    I started today too. My legs feel like jello LOL but I sneezed and actually felt it in my abs!
    I am so amazed that I got up first thing this am and DID IT! WE DID IT! lol I don't even recognize myself. And in 30 days, nobody else will either

    does anyone know what size weights they are using in the videos?
    I have 5lb dumbbells at here, but they were waaayyyy to heavy for some of the moves.

    I think they use 3 pound weights. That's what I started with.

    If this works and doesn't kill me, I'm going to do it November, February, April & June - months that have 30 days (cept feb, almost but it's winter & boring) and also before/around the holidays (summer)

    I started with 3lb weights and moved up to 5lbs on my 2nd round :)

    It's 30 Day Shred - a 20 minute workout dvd from Jillian Michaels. There are 3 levels, too, so you can increase your intensity over time.

    I forgot to wear my HRM (lol) so I logged it as general circuit training. I'll see what the HRM says tomorrow. I'm logging it, just to be accountable; not eating the cals back (maybe 100 or so, depends how weight loss goes)

    are they saying logging it as circuit training is not the proper way of logging it???

    I have the polar ft4 which was recommended to me and it has a chest strap which I was told gives you a more accurate calorie burn I love it :)
