water. It does wonders not just for weight loss but for our skin too :-)

    I HATE the side lunges with shoulder raise. Good to hear you made it through!


    again... SIDE LUNGE W/ SHOULDER RAISE IS THE WORST!!! :-p I wish it was in the first strength segment, I think I would hate it less then...

    I started yesterday, so today was day 2 for me. My thighs really hurt, whatever muscle that is in there.

    I can't freaking do a single pushup. It's like my arms are incapable of bending in that way. I did wall push-ups instead. I also cannot do the bicycle crunches. Not only do I not have the core strength to raise my legs and crunch simultaneously, I also lack the co-ordination to move my leg and my torso in sync.

    Day 1 of 30DS DONE! I'm so excited to be doing this. I'm really looking forward to seeing what kind of results we all get. Congrats to everyone and let's do it again tomorrow!

    Oh, and I would like to add...it's amazing how much I can sweat in just 20 minutes!!
