Most of us are either on days four, five, or six. For those people, have you noticed any changes yet? I ask because I finished day 4 of level 1 today and while playing around with the tape measure, I noticed a half an inch difference on my upper arms, waist, and hips. There was also a one inch difference in my thighs! I am excited, but I am wondering if this is possible. I mean, can you really lose inches this quickly? If so, I cannot wait to see what I look like at the end of this thing! Lol.

    Wow that's awesome. I just finished day 4 and haven't noticed any changes yet except I'm less sore today. I didn't measure myself but will tonight and check again next week. I did take before pics though.

    I was feeling a huge difference too, so did my measurements tonight, and am apparently 2 inches smaller on my waist and 1.5 on my hips already... SUCH a motivation... especially since the scale has not budged at all and I'm trying not to get discouraged! My husband mentioned my stomach looked smaller which is why I checked with the measuring tape :) I'm excited to see the end result too, just HOPING there is some kind of movement on the scale soon!

    I haven't been measuring or weighing myself but I can tell my stomach and arms are tighter. And my legs look thinner but that might be from the running I have been doing too :)

    I haven't measured yet. I think I am going to give it a few more days before I do so. Probably will do so when I move on to level 2. Still not sure if I am going to fit it in over the weekend. Kids activities consume most of my weekends! So glad for this group to keep me motivated.

    One non-visible change I've noticed -- I am not waking with aches & soreness and also, I find that instead of dreading working out, I actually am thinking about other activities to do in addition to the workout... It's nice. And I guess proof that an object in motion wants to stay in motion.

    Me too. I think about what other exercise I can do in conjunction with 30DS. Jillian is so motivating

    So excited to see some changes in my body around my mid section, usually that is the first place I gain the weight but it is also the first place it comes off. I was just looking at my before pics and my stomach is very different already. I am hoping the rest of me shrinks as fast.. We'll see what week 2 brings.

    Wow! Mountaingirl. That is great. I wish I could figure out if I did. I have been wearing stretchy pants since I had my hysterectomy since I still swell up quite a bit. Periodically I try on my fat pants but even though they start off fine I swell out of them in a few hours.

    I broke down and took my measurements. I had planned on waiting until day 15.

    Date Upper Arm Chest Waist Tummy Hips Thigh Neck

    3/16/2012 11.75 36.5 29.75 32.5 35.25 19.25 13.25
    3/26/2012 11.25 35.75 29 31.25 34.75 19 12.75

    I have been grossing out about my turkey wattle arms this last several months so I'm thrilled they are a bit smaller. My problem area really is my waist and tummy so I'm thrilled they are smaller.

    I actually wore my fat jeans all day. I think I may be swelling a little less but I think I also got a little smaller so even with the swelling I can fit in my jeans.

    The pants I couldn't wear before starting are now fitting perfectly! I slid into them after the 5th day, and it was amazing! Just finished day 7. Looking forward to 30!

    Okay, I must say that I've binged 2 days out of the two weeks or so since I started 30DS buuuttttt... no movement on scales and only 0.5 inches off my hips.

    Just weighed in! No change on the scale, but I did loose a total of 5.75 inches since starting 30 DS on Monday. Holy Smokes!

    Great job! It doesn't matter how much we weigh just what we look like we weigh.

    Who loves the scale?!? Me! I lost another 3 lbs! I am in complete shock, because I am only on Day 7: Level 1. That is a total of 5 lbs so far! Whahoo! Keep pressing everyone! Can't wait to see your before and after pics. #30dayshred
