Hi all

I am someone who needs support to carry on and really want to complete the 30 DS.....but I can't do it alone!

Planning on starting Saturday which will mean my last workout would be on Christmas Day. I was wondering if anyone was up for joining me in the challenge?

It will be 10 days each level with a weekly weigh in on Saturdays. We can post our starting weight and key measurements and support each other through it

Level 1: 26th November - 5th December
Level 2: 6th December - 15th December
Level 3: 16th December - 25th December

Let me know :-)

    I too need something/someone to force me to do it! Count me IN!

    I'm already on my last day of Level 1, but I will do some extra days of Level 3 right before Christmas because I'll know I'll need it then! :)

    Woo hoo :)

    Great! I'll be starting with 2.5lbs weights as my arm muscles are quite weak. Maybe move up when (or if) it gets too easy

    The more the merrier!

    I currently do 3 days biking each week, 3 days walking but have been slack about upper body work. I would love to join. My husband and I are leaving xmas day for a 11 day vaca in the sun and I would like my arms to look good in a tank top.
    I will start tomorrow on the 25th.
    :happy:

    fyi
    I modify high impact moves because of a bad knee
    I have done the first several days before, but never finished and I want to get it all done this time.
    I use a variety of weights for different exercises 2.5, 5, 8 and 10 pound weights.

    I think we are getting a good group together!

    If everyone posts or messages me their weight (and measurments if wanted) tomorrow, I can start a nice chart to keep tabs on our progress as a group

    I think the feeling of completing the last one on Christmas morning with be a massive sense of accomplishment :smile:

    Woooooh just what I needed! I received the DVD yesterday! I had a quick look at the workouts and was like "oh level one seems really easy i hope I didn't waste my money"....yes ehm.... it is NOT easy! I just did my first workout of Level 1 this morning and sweat was running down my face! I used 2.5 weights but had to switch to 1.25 occasionally when I noticed that I lost my form.....

    I am so curious of how much I will change in 30 days! Bring it on ladies! We can do it! x

    What a fabulous wedding dress!

    I just did it just want to say you might find it a bit boring to do one level 10 days in a row, its ok to mix it up a bit - like do l1 on alternate days and L2 on alternate days. Sometimes I did two levels in one day, one in the morning and another in the evening.
    You will get great results and its such a short time commitment there are no excuses!!!!

    Thank you :)

    I'm thinking of doing L1 every day for 10 days - but on a couple of days, mixing it with some Zumba or other cardio/strengthening

    Whatever works for you is good

    What do you use to add this to your exercise? I looded for it on the list. How do you determine how many calories burned. I would love to this this, but I can not start till Dec 3.

    I have the DVD, is it an everyday work out or every other? Add me I would love to support you and be supported.

    I used to put it under circuit training because that is basically how Jillian does it.

    I have been working on losing weight since OCt 10. My first goal #1 has been met. I have lost 20 lbs as of last Saturday. I would like to have a group of people to continue helping me met my overall goal of 100 lbs. by July 2012. I have been using both belly fat diet and The Diabetes Dtour diet. My motivation is to control my blood sugar with exerise, diet, and weight loss. Because I am a type 2 diabetes.

    I would love to join if you have room for 1 more! I did the 30DS once before and only completed it because of a group similar to this.

    SW = 168
