    30 Day Shred, I didn't lose a lot of weight, but I saw a huge difference in my thigh shape and minimal difference in other muscle tones. I only did about 20 days of the 30 though.

    I think it is more for building endurance and working on light muscle tone rather than major weight loss.

    I JUST finished the first workout....WHEW!! What a burn!!! That kicks my butt more than the weight machines at the gym! If I see better results in 30 days from this, I just may get rid of my gym membership altogether lol

    I just finished the 30 day shred. Lost ten lbs and over 20 in! Most people do each level for w consecutive days. I loved it and am starting ripped in 30 tomorrow with the same group of MFP friends I did the 30ds with. Good luck!!
    I also did other exercises 5days a week. Elliptical bike riding other JM workouts on demand.

    I am on day 2. It is intense but I love it ... Expect to loose inches not pounds though! You will be more toned if you keep up with it though !

    I started the Shred 10 days ago. I did level 1 for 7 days and have done level 2 3 times. It's definitely a great workout! I was curious as to my progress (because my jeans seemed to fit a little better in the legs) so I measured my thighs and they went down 1/4 inch just from 9 days of the Shred. I did my treadmill about 6 days a week also for around 30 - 45 minutes each day, so I'm sure that helped as well. My husband did the Shred with me today and he was sweating :) Best of luck! I'd love to hear everyone's progress :)

    I have it but I just don't have the endurance to stick with it. There's too much jumping in my opinion. but if you like to jump then I bet this would work.

    I am on Day 7 as of today. I did not end my regular gym routine but I lost more weight this past week than I have in one single week since starting my new lifestyle change except for my first week. I missed say a half of day. I started it on Friday but I was just too sick to finish it.

    I started the ripped in 30 last Wednesday and I can say this much.... It was feeling in everywhere by day three! I love the weights portion because I want to start seeing some tone in my upper body. I'm anxious to see results and I have decided I will continue to hit the gym four to five days a week as well. I already watch my food intake but thought it wouldn't hurt to look into the diet that JM proposes. I'll let you know how it goes....

    Side note I read that most people log it as circuit training.

    My review: The 30-day shred is awesome! It definitely helped me tone up, and you'll probably see results in about a week or two if you stick with it. If you use it along with Jillian's 'No More Trouble Zones' DVD, you'll be nicely toned in no time :-).

    I recommend it to all my friends :-).

    I am on day 5 of Shred and love it.. already noticing a difference but I won't officially do my measurements for another 5 days. I log it in as general circuit training but I also do 30-60 min cardio on top of 30DS. I use 2lb dumb bells, however I am thinking about increasing the weight to 4 or 5lbs.

    I just finished the 10th day of 30 Day Shred. The first 2-3 days were hard and I definitely felt it the next day. I did noticed my thighs were more toned just after !0 days so I measured and I have lost 1/2 inch on each!!! YAY! I used 5 lb weights but you can also use 3 lb wieghts. I am starting level 2 tomorrow, I will probably be soar all over again. I also run at least 3 miles 6 days a week and continued to do that even through the 10 days I did 30 DS. I have not noticed any addtional weight loss than just the regular 1lb a week I've been losing, Good Luck!

    OK, count me in...I tried the shred a while back and just couldn't get into it. Now I've lost a few pounds and I know I'm in better shape so maybe I can handle it better.

    I will continue to go to the gym 5 or so days a week...

    My suggestion is to take your measurement and take skin revealing pictures before you start it that way you can see a difference at the end. I have down all three levels but not for 30 days. When you think you have mastered level 1 move on to level 2 and so on. Sometimes I do level 1 and 2 together. I have 5 lbs weights but if you haven't been using weights you might want to start off with 3 or 4 lbs. You will be sore but it is a good sore the next day. For me it was my thighs but others have complained about their arms. Just give it 100% and keep pushing it. Have your water close by and remote so you can hit pause. I do it when I can't go to the gym. You will be cursing Jillian out. But I can see a difference in me and it is totally worth it! I do notice that my knees are sore from the squats. Make sure your form is right. Good luck! I'm sending you a friend request.

    I bought the 30 day shred a while ago. I am going to use it everyday this month. I did a challenge last month to workout for 24 hours, but I didn't meet it. So I am doing that again this month, plus the 30 day shred everyday.
