My boyfriend had an out-of-town guest spend the night last night, and he was sleeping in the living room when I woke up this morning, so I haven't gotten to start yet... I'll have to do it this evening while they're out. I want to hear how everyone's first workout goes, so I can live vicariously through you while I'm at work! ;)

    Does anyone know how to figure out how many calories are used doing the shred?

    According to my fit bit I burned 183 calories today doing it. I on't know if that would be accurate or not but I will go with it. LOL

    She is going to kill me. Actually I started yesterday and today I am sore, but was so excited to do it again so I did. I love it. I feel good when I am done and accomplished. I spent the last hour doing 30 day shred and zumba and burned 460 calories between the two so I feel good about that

    did anyone else have to keep repeating 'bikini body' over and over to themselves like a mantra ?

    I completed day one. Still not sure if I like it. It is really boring. I'll keep with it for the full 30 days though because I definitely feel the muscles working.

    Did day one yesterday and it surprised me as I'm fairly fit had to be careful on some moves as I have a dodgy knee from running when I was younger.

    I DID IT! I was so tired at work that I went home an hour early, and then went out with my boyfriend, and went out to eat. I got home close to 10 pm and still hadn't done it, AND I was about 80 calories over my limit for the day! After my food finished digesting a little, I changed into some skimpy clothes and had my boyfriend take my "before" shots, and turned on the DVD. I finished just before midnight--right under the wire!

    I made my own exercise for it, with the same number of calories as I'd burn using "Circuit Training - General," which was 169 for me.

    I had to put down my three-pound weights for some of those "anterior raise + side lunges," but I got through them. Now for a shower and off to bed. I can't believe how sweaty I got in 20 minutes, and my arms are still a little shaky as I'm typing this, haha.

    Thanks for keeping my motivated, everyone. I knew I couldn't skip out on the very first day with everyone watching!

    I started a little late, but I did day 1 today along with an hour of zumba. I think this might kill my knee, luckily I have a knee brace so tomorrow I'll be doing it with that. And I think I need heavier weights. The only ones I have are 2 lb and I don't feel like I am getting anything out of it. I might try to pick up some heavier ones later in the week. And hopefully the stupid jumping jacks will knock my kidney stones out - cause that is what my doctor says I need. LOL!
