    I would love to join this group and start in the AM. It certainly helps when someone else understands how tough the workout is.

    Level 1 day 3. Things are so sore! The jumping jacks were killing the muscle that goes to the armpit across my chest (peck muscle?) I am so glad it's only 20 minutes because it's so painful! lol

    Level 1 day 4 complete. I'm not doing the Jillian videos exclusively because I like to mix it up. Did a nice 5 mile hike this weekend and a killer Zumba class. Took Monday off as a rest day and missed out on Tuesday work out due to just being too tired.

    I'll most likely stick to Level 1 through the next week. At the beginning of tonights video I was thinking of jumping to Level 2 on Monday, but by the end of the video I was out of breath and not keeping up. Want to make sure I can successfully complete Level 1 before moving on.

    Also as another poster noted some of the cardio moves are more jarring than others. If I don't like the move she's doing or it's uncomfortable for me I'll switch it up to something I like. I'll do butt kicks instead of jumping jacks.

    taking today off - going dancing tonight!

    To the person who was having leg pain, listen to your body! Definitely substitute the high impact stuff with so other cardio that doesn't hurt. I don't do the butt kicks because they hurt my knees, but I do something else instead.

    I was wondering about the yoga video - will try it! I like that it is 30 minutes - I get bored after that. Even with 30DS I turn the volume way down, just check the screen to keep up with the changes, and listen to podcasts instead.

    Yeah, I think I'll pop my bike on the trainer and just do big ring, high intensity pedaling for the two minutes of cardio. I hate the trainer, but two minute intervals will be fine....and better than hurting!

    Level 1 day 9 complete today and I've took my measurements too. So far I've lost half an inch from my waist and 3/4 of an inch from my widest part! Oh and a quarter inch from each arm! Everything else has stayed the same but I'm pleased so far :)

    I will have to check my measurements this weekend. I know the scale hasn't changed but I feel much better overall. Did not get too out of breath at dance class last night, which was a change!

    I'm doing this now too - did day 3 today. I like the cardio stuff but hate the push-ups, even the modified version. Also don't like the bicycle crunch things, but mainly because I'm not really sure how to do them!
    Feeling great doing it though, looking forward to day 4!

    Am I too late to join? I'm on level 1 day 5 (again). I did this DVD but stopped after 20 days. I did lose 17lbs though. Having said that I've put 14 back on (must say no to those creamy cocktails in the summer evenings)! Hoping being part of a group will motivate me to continue for the whole 30 days.
