So I'm on Day 2 of the 30 Day Shred, and it's AWESOME! I'm so sore, but I can tell this workout is amazing. (I tried it after reading so many people on here telling about how great it was.)

One question: As I lurk on the message boards, I keep reading a lot of people saying that they've lost inches but no weight. Have any of you lost weight? I have about 75 pounds more to lose, so I'm highly interested in that scale number going down. I do want to tone, and I'll keep going until I finish Day 30, but I was hoping some people who did it could share their success stories. Anyone? :)

    Sorry.....I lost over 10 inches doing the 30 Day Shred this March.....but I did not lose any weight!!! Not enough cardio!!! I started doing the biggest loser Cardio Max this past week...and lost 1.2 pounds!!!

    The positive thing is that....I DID NOT gain any weight doing the shred!!!! It was hard for me to keep at it...because I like and need the scales to move in my favor!!!!

    I am on day 20 and have lost 4 lbs along with inches. I can also notice a huge difference in the muscle tone in my legs.

    I'm on day 2 too! Maybe we could do it together and compare progress? :D

    Either way, I can try to remember to let you know what my results are...

    The not gaining is helpful. :) I've been dieting & working out since 2/14, but I've moved to a pretty strict diet of mostly veggies and fruits for a week and a half now. Do you mind me asking about your food intake while you did the 30DS?

    THIS! The cardio max is amazing. I do this following the 30 Day Shred a few times a week, and it really helps wth the weight loss! =)

    Today is Day 29 for me. I did 10 days on Level 1 then 10 days on Level 2 without having any break days. I have lost weight and inches.

    My Start Weight: 164
    My Current Weight: 153

    I have been eating well during the 29 days also which really is something you have to do if you want big results.

    I feel alot stronger and have ALOT more definition in my arms and legs. I'm going to post all my final stats when I am done tomorow :)

    Good Luck

    I'm on Day two of Level Two today. I have lost weight, but I haven't been doing exclusively 30 Day Shred. I've also been doing two days a week at the gym on the treadmill and elliptical and one day of another cardio workout.

    Yes you will lose weight. I did the 30 day shred last year. I lost the weight fast but I did not have that much to lose. I am very active but in the winter I always put on extra pounds. By spring time I always lose it. I love Jillian Michaels. Every once in a while I will workout with her DVD. I have a few of her DVD's. Right now i am using the Tracy Anderson mat workout DVD. My body has made drastic changes. You might want to try that one next. Good luck!

    I am combining 30 Day shred with extra cardio (walk/jogging). My goal is 500 cal burn a day so I can't get that with just the video. If you are using it with good nutrtion and have 75lbs to lose I think that you would lose regardless.

    Good luck!

    I thought I was the only one and that I was doing something wrong.

    I am just finished Day 1 Level 1 and I was wondering some of the same things. Since you just started as well we can keep each other motivated as well because I have about 90 lbs I want to lose

    I'm convinced this whole process is 80% diet and 20% exercise!

    Also, remember that even if you don’t lose weight while doing the Shred (or any other resistance program), the lean muscle mass you put on WILL help you burn more fat in the weeks to follow. Muscle mass is your friend. So build strength, build muscle, and know that the weight will drop in time. Adding muscle means working smarter. Every pound of muscle burns 50 calories a day! Every pound of fat…just sits there.
