    Day 10, Level 1 done, with a side of Butt Bible Lower, Level 1 for good measure. Woot! Looking forward to the planks in Level 2. Burn it, Shredders!

    Those of you who are expressing concern about not losing weight yet - this is my second consecutive round of 30DS, and I found that the weight loss happened more toward the end, and there was a more significant change in inches than in pounds lost, if that makes sense. I did it about half Natalie, half Anita the first time and lost about 6 pounds and 6 1/2 inches (measuring waist, thighs, hips and arms). This time I am doing it entirely Natalie style (plus adding in extra workouts from time to time) so I am hopeful that there will be an even greater change when the 30 days is over. In October, I plan to do Butt Bible according to the BB workout plan, using elliptical for my cardio.

    Can I still join your group. I just gor the 30 day shred and gave it a try on thursday (it kicked my butt and I am still sore) but it would be nice to have to report on it and I feel that would make me accountable for the exercise!!!! I will start tonight!

    Level 1 done! Woohoo!!! Tomorrow planks, planks, and more planks....woohoo.... :)

    For those of you that have asked about making workouts up... I do it all the time. I do them back to back and they sure are a kick butt workout. I would prefer not to skip days, but life sometimes just gets in the way. I do worry a bit about my body getting used to those 40 min workouts and then the 20 min ones not kicking my butt as much, but I figure any working out is good.

    Have a great weekend all!

    I forgot to post this morning that level 1 is done! I was so bored about mid-way through (second round without a break between) I'm looking forward to level 2, which is my favorite!!!

    ROCK ON!!! :tongue:

    I started 30DS on September 1st - haven't missed a day yet!

    First day of Level 2 today - I consider myself a fairly fit person but oh my gosh, I thought I was dying! Had to switch down from 2kg weights to 1.5kg weight!

    haha I know right! Level 2 kicks my butt! I feel like it is SO much harder than level 1, but I am up for the challenge!

    I LOVE LEVEL 2!!! I did the first time around in August, LOVE it even more this time around. Increased weights on everything but the last set of Anterior raises.

    ROCK ON!!! :tongue:

    Day 11, Level 2- OMG!! I never thought so much sweat was possible...this is definitely a workout, going to take some getting used to, but glad its behind me! The planks with all the jumping and twisting and jacks....too much, Jillian's out for blood. :cry: :laugh: see you all tomorrow.

    Finished up day 10 today. Start level 2 tomorrow.

    I noticed that after day 6 it felt like my arms are getting weaker the more I do. I also noticed some soreness that I haven't had during a workout since the first week of august. Has anyone else had this problem?

    I used to all the planks etc because I completed 6 Week 6 Pack earlier this year (there are very few planks in this compared to that haha)! I can handle the cardio and ab work. But the strength is killing me!!! Especially when I'm worn down from Abs/Cardio! :sad: Life's not fair!!!

    I've missed like 4 days of doing the 30ds due to lack of sleep/insomnia and not having the energy to do much of anything...should I start the 30ds all over again? Or just finish the last day of level 1 like i was supposed to and move on?

    I say finish and move on...this is my 4th attempt at 30DS because everytime I miss days I would try to start over and it never works out.... I've missed a couple day as well and I will continue at Day 7 today...

    My butt is sore today....which is very rare for me, not sure if those chair squats are causing it or what? I am not really a big fan of level 2, mainly because I feel like she should have eased into the planks rather than just tossing us into it. I guess she is there to kick our *kitten* and she is succeeding! :) Happy Monday everyone!

    Wow, so the 6 week ab is that another one of Jillian's DvD's? That sounds like something I'd have to really work up too:laugh: But hey if it gets results like the one in your profile pic (which is fabulous-and I'm just letting you know, once I reach those type of results I'm soooo copying you!) :laugh: :laugh: That is awesome definition/inspiration.

    Anyhow, Day 12, Level 2 done. I've noticed that in my elder years, my balance is lacking - hard to keep balance during those military presses, and I find myself taking more than a couple of those 5 second breaks Jillian allows. But today seemed to go by much quicker than yesterday...see you shredders tomorrow!

    Love, Love, Love, Love, Level 2!!! (yes, I AM mental, and yes, I did love it last month, too!) I remembered to wear shoes today. So much better when my feet are NOT sliding ALL over the carpet! Come on, we're almost half way through!

    ROCK ON!! :tongue:

    I LOVE level 2 also :-) I am using 5 pound weights I'll be on Day 4 today! I only did level 1 on the first day but it was to easy so I'm sticking with Level 2 until I can do all without modification! I feaking LOVE it! It makes me feel soooooo good afterwords! My little 17 month old loves to laugh at me while I do the workouts haha

    D2L2 today and I was yawning for the first 5 minutes trying to kick myself to get going! I guess doing the workout at 5:30 a.m. will do that to me on occasion. Glad I stuck with it. I forgot how much harder this level is for me than L1. Happy shredding!

    missed 2 days of level one due to sickness (nausea and throwing up).. now i am on LV2D13 (day 3 on level 2)

    lost a total of 7 pounds already with drinking nothing but water ! this is amazing :)<3
    cant wait to measure everything! but a portion of the weight loss probably also had to do with the stomach bug i had..
