I started the 30 Day Shred on February 13th. Because of a scheduled vacation, I did not have enough time to do the full 30 days. Instead, it ended up being about 27 days (but I figure that's close enough). I did each level for 9 days and I took Sundays off. So I think I only ended up doing each level 8 days.

I am fairly happy with the results. I can see more muscle definition and I feel much stronger. I wish I could see more results in my legs, but apparently I lose weight on my top half first. Hopefully my bottom half will start changing also.

Also, I continued what exercise I was doing before, but just added 30 DS to what I was already doing. I do 45-60 minutes of cardio (walking uphill and jogging) in the morning and 30DS in the afternoon every day of the week, except Sundays. I eat around 1200 calories per day, and as of right now, I am not eating back any exercise calories.

I'll be in Hawaii for the next week, but when I get back I'll be starting Ripped in 30. While I feel "more" beach ready than I was, still not looking good enough to wear this out in public. Hopefully by summer I'll have more of a bikini body. Well, here's what you've been waiting for. The results:

Before: After: Difference:
Bust: 39 Bust: 38.5 -0.5
Waist: 33 Waist: 31.5 -1.5
Belly Button: 39 Belly Button: 37.5 -1.5
Hips: 42.5 Hips: 40.5 -2.0
R arm: 12.5 R arm: 12 -0.5
L arm: 12.75 L arm: 12.5 -0.25
R leg: 22.75 R leg: 22 -0.75
L Leg: 23 L leg: 22.5 -0.5

Weight: 187 Weight: 176.4

Total inches lost: -7.5 inches
Total weight lost: -10.6 lbs

Also, I am 5ft 6 in and my ultimate goal weight is between 148-154.

    Those are outstanding results! I did 30 DS on and off while I was doing my second Round of P90X. What I thought was pretty cool was our measurements are very close and we are looking at hitting the same goal! So, seeing someone else that is right where I am is pretty encouraging! Keep up the good work!

    Fantastic! I'm starting my shred today!

    How do I found out about that?

    The name of the DVD is 30 Day Shred by Jillian Michaels. It's less than $10 at Walmart and Amazon.

    OP- You look fantastic. That is a big difference for 30 days. Looking good momma!

    Great job! Your face has slimmed down, and you look slimmer and smoother basically everywhere. 30DS really helped prepare me for R30; it's got some crazy moves that really work! Have fun on vacation. :)
