    I did L3D3 today and I found L2 harder. L3 is hard, but the jump from 2 to 3 wasn't as big as from 1 to 2 I think.
    Good luck with L3. We're almost there!

    Did L3D4 today, after not doing DS on Fri or Sun, I did do other exercise. But I'm starting to get bored, even though it is exhausting and i can feel my muscles every day, I'd like to start something new.

    Day 24 in the books!! Almost there... I can taste it...LOL... L3D3. I really like level 3 and can really tell it is doing its job.. I bought Ripped in 30 this weekend and plan to move right onto it!! I will do a final inches/pounds post at the end, but that really doesn't even matter.. I can REALLY tell a difference in my core strength... Lovin It!!

    I still have 2 more days of Level 2. (Yuck!)

    I was supposed to do D9L2 today, but apparently I set my alarm for the wrong time and got up too late. So...I start back up again tomorrow.

    Sounds like level 3 is better than level 2...yay! I don't like level 2.

    I didn't like level 2 either, but I stayed on it for extra days because I thought level 3 would be worse.. Level 3 is hard...Probably harder... Don't know why I like it better, but I do... I'm just weird that way!!

    I loved level 2, it was by far my fav!! I started level 3 today, and really not a fan of all the jumping, but overall it was a great workout! :glasses:

    I started on Level 3 today. Did L2D9 yesterday, but i needed something new even though I am not mastering everything in Level 2 and have to do some of the low impact moves.
    Level 3 is hard but the jump is not as big as the one between 1 and 2 I have to say.

    What is everyone planning on doing after the 30 days? I am doing c25k too (on week 1 still) but i need those Jillian calories each day, otherwise i'd be starving!

    I think I've decided to start ripped in 30 after 30DS.

    Although, with it getting cooler outside, I may try running in the morning also. I've got a 5K in October that I registered for, so I need to train for that.

    I finished L2D9 just now, so I will have one more day of level 2.

    Just finished day 26, L3D5!!! Only 4 days to go.. This body will definitely be taking a rest day at that point... I really love this workout though. I can feel the difference... When I walk I can feel muscle, not fat.. Does that make sense to anyone???

    So I started level 3 today. Compared to level 2, level 3 is a breeze. I had to modify some of the moves because my knees couldn't take it, but I'm hoping that i will get stronger and be able to do them full force!

    I don't do the rock stars because of the impact on my knees. I do jump rope instead. My knee joints are tired from running and 30DS. I don't want to risk injury with those rock stars...

    Only 2 days left... YAY!!! Honestly, my body is screaming!! It's tired.. SO ready for a rest day.. I completed the C25K today!! I ended it with a 3.14 mile RUN!!! I was very excited, but I gave that all I had and then the workout after just about did me in... When I move on to Ripped I will def take a rest day each week.. This body needs it!!

    I had to stop with just 5 days to go. also not counting as I am on holidays. But i was completely set on doing 30ds a few times this week, despite being away, but now my foot hurts again :(

    How's everyone doing?

    I'm on L3D6. Only 4 more days to go. I usually take Sunday as a rest day, but I'm thinking of doing it on Sunday just so that can be my last day.
