I finished 30 DS a few days ago and lost a total of 7 inches overall! I did the 30 days straight except the last 3 days due to an injury! I must say I loved the dvd and I especially loved Level 3! She really kicks your booty at every workout!

I am going to look for 30 day shred this weekend to start on monday...any suggestion on weight size? and if its better to do morning or night? really need to get this going been at the same weight for 3 weeks any advice will help!

Don't count on huge weight loss, but take photos and measurements before you start as this seems to be where the big changes are made! I use 2kg weights (4.5lbs) which are a bit heavy for some things and a bit light for others - however I have managed and I can't afford to buy different ones so I've made do. I did a couple of modifications such as only doing one arm at a time in the side lunges and arm raises.
I find that doing it first thing in the morning is good as then you don't have to spend the rest of the day trying to talk yourself into doing it!

Day 12, Level 1 - Natalie’s intensity (shift from level 2 today to protect the knee).

Day 13, level 1. I moved to level 2 too quickly; since shifting back to level 1 a few days ago, the focus is on proper movement and the two muscle groups targeted. I am still challenged, keeping the intensity with Natalie for cardio, most strength movements and abs, and hanging with Anita for squats (always protecting the knee for running). I will not move to the next level until the current level is no longer a challenge.

I just finished day 2 of level 3. I've noticed it's taking more effort to get my heart rate up. I really pushed today and got it up to 174 which I'm pretty excited about! I did about 20 days of level 1 and moved on to level 2 when I got bored. I went to level 3 after 10 days of level 2. I think level 3 is my favorite. It's challenging but in a motivating way.

I did 7 days of level one then switched to level two i just wasnt sweating on level one any more but i will be on level two for a while because it kills me haha. since monday i have lost 6 pounds, an inch off my neck, and an inch off my waist couldnt be happier!!

I did the same like you/ Switching to level 2 early because I wasnt sweating enough. Now I am still struggling a little on the last circuit when I have to raise my left leg. I wont move up until I can do this thing unstop.

Day idk level 2! Finished! Today! Yay! Was planning on doing 6w6p but think ill do that tomorrow!

I started 30 Day Shred back up and I'm on Day 9 Level 1. So far I've lost 3 lbs and 3 inches from the bra line down, and added a quarter inch to each bicep. Can't wait till the end of the month!

So far today is my first rest day. I did 10 days on level 1 and my first day on level 2 was yesterday. I'm not overly sore, I just felt it was time to give my body a rest. Someone else told me on another message board that Jillian herself recommended rest days on a podcast. I'm just afraid that if I get out of my workout routine that I won't stick to it.

Ok I am 24 days into 30DS and but am really impressed with my side and back progress, so thought I would upload my pics (never shown anybody my before pics before EEEEKKK) apologies for the horrendous undies!!! My First goal gift to myself is to buy new 1's lol

Today was my first day on 30DS and I can already tell I'm going to be feeling this tomorrow. My legs and arms feel like painful jello; Jillian really kicked my butt. I was panting and downing water like a fish, and have to admit there were some parts I just couldn't do today, but I pushed through and finished the workout.

I did 30 day shred and lost a few inches. Ripped in 30 has been GREAT to me!! So far I've lost 4 inches and about 4 pounds. Not much because I am simply doing it to tone, but my body is changing and I love it!

Pictures were taken right after working out. I started to run, ran for about 4 days total and I hurt my ankle. Strictly eating great and doing Jillian once a day!

Today was week 4 day 3 of Ripped in 30... What to do next??

Oh my goodness! you look incredible! I hope I look like this in 29 days!
Can I ask though, what kind of stuff did you eat? We seem to have similar physiques and I dont want to lose weight - I've reached my goal weight, I just want to lose fat and tone muscle now! Can you give me any tips as to good foods to eat?
thanks! x
