    I completed the shred last year so I already have the DVD and weights. Been looking for a June challenge. I'm in!

    ShootingStar what were the results like, and how did you find it?

    Not ShootingStar, but I did it last summer - in 30 days, I lost about 8 pounds and several inches all over. I repeated it for an extra 20 days, alternating days 2 and 3, and in 50 days lost 12 pounds and (IIRC) 7.5-8 inches.

    Hi Gemmi - Krogers had much better results than I did... nice work! I lost a few lbs and a few inches all over, but was still recovering from a bad knee injury so I had to dial down the intensity quite a bit on the first time thorugh this plan. I really loved the program though, and plan to hit it harder this go round. The only draw back was the repetition... 10 days is a long time to listen to the same video over and over. I just put Jillian on mute and turn on some music, and each workout seems to go really fast. I hope you enjoy it!

    Day 1 done (yesterday) and I am sore in the shoulders and chest. My legs and butt not so much, so I need to follow Natalie a bit more closely than Anita today!

    Thanks for the information concerning the calories. :smile: Now I just have to estimate it for my weights and measures.

    What weights do you most use? I use two 3 lbs weights.

    Oh, and starting Day 2 of 30. Feeling pretty good after yesterday's exercise.

    This morning I started Day 1 of Level 2. It was intense!! So much harder than level 1 but I felt great after.
    Even though I am a little bit ahead I figured I would post anyway. Good Luck everyone!

    Ok day 1 done. Good news is that it wasn't nearly as hard as I was expecting. Still tough. I did take a couple breaks to catch my breath. The jump rope kills me. Every. Time. 29 days to go...

    I started this tape about 3 weeks ago, not everyday but trying for 2-3 says a week. I've done levels 1-2, not 3 yet. Love these works ours, they kick my *kitten*.... Just got the Biggest Losers 30 day Power X-Train today, did my first workout, little different, but just as good!! Between the two it's enough to keep it interesting!!

    I just finished day 2 of level 1. I may have to adapt the cardio portion some. I seem to have a very sensitive calf muscle in my left leg that feels like it "snaps" like a rubberband if I do too much jumping around. I did a lot of punching and gentler leg motion to keep heart rate up. I'm thinking more stretching before hand and such may help it. All in all though, just the weights and abs portion alone is more than I was doing so I expect results even if I have to take down the cardio some...

    I'm also on day 2 of level 1 and I think I may have to adjust as well-I had surgery on my knee and had a plate and screws put in several years ago and the jumping jacks feel truly awful.

    I think the workout will definitely give me positive results though because my activity level before this was pretty much zero.

    So just as an FYI, I ended up injuring my calf muscle and have to wear a boot for a week or 2 while it heals doing yesterday's 30 day shred. My calf muscle had ocasduonally been tweaking a bit during my walk/run routine but jumping jacks did it. If you have had any muscle issues before starting 30 day shred, just be sure to stretch and warm up before you start the dvd :). I'm going to continue doing it with all upper body cardio only during the cardio times :).

    Day 2 of level one completed, last night. Definitely better. I incorporated the weights. I only have a 5lb set. I think they are a little too much to start out with so I think I'm going to try using them every other day. I also cut my grass so bonus cardio :)

    Day two of level one completed with one kilo hand weights! Made my sister in law do it with me this morning for added motivation. Have got an extra three work outs to catch up this week.
