    I haven't lost anything (wtf) but I feel like the angle of my body right above hips changed due to the ab workouts if that makes sense. I'm hoping that after the next two weeks, I will see a good change. I did take before photos (gag), but I don't know if I'll be posting them. We'll see lol.

    I did not take before photos and wish I had. I am not seeing anything but the scale go up and maybe some muscle in my arms.
    I am also doing some other things a few times a week. Treadmill or elliptical.

    Hey guys, today is my alternate day of cardio...I think I might add another day of cardio to my routine aswell. At the moment I'm not seeing any visual progress (no inches lost, only 1 pound lost) but my abs and obliques have definitely got stronger as I can feel them more easily...it's just a bummer that I have a small bit of fat on my stomach left and it wont budge! :explode:

    i just finished two rounds of the 30 day shred last week, and had great results. i started ripped in 30 this week, and can't wait to see how it works.

    First day of RI30 for me today also! Didn't perfect anything, but I made it through the entire routine. I'm hoping I will be able to make it through every day and not quit. That has been my habit! But I actually enjoy the difficulty of this routine so I'm gonna push through it.

    I'm a little further along in the program, just started week 3, I didn't find week 1 or 2 awful, but definately a good workout. Week three is a bit more challenging IMO however :)

    Did week 2 day 1 (redo from last week's flop) this morning. No motivation today, but at least I did it. Hoping to do some sort of cardio tonight or maybe 6 week 6 pack. Just feeling really out of sorts lately and trying to snap back with exercise. ;) (hey, at least not ice cream right?)

    I am feeling really out of sorts to. I was almost to depressed to do Ripped today. I pushed though since not doing it would have made me feel worse. I hope I can get out of this funk and back to feeling good soon.

    I am the last day of week one and somehow I cannot motivate myself to do it today. Hopefully I will pull off before 9. This is my first Jillian Michaels workout. Do you have to follow her diet to see results or can you just eat better. Also are you guys only doing RI30 or RI30 along with other exercise routines and programs?

    I am not following her diet, but am tracking my food and trying to stay in my calorie goal.
    I do other exercises, but it depends on how you feel.

    Hi, Ripped ladies! I'm on Week 3 (tomorrow's day 3), and I've had good results inch-wise, and small movement on the scale. I'm liking the challenge of Week 3 (Week 2 was kind of easy), and am psyched to get through the program--am going to start lifting at the gym after that. I've been doing RI30 about 5 times a week, No More Trouble Zones once or twice a week, and have done Body Pump classes at the gym 3 times. Haven't had much time for cardio, but sometimes add a little boxing after RI30, because it doesn't burn many calories! Nice to "meet" all of you!

    How long were you doing the program before you noticed the inches go away. How is your diet?

    I'm starting week 3 tomorrow. I'm not doing any other workouts, it's hard enough for me to find the 30min to do RI30 5x/week!

    I just started today. I was sore from doing Bob Harper's DVD yesterday but I bought Jillian's today and fought through it. I'm looking forward to doing it. I'm going to try and do all 30 days without a break. I'm used to doing the treadmill 6 days a week so hopefully I can do it. However, I haven't been this sore!

    I need to get back on track. I've been so exhausted that I haven't worked out since Sunday. I WILL get back on track tomorrow.
