in Introduce Yourself
Hello!

After breaking my ankle this winter and gaining 12 pounds, I need to get back in my cute teaching clothes next month. So, I've decided to do Jillian Michaels' Ripped in 30 DVD 6 days a week (one day off each week to rest) for the next month.

I also picked up her book Making the Cut to use as motivation and a dietary guide. I'm a vegetarian, so I'll be modifying the recipes a bit, possibly stretching my usual diet to include fish for the next month.

I'm hoping other folks will jump on this thread and participate and/or contribute their own experiences with Ripped in 30.

Here goes nothin'...

    I'm on day 5 of 30DS at the moment :) Once I've finished the shred, I'm going to go onto Ripped in 30 - seen some good reviews and apparently it's a step up from 30DS, which is perfect!

    Yay! So glad to have folks to suffer with me!

    I did 30DS last summer to get ready for my wedding, and I had great success with it.

    Looking forward to trying Ripped in 30. I've heard it's even more intense!

    Just finished day one of level 1 on Ripped in 30. Many of the moves were familiar, coming from other Jillian DVDs. Several of the moves were from levels 2 and 3 of the 30 day shred. I would definitely say it was tougher than level 1 of 30DS. More stretching at the end, which was nice.

    Feels good. I'll keep you posted on how this goes.

    I'm in! I just finished day 1/level 1 of Ripped in 30 today and I agree that it's tougher than level 1 of 30DS. I have a HRM and I burned about 70 more calories than I normally did on level 2 of 30DS!! (I never really got into level 3 b/c it was seemed to tear up my knees too much). Is anyone going to do the free JM diet plan that goes with it?

    Yeah! I'd love to join you! I started Ripped in 30 tonight. I thought it was a similar intensity to 30DS-Level 2. I'm nervous about what week 4 will bring.

    For the other posters, I finished 30DS on Friday. I had two vacations in that time in which I tried to get in some running. I started 30 DS on May 31. Sometimes I did two levels each day--but that didn't happen very often. Here are my results: 12 lbs. lost. Chest: 1.5 in. lost Waist: 1 in. lost Hips: 3 in. lost Knees: 1 in. lost each Calves: .75. in lost each Ankles: .5 in lost each Arms: 1.25 in lost each Forearms: 1.5 in lost each Wrist: .5 in lost

    Ummm, I ALSO broke my ankle this winter and gained weight!!!!!! AND I am going back to work as a teacher as well! (Was on Maternity leave) I am going to get hubby to pick up Ripped in 30... I just finished 30DS and lost 10 inches and want to kick it up a notch.
    Wow, what a coincidence! I hope to keep seeing great results.

    I'm on week one day 3. I can use some "buddies" for motivation. I did go through the DVD back in April but really slacked off with my exercise and food choices. I'm just getting back into exercising and eating healthy. Hopefully this time I will see it to the end.
