what have you eaten while doing 30 day shred? I believe it comes with a diet plan but I'm bad at those and want to learn to eat healthy in the long run, so I stick to my calorie amount and record it. Anyone else do that?

    I have been doing the shred and I just eat up to my calorie max. I am not following any specific plan I am eating what I want as long as I don't go over. I usually eat oatmeal for breakfast, salad for lunch, I snack with fruit, and I eat various things with dinner but i do make sure I measure and weigh everything.

    When I did the shred (which I loved by the way) I just ate whatever fit into my calories for the day. I don't really do well on a meal plan either. Just stay within your calories and you should be good to go.

    I dont do a month shred, I bulk 6 months Cut 6 months. Just watch the macros and eat under your goals and slay it in weight room

    :D She's talking about Jillian Michaels 30 day shred, a workout video.

    When I did it I just ate whatever I wanted as long as I was under my calories for the day, which at that time was 1700 cals a day.

    I'm doing 30DS and sticking to my regular calorie goal. I also use the calories burned (approx. 250 according to my HRM) to have a protein shake, although I do that on any workout day anyway.

    Meal planning keeps me on track. I sit down once a week, typically Thursday, and plan out all my meal. I shop on Friday and prep on Sat. I'm currently on day 17 of the 30DS and love it. It does come with a plan ( I don't follow, but it sounds delicious). Here is the link for it. http://images.agoramedia.com/jillianmichaels/cms/jillian-michaels-ripped-in-30-meal-plan-v.pdf

    Thank you for the replies! It's good to know people are seeing results with just calorie intake counting. I really like the 30 day shred, am 2 days in and can't wait to be closer to 30 to see some results!
