    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!

    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!!!

    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..

    D7L1 done! Will probably miss tomorrow as I'm going to a friend's who just broke up with her boyfriend.

    ETA: Couldn't resist earlier and took my measurements again! My waist went from 33" to 32" in only 7 days!

    Thank you! I'm just going to continue on as if I hadn't stopped at all. Today was Day 10 of Level 1 for me so on to Level 2 tomorrow!!!!
    I don't have any weights, nor do I have the money to buy any right now (on a very very tight, fixed income). I have been using cans :laugh:
    My question is, does anyone have any ideas of what I can use around my house as heavier weights??? Or does anyone else have this problem and using household objects as your weights? :laugh:

    L1D10 & L2D1 today..... L2D2 & L2D3 tomorrow... Missed two days, because my back was hurting, so I need to make them up now. =)
    I'm also doing Jillian's 6 Week Six-Pack 5 days a week also, so I'm really excited to see my results at the end! =)

    Did NOT want to get my lazy butt out of bed this morning, sleep wasn't the greatest last night, but I always remember that it's 20 minutes, and I can do ANYTHING for 20 minutes!

    ROCK ON!!! :tongue:

    I've actually been using can for awhile this is the first time I am using weights....you can also try using 2 water bottle they are heavier than cans

    Ok....the weekend was less than fabulous but it was my sons 11th birthday along with sports galore....but enough of the excuses....I just didn't work out. So, I have completed Level 1 day 2 & day 3. Got up at 5:30 this morning to do the 30 DS. I am NOT a morning person so that is a huge feat! Yesterday was also a good day in the food and exercise area so I am hoping to repeat that today! I hope everyone has a good day!

    Morning Shredders! Just checking in...Day 13, Level 2 (Day 3 of Level 2)...is done and over with :bigsmile: ...I am still attempting to do a hybrid between Anita and Natalie, with a majority Anita. I'm actually quite proud of myself, like many of you, I've been exhausted in the morning, don't feel like it, and after I do it, feel much better. I think the part I dislike the most right now in level 2, is the plank jacks, because at that point i'm so beat, i have to catch my breath. But to end on a good note, I did take some mini measurements and I did lose 1.5 inches in my waist and lower abs (each) which are Huge problem areas for me...and best of all Im just shy of the 1/2 way mark!

    Just finished L2D2. Missed Sunday this week so if I'm up to it, I might do another 20 minutes tonight to put myself back on track. I'm home from work with a sick kiddo today so I'm happy to get my workout done this morning and not have to do it at 5:00 after a long day at the office. Hope everyone is doing well. Almost half way!!!

    L2D5 today and I feel like I've arrived! My left side seems a little stronger than my right but nothing I can't handle. Felt so good that I followed it with L1! I feel strong and Jillian you're going to have to wait till L3 to kick my butt again!

    Hope everyone is doing well - we can do this!!
