Good luck ladies! Tomorrow is my last day of Ripped.....did Day 4 of Week 4 today! I joined a group on here for the month of June and we hung in there together! She's Jillian so you know what you're in for! I loved it though....even more than the 30DS! Keep it going.....your 4 weeks will be up before you know it.....1 day at a time!

were can i get the cd pls

I know it's the 1st already, and I likely won't be able to start until tomorrow (the 2nd) but I'm willing to do this. I got the DVD over a month ago and haven't even taken the DVD out of the case. :blushing: I have almost all Jillian's DVDs, but I only really like one (Burn Fat, Boost Metabolism). Hopefully I'll like Ripped in 30 as well. :happy:

were can i get the cd pls

I brought mines on Amazon. They might also have them at any place you can buy dvds.

Time to Rip it!!

ferrferr... BFBM's a good one. I enjoy Jillian without weights. Haha. :happy: As long as you start tomorrow, latest, you're gonna be fine! :drinker: No pressure.

I started this morning july first and just found this group! I m in!!! lets get ripped! So exited. Hope I ll make it!

Hey all...
Ok, I just finished 30ds, I haven't taken my "after" pictures yet, but I will do that and post.

For now, here are my starting & finishing measurements for that. (Finishing measurements also being my starting measurements for RI30)

30DS
height 5"1 and a little bit....sadly I did not grow lol
weight 126.3 - 125.2
chest 32 (n/c)
bra band area 29 - 27
waist 29 - 27
belly (where pants sit) 34 - 32
hips 37 - 36
R Thigh 22 - 21
L Thigh 22 - 21.5
R arm 10 - 10.5
L arm 10 - 10.5

Overall i'm quite pleased! My goal for RI30 is to continue toning up that belly pooch area and building up my upper body strength. I used to think I needed to get back down to about 115ish to feel better (As I said in a previous post, I now work a desk job and have put on a little over 20lbs...which when you're short really shows) however, my weight did not really change with 30ds, but my body has, and I think I like that even better! I've put away my scale and am concentrating on how strong I feel now.

Day 1 later today....yikes! I will be able to get in a few days before I head to the cottage with no TV, at which point i'll be falling behind you all!

W1D1 completed! Do we enter it as circuit training? It says I only burned 189 calories, according to MFP… I know it is only 20 minutes but I sure felt like I was working harder than that! lol

If you haven't done the video yet, be sure you have your remote to pause for water breaks. Jillian stops for nothing!!!!

W1D1 done...
It wasn't easy by any means but I definitely found it much easier than W1D1 of 30ds!!!! I don't know if it's that i'm more in shape or if 30ds was just THAT brutal lol

W1D4 done! PTL!

I just started Ripped in 30 on June 28; today is Day 4 of Week 1 for me! I'm excited to see the results at the end of this. The 30 Day Shred didn't give me all the results I wanted, but I did still lose inches. However this time around, I feel like Ripped in 30 is going to kick my *kitten* - seeing as I have been dripping in sweat afterwards haha.

What body parts should we measure?

(Kind of scared...)

Really, wherever you're interested to see a difference, there's no right or wrong place to measure ) I'm going for left and right thigh (widest part), hips (widest part, right round the butt - oh dear ;o) belly at widest part (that troublesome muffin top pouch!) belly at the belly button, chest at bra line and left and right bicep.

Since Jillian's workouts are so comprehensive for all the different body parts, you're likely to see a change in as many as all of those places, but as we all lose at different rates, you may see more loss in some places and none at all in others.

Thanks! I weighed myself for the first time in about four years last night, and did all of the measurements. I just finished W1D1 with a burn of about 300 (as per my HRM, before BMR is subtracted).

I'm excited to see results!

Hey all! I did W1D1 today after work! (I even threw in some Zumba after just for punishment.) :laugh:

I love how she says at the end that it's not about being perfect, it's about effort. I feel it wasn't massively intense, but since I haven't lifted any weights for 2 months, it was great; a nice way to ease me back in and still get a nice sweat on!
