I dont know about everyone else...but what I plan on doing is writing a brief blog daily after i do the shred...
day one blog will include starting weight and measurements
day 2 - 10 will be updates what time of the day i did the exercise and what i thought...
day 11 (first day of the next level) will be when i post updated measurements and weight as well as my thoughts on the second level....
day 12 - 20 same as day 2 - 10
day 21 same as day 11..
day 22 - 29 same as day 2 - 10 and 12 - 20
day 30...final comparison before and after pictures with final weight and measurements
This is just an idea and how i plan on tracking my progress...i will post a link to my blog daily in this thread also...but it will be easier for me to keep track of my own progress if i can check my blog on this website!
Good luck everyone i just picked up the dvd tonight right after work...im excited and cant wait
(just so you all know this will be my starting point in my weight loss preparation for my upcoming wedding in june 2012..

I would like to join in. I treid to do this in march but picked up a knee injury, which caused me to have to drop out,
I'll post my measurements before I do the shred.
You can pick up a copy of the shred on ebay, play or amazon - mine was £5 here in uk.
Good luck everyone.

Ok SO I have the tape too... are you supposed to do it everyday?0

ohhh ohhh i am in ... but no pics ... lol ...0

So, I usually start work at 5AM so I get up at 3:45 already, so getting up earlier is NOT an option..:laugh:
I plan on doing this daily anywhere from noon to 6PM. I plan to do ten days of each level total. I may mix them up though..
Like:
1,1,1,2,1,2,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,2,3,2,3,3,3
or something similar, like gradually introduce 2, doing 1 and 2 for a bit, then introduce 3, swapping between all 2 till my 10 ones run out, then swap between 2 and 3 till my 2's run out, and finish with 3.
Tomorrow, however, I don't have to be AT work until 6:30, so that's an extra hour and a half. I'm thinking I will stay in bed a half hour longer than usual just because I can. Then do level 1, shower and change for work, and I'll be right on schedule, with a workout in the bag! :happy:0 -
awesome plan robin...i dont think i could do mine in the morning as i would wake up my fiance AND my dog haha
after work each night is my plan...i get off work at 3:30 usually and am alone for the majority of the night as my fiance works shifts right now...so lots of time to get the shred in!0 -

I would love to be able to work out in the mornings, but it's not possible when you run a Dunkin Donuts...and oh the temptations!!!!:laugh:
Your woman is beautiful by the way! :flowerforyou: And I just noticed your weight is about the same as my honey and your goal weight is about where I would like to see him, although HE has NO goals and is fine eating crap and growing larger.:grumble:0 -

I'm in but I am already on day 2. Is that ok? I also will mix it up a bit because level 1 is a little slow and level 2 is a little hard lol. I doubt I will jump to level 3 till 14 days though.
I also belong to the gym and I have to classes that I love so I have to keep the, up. I am trying to change things upna little with the 30DS to define stuff that is not changing.

I can try and keep up to date with my measurements but I don't own a scale. I go back home every couple of weeks and borrow my mums. Just really hoping to see a difference in my lower waist area mainly, and arms.
But yeah this group is a great idea, just hope I make it on to the levels in good time0 -
I'm in! Starting Wt.- 134. Will take measurements and before photo tomorrow and post later. May not check in daily, but I will try to check in frequently. Good luck everyone! Alright, let's do this!0

I'm going to throw in the peanut galleries 2-cents worth (I'm the peanut gallery, BTW ). I would love to join this group, but my time is very tight - I'm just getting some down time right now but wanted to post some inspiration for all those about to do this.
I ordered JM's "30-Day Shred", "No More Trouble Zones" and "Six-Week Six-Pack" from Amazon a couple weeks ago. I started them all (not at the same time... except for the first day since I needed to know what I was getting into!) since I really notice a difference in my body when I mix up my workouts (everything from Cardio, Dance & Strength, to Yoga, Tai'Chi, Kickboxing & Tae Bo). I have only done JM's DVD's a few times & ALREADY have seen a difference... in only 1 week!! Not necessarily "weight" loss, but how I look, feel & how my clothes fit (I don't trust the scale since I'm building muscle as I lose fat & the scale does not seem to understand this !).
If you keep up with her program you will DEFINITELY see a difference; push past the fatigue that comes in the first 10 mintues & your second wind WILL kick in & you suddenly feel great, on top of the world, like you could keep this going forever! OK, maybe not forever, but at least till the end of the DVD :laugh:
Good luck to you all - I KNOW you will see FANTASTIC, Fab-You-Loss results. Don't ever give up, keep this in your mind that you CAN & WILL do this & KNOW you will look even better when you are done :flowerforyou:0 -
OOOhhhhh, I want in!! I'm so new to this weight loss thing I had to google it to see what it was! I'll buy the video tomorrow and start feelin the burn before the weekend : )0
-
I'm in! I just finished the my first 30 days yesterday, but I want another run at it!0
-
im in!!!! hello april 1st!0
-
I have the 30DS dvd and I have had it for months. On day one I was only able to do 10 minutes if level one. It kicked my @$$. Day 2, 13 minutes of level one. Has anybody else have this issue by not being able to get through the 1st level at all in the first 2 or 3 days?
BTW I am going to retry this. I dont have measurments yet but I will get them.0 -
I am new here, and I love the motivation and accountability this sight gives you! I bought this DVD tonight, when I got home and seen this Challenge-- I took it as a sign! I am so in. I will post pics and measurements tomorrow and start the workout in the P.M.0

YES!!! I've done it one and off for a week and I'm finally able to finish with little breaks here and there ....don't give up its so worth it ...when you first finish its like I DID IT !!! Its a nice feeling of accomplishment .... u can ...if I can u can ...I'm not fit at all never worked out b4 and don't really claim to ... its not easy but it gets better0 -
I'm for sure in!0

Day 1 done!
Starting weight: 109.2
waist - 27 (goal 26)
hips - 33.5 (goal 32)
thigh - 21 (goal 20)
bicep - 10.5 (no loss needed, will even take a gain there!)
Did it at about 5:30 AM with 3 lb weights all the way through, no stopping, modifying moves ONLY on the second set of pushups (I put my knees down for the second set).
However, I never work out in the morning on an empty stomach and I do NOT like it. I think I will stick to the afternoons. I feel nauseas. I usually have a nice breakfast before work, egg whites and multigrain toast, or oats with fruit...now I feel like I don't want to eat! But I know I have to or work will suck.0
