I know there are lots on ongoing threds about JM 30 day shred. I started today spontaneously. I know its unusual to start something like this in the middle of the week in the middle of the month, but I just felt I could get through it today. I tried to start it twice before and couldn't make it through. I was proud I made it through. I am looking for a few other shred friends, so if you started today or this week, let me know how it's going and we can support each other.

    I'm new here. What is a 30 day shred?

    It's a workout DVD by Jillian Michaels (Biggest Loser) that is supposed to tone you and bring results in only 20 minutes a day if you do it every day for 30 days.

    Oh, and I (re)started it on Tuesday! So far, so good! :o)

    Come on people!! You can do it!! We have the motivation. Just have to stick with it. :wink:

    I started yesterday and I was expecting to be a little sore but wasn't. I've been exercising for a while so maybe I need to increase the weights I use. I will keep at it though cause I love the motivation. We will see at the end :)

    Started yesterday (level 1- first timer) and today was tough because my legs killed (OUCH!) But I am hoping it works since I have a goal set that I want to meet on Aug 2nd!

    I can use/need any support out there- I can find any excuse to NOT workout!

    I just double checked my exercise log. Turns out I did day 3 today. Not day 2. It's all just a big blur I guess. Lol.

    I'm about to start L1D1 as soon as I log off (:
    I'm really looking foward to finding people who will stick too it so we can compare results. I'm not sure how many days a week I'll do it (as much as I can manage) since people are saying it's a butt-kicker. But I've started my blog for results.

    Awesome way to track your progress.. I find that it holds me accountable and wanting to do better if I measure and tell people about it. Good luck!!

    I have the DVD and have been wanting to start.. maybe this is my motivation right here!!

    Thanks!

    Thank you! Good luck to you as well! I wish I was a morning person so I could do it early in the day hehe. But I'm off now to get some whooping from Jillian Michaels (and listen to what I've heard very annoying music).

    Count me in - I did it earlier this year and although only lost 2lbs it was great for toning and losing inches!

    I did D1 yesterday, a bit sore today. I'm looking to do it straight through this time, although am going away later this month....

    Starting stats:

    Weight: 63.1kg
    Waist: 68 cm
    Hips: 80 cm
    L thigh: 54 cm
    R thigh: 55.5 cm
    Round bum: 91.5 cm

    Will remeasure at end of L1!

    Good luck to you (:

    I did Day 2 this morning right when I woke up. I wasn't sore this morning at all! That is surprising because when I first tried to start a couple of months ago I only made it half way through and then the next two days I could barely walk. That is a testiment to how hard I have been working doing other things in that time.

    I was excited because I made it all the way through the warm-up without my heart rate monitor beeping at me that I was already overexerting. Pretty sad huh, but my HRM is set with a pretty low range so I regular overexert according to it. I still had a hard time doing all the reps of each thing but I just slow down a little and keep going.

    The best part is after I finished yesterday I didn't feel good. I felt like I had overdone it a little. This morning after finishing I just feel good, like you should after exercise. That is a very good feeling.

    Keep with it everyone! We can do this. Don't know if I can do it tomorrow because I have to work all day, but I will try. If not, back at it on Sunday probably with a little more cardio thrown in. Happy Friday!

    Today's my day 2 as well, so random to start mid week, mid month but so what....at least it's a start! this is my first time trying the program but I have a feeling I'm going to really like it, it's a super speedy work out!
    keep me posted on your progress it's always motivational to hear how everyone else is doing, totally gets me pumped to stick to my work outs.

    Congrats on your current 51 lbs of weight loss that's so Amazing!

    Just finished Day 3 of Level 1 and it is getting a little easier!! My legs are still killing me but I am pushing through!! Think I will take tomorrow off and do something else to give my legs a little break but who knows...will just have to wait and see how I feel tomorrow! I tried doing it the evening today to see if that helps with the leg pain the next day...will update on that in the AM! Way to go everyone that is sticking to it!

    I was going to do Ripped in 30, but since I've not done ANY of my JM workout DVDs in more months than I care to admit I think I'll start with 30DS tonight and next month I can move on to Ripped in 30. :tongue:
