    Hey everyone!! I just started week 2 of ripped in 30 so I would love to participate!!

    I do not have measurements, but my start weight was 169 and now I am down to 167 or 168 (depends on the time of day of weighing).
    My goal weight overall is 150ish and my mini goal for 4 weeks is 160. Hopefully Jillian will help me get there!!

    Even after just a week I notice my clothes fitting more loosely!

    Let's do this!!! =)

    Hi! i just started ripped in 30 today-- is it ok to join a day late? :) I just finished 30 day shred and had amazing results-- i'm looking forward to the same with Ripped in 30!! With 30DS i did 10 days of each level with no break...this video recommends 5-6 days at each level with atleast a 1 days break so i was gonna do 6 days break, level 2: 6 days, break, level 3...etc... is that how anyone else is doing it?

    To answer your question - that is what I plan on doing. Six days and break on the seventh!

    Day 3 was pretty good! I will definately be ready to move to level 2 next week!

    I am definately glad I did 30DS before RI30D.

    So.......how is day 3 going for those that started a few days ago?

    i am already tired of those side lunges with lateral raises-- those r so hard for me for some reason! lol buttt...i can say that i'm enjoying doing 3 strength moves instead of 2!! :D i did "before" pics this morning (i know its day 3 but better late than never) and realized just how far i have to go!

    I am right there with ya Jennor8or! Those side lunges with the laterals are the hardest part to me! Don't know why....
    I am loving it! Day 3 yesterday was good. I already feel like I am getting "tighter". Played golf today..and it wasn't pretty. Felt strong though over the ball...so I am hoping by improving my overall fitness, so will my golf scores!

    I would agree with side lunge comments. For whatever reason, that step to side, back to center, then to the other side seems to throw me off. I actually went down to the 3 pound weight for that specific exercise because I seem to get all out of wack when using the 5 pound. I'm pretty much focusing on the form.

    Day 4 was pretty much easy (except as noted above). Two more days, then a break!

    Today is D4L2 for me..knees are aching a little but other than that im fine! the move that kills me is the side lunge with a leg raise..kills my *kitten* and thighs! you do a side lunge w/out weights and touch the ground then lift the straight leg and oh man killer workout :grumble:

    I am a little disappointed.....
    I took yesterday off....just couldn't do it. Today it will be Day 6 Level 1 done....and I am going to start the C25k program. I probably shouldn't have, but I jumped on the scale again today and I was up a 1lb and 1/2! I kept thinking about Jillian saying "you can eat your way through any exercise", but I really haven't gone overboard. I have a glass of wine every night...with dinner or right before bed...but that's even legal on Med. Diet...so I am disappointed. Gonna stick with it though. Feel tighter...but don't really feel as though my clothes fit any better.
    Problem area is really the tummy. I just cant seem to get it any tighter. I KNOW you can't spot reduce. And I think there was thread about that earlier on the forum. Still, it's the one area I would like to grab and throw to the side!

    NOT GIVING UP! I am gonna do this for the 30 days....I have to be in it for the long haul....
