    I feel you. I was doing good for about a week, but I haven't done it since last thursday! Not acceptable. I am starting tonight as well.

    I just did my first day of this, could I join too? I think I love Jillian, but I also kind of hate her too. :laugh: I do have a ? though, what type of exercise are you all using to log it in?
  • I just did day 2 L1 this morning! woo hoo. My shoulders are already killing me! I'm logging it as Circuit Training. Also, I'm probably going to take 1 day off a week, probably Sunday.
  • I'm logging it as 20 minutes of circuit training as well. I completed Day 2 (level one) last night. I have never sweated that much after a 20 minute workout LOL. I really pushed myself. I want noticeable results :D

    I did Day 2 of Level 1 last night and I am SORE!!! Seriously, it hurts to squat down to use the bathroom lol. This is after not having done much more for exercise other than taking a short walk and/or taking the stairs at work (I work on the 10th floor so it's a bit hard) for the last several months. I just had my baby girl in May so my activity level greatly decreased with having her to keep me busy.

    I am determined to see results this time. I did the 30 day shred last June/July (2010) to get ready for my August wedding and although I never made it past Level 2, I saw serious results. I didn't take pictures then unfortunately, but I know it worked. My arms were toned, my stomach was flat(ish) and my butt looked great. :D

    I took pictures on Sunday night so I plan to share my stats and before & after pics when the 30 days is up.

    Good luck to everyone and feel free to add me on here!

  • Hey Everyone!

    I would like to join the group also. I plan on starting Oct 1st. I bought the 30 day shred dvd & work out pack and also the six week six pack dvd. I figured I can do them one after the other and so on. I hit a plateau so I need something to change up my routine. Does anyone have any suggestions for me before I start. Thanks

    I started last night L1. I got it in the mail yesterday and started it last night before Biggest Loser came on. Why does it seem like that is the longest 23 minutes ever, omg. My butt is sore too. I am hoping to get through 30 days. I have never done 30 days of any one dvd daily, outside of other workouts at the gym, etc. This is going to be interesting....I took a before picture...but forgot to do measurements, but I think my prior measurements from a couple weeks ago still stand, so I will just use those! Day 2 starts tonight,,,ugh debating on whether or not I am going to take a Zumba class too, not sure yet, especially since its Day two of TOM :-/

    I can't find my darn measuring tape, so my before/after measurements may be a bit off whenever I find it or get a new one.

    But L1D2 was completed earlier today. I am PUMPED. Today, despite the soreness, I felt like a beast powering through the work out. Let's all kick butt ladies :bigsmile:

    Awesome, keep powering through, we are all going to feel great by the end of it! I am going to post my measurements tomorrow night as I have a late meeting tonight. good luck girls!
  • I did Day 2 on Level 1, leg muscles were sore and arms just a lil bit. I admit that i did call her a few choice names at the end but glad that i stuck with it.....looking forward to how defined and pleased i will be in 30....baught a calendar yesterday so i mark off the days as i do them, so i can keep myself on track. Good luck to all and i am anxious to hear how everyone is doing. I also incorporate an 80 min dance workout 2-3 times a week, and i walk 1.5 miles 5 days a week and i am hoping and praying for sum good results!!

    Day 2 Level 1 for me too...just finished about 30 minutes ago...and boy do my calves, thighs, butt and shoulders hurt. I did feel some energy kick in today more so than yesterday...Wow you guys...we really have to work through this soreness... That calendar idea is a good one. I have a calendar in my bathroom I will mark 2 days off. I also go to the gym 3 days a week and walk 1.5 mile straight up hill Sunday morning with one of my Saturday gym partners...looking forward to the results. I heard you should notice after just one week...??

    I finished level 1 yesterday and really pushed myself to go all out. I was sweating like crazy. I've been under my calories all week and I can already see my body transforming. Sunday will be the halfway mark and I will take pics and measurements. Q

    I did L1-D2 today and I'm sore! But I was actually able to do all of the push-ups today. I could only do half yesterday. Yay! I've been under in calories too.

    Did L1-D4 tonight. I was exhausted and contemplating taking a day off but I sucked it up and did it. I'm glad I did. I feel better for getting it done and I could do more than I could the last 3 days, like the pushups. :)

    I just finished day 3 of 30DS I didn't think I was gonna make it with all my soreness...I took a Epson salt bath last night, but man oh man.... my endurance is increasing, but wow...when does the soreness fade away...I would love a little relief before I go to L2 next week :-/ I haven't done any other exercise yet either. Not looking forward to day 4, my calves are so sore and my butt muscles...they are SCREAMING relief! I guess that means its working.

    Today was Level 2, Day 8.

    I must admit, I really look forward to finishing this program.

    The workout feels great, but she annoys the mud out of me. lol... I mute her and play my own music instead.

    On the upside, I have currently lost a total of 9.75 inches since beginning. (also doing Couch to 5K)

    Don't get discourage when you switch to Level 2. It's hard but you can do it.

    Keep up the good work!

    How are we all doing ladies???

    I am going to do day 3 of Level 1 tonight- I had a spin class this morning. I work out pretty regularly (and ocassionally do this dvd randomly) so I am not overly sore or notice a difference but happy about sticking to it finally :) Hope you are all working through the aches and pains to get it done!xo

    Tonight was day 4 for me on L1...I am really sore, but pressing on. I usually take a spin class on Saturday mornings as well as Zumba, but I have to take my daughter to take SATs. So will miss tomorrow :-( but I think I will run the treadmill on Sunday and of course keep on shredding...I havent made the best food choices this week...shoot I never make good food choices when TOM is in town, ugh. I am just hoping Jillian broke through those few poor choices and I lost some inches and even a pound or two. I definitely notice a difference in my endurance from day 1 to day 4, by day 7 I should be a pro and ready to move on to L2 the next day. LETS GO LADIES!
