    I got mine last night but by the time I was able to get around to checking it out, it was after midnight and i had no interest in doing it. However, I did want to make sure it worked okay due to some issues i have been having with my bluray player (needed to make sure it was a disk problem not a machine problem... This is information you needed...okay probably not) I put it in to play it. I was laying on the exercise mat in front of the tv doing some of the exercises, and mostly being a play ramp for my dog (who is all of 5 pounds on her fat days btw) I started trying to see if i could even do the reverse crunches... beyond that was NOT properly dressed to be doing any of this, I totally wish that i had a video camera to show the dog's reaction to this. Hilarity... really.

    This is going to be a problem when I do this for real...lol. Floor time for mama means play time for The Daisy! ;-)

    Unless someone knows how to make a group, I guess we will have to check in here. How is everyone doing? Has anyone started yet?

    I might join you but it will not be until Jan 4th as I am out of town until then. I get to pick out my christmas gift from my inlaws and it is going to be exercise videos. So I will check this one out.

    It's something like $9 on Amazon. I paid to have mine delivered supah fast... i figured i was willing to spend more on it anyway, so might as well pay the extra for the shipping. ;-)

    Definitely a problem for me too. My kitties kept thinking it nap on mommy time when I tried mine. I'll have to put them up in another room if I actually hope to accomplish anything lol

My gym's babysitting is closed today and tomorrow and I have my 3 babes at home with me so if the babysitting is closed, I am unable to get to the gym :( So instead of having 2 days of not much exercising, I am going to start the DVD today......I will check in to tell how it was.....wish me luck! :D

    I'm so glad I found this post! Hubby and I decided last week to start the 30 Day Shred on Jan 1, but he's already bailed on me!

    I want to tighten up (and lose weight, but right now I'd settle for being tighter, especially having better arms) before our cruise in February!

    flems629 good luck! I'll start tomorrow before going out for new year! I figured it's better to start of the first day of 2011 with a bang. Although I might be sore for the whole weekend lol.

    I'm in! I did the 30day shred off and on the past couple of months but wasn't really consistent with it. This group will really help with that!
    I'll check in tomorrow :)

    It was hard and I worked up a sweat!!! Im already sore too.................gl to everyone tomorrow. It seems you do the same work out consistently until you are ready to up your levels.

    Okay, sounds good!:happy: I started before, but well didn't make the 30 days:frown: ! LOL

    The thing I noticed is that it doesn't tell you when to go to the next level, maybe I missed that part.:huh: I wasn't sure, since there are 3 levels how long each level is suppossed to be...anyone know?

    I'm really excited about starting over. I have re-done the kids "playroom" and now have my tv and dvd player set up so that I have a "set" place to exercise. Hopefully the treadmill will be up soon! Kids are really excited about the change.

    Looking forward to Shredding with everyone!!! :drinker:

    I just got this for Christmas. I have been doing it for the last week and already I feel great! The scale hasn't moved yet :( , but I definitely feel stronger (I just need some patience). I think I could keep this up for a month...beats getting ready to go the gym after a long day at work. I am in as well :)

    Well after day one I am sore! I was really skeptical about how well it would work but Jillian put me in my place lol

    I think you are "supposed" to do each level for 10 days then move on up.

    GL to everyone today, looking forward to seeing how everyone likes it :D

    Just finished my first day. Hufff it was harder than I remembered it to be. But that means the muscle is working its way out right? ;)

    Good luck today guys! :)

    I just finished the first session of LVL 1 - what am I meant to do tomorrow, the same section again of move on to LVL 2?

    BTW, I'm well out of shape!! I paused it a few times and even skipped a couple of activities to catch my breath - as a result my total duration was 33 min with average HR 143 and max HR 188.

    This is going to be tough but worth it :)

    Just continue doing level 1 until you feel you're ready to move up in intensity.


    I actually started a little early and today will be day 4 for me. The morning of the second day before my workout, I was sore all over. The third day, not as much. Today, even less so.

    It's definitely my first workout of the morning just so I can get it over and done with for the day. :D

    I did level 1 this morning. It's harder than I thought it would be, but I don't feel sore yet. I did have to take a couple of breathers but I think after a few days I'll be fine. Love that it's only 25 minutes! I wish I knew how many calories I burned.

    I started today and feel invigorated. I love the 3-2-1 aspect of it. I started this shred last March and got halfway into it before I let my busy working mom excuse stop me. I found that by day 7 I was bored and feeling good enough to jump to level 2. I think that it doesn't say when to move between levels because everyone will work at their own pace. One thing i did do is on days that I wasn't really excited about doing the workout, I would go back to level 1 for a little easier workout.

    Good work everyone. It would have been easy to blow this off today, but knowing that I wanted to keep up with everyone on this really helped with the motivation!

    Just finished day 4 and I definitely notice a difference in my endurance level. The coming days will only get easier, I'm sure.
