    I just started on Sunday. I'm using 5 lb weights and its kicking my butt! I thought I was in better shape than this haha. I took my before pictures, hoping for some good results. Are you ladies doing before and after photos too?

    Good luck ladies!

    I'll join in, too. My husband & I haven't stuck with it for more than a few days, so I think this every other day thing might really help. Can't wait to get started tonight!

    I forgot that I had loaned my 30DS dvd to my niece, so I did Ripped in 30 instead. It is basically the same, though. My eight year old daughter did it with me, and i followed it with a 1.5 mile run. I'm sure I will feel it tomorrow!!

    Are we going to be posting our weights and measurrements??

    I am in. I started this tonight. I was going to start my own thread (for tracking) but then I saw this one (might still start my own for tracking anyway).

    Will try to get measurements and photos for before and after.

    Starting out I am a 5ft 11in male. Weighed in today at 231. (Down 8lbs this year and down 39lbs since January 1st, 2011)

    Not sure if I will make this an AM workout and do elliptical in the evening or vice versa.

    My biggest question is the calorie burn to track this. Anyone able to guesstimate? (for the purposes of eating back calories to not starve the body....and slow the metabolism)

    I did L1 last night with my HRM on and burned 250, but this is my second time around with the shred and I'm fitter now than I was the first time. Back then I was burning around 280-290 each time.

    Day 2 done...wasn't sure if I would make it through. I woke up this morning with aches all over from yesterday but I went ahead and did it and it was fine...its making the decision to do it thats the hard part, once you start its fine.

    I will tell you the first 3 days were hell, pain, aches, yesterday was the worse. GOOD NEWS: I woke up this morning and for the first day was not in pain. So keep pushing through you can do it!! I promise it will get better

    This AM was D2L1 - I think I will try to do these workouts before work (at 6-:630AM) Then I can do my elliptical workouts in the evening.

    Best part of the first workout was my 5yr old "joining" me in doing them. She loved doing these with daddy.....she even wanted to use the 1lb weights. She lasted about 10 minutes.

    I am realizing something I already know...my legs are not as flexible as they probably could be. I expect this will change over time.

    I would like to join in. I have a hard time staying motivated to continue but Im hoping you all will keep me motivated to continue. I've had the dvd for while now and have not done more than a week. Just finished doing Day 1 level 1 and hoping to finish to day 30.
