    I absolutely want to re-start. But I think I have to start next week. Add me and I will cheer you on if you will do the same for me. I started Jillian Michaels 30 day shred about two months ago but didn't make it through before I went on vacation, blew my diet, and got sick so I can't workout until the pressure comes off my ear.
    I'd love to get a bunch of us to all start at roughly the same time and track progress with pics. Come on guys lets DO THIS!

    It is a Jillian Michaels workout DVD. It lasts 30 days and you can lose up to 20 lbs. It costs about 10 bucks at Walmart..

    I started yesterday but I'm determined to get through it this time around. Last time I tried I ended up out of town and unable to do my workouts so they got left behind. :frown:

    This time I want to keep pushing through and seeing how hot it is supposed to get this weekend where I live I might not be able to do my usual walk and run unless I get up real early or go later in the evening.

    I'm interested... I was working with the group that started on 16Apr2012, but I had to move it to the 60d shred due to medical reasons. I'd like to try again, this time in the 30d.

    I've given up, absolutely impossible for me to do it everyday, so exhausting too if your totally unfit and couldnt function after it at first. Did get better after a few weeks but declined from every other to once a week. Decided to opt for the concept 2 rower, core exercises and short runs.

    The problem is, its so hard on yr body if you are totally starting from scratch, I couldnt sleep for days as my body was killing.

    I would highly recommend a good 5 min stretch before and after and hold the stretches a lot longer than she does, Before - 15 seconds, after 45 seconds I surprised she skimps on this. I will return to it when fitter.

    Just finished day two of level one! Didn't want to kill Jill nearly as much as I did yesterday! Managed to get through all of the push-ups, too! :bigsmile: Whew! Those are HARD!! I thought I was in better shape!

    Hope everyone here was able to get their workout in today! I'll catch up with all of you again tomorrow! :drinker:

    I felt exactly like you did when I first started and had a hard time making it to day three! I was just beginning to really put some effort into working out and basically started from scratch thinking I was stronger than I was. I have lost half of the weight I am looking to lose and decided to give it another try. I also changed my workouts to something I could handle to build up strength and stamina and then came back to it. I just started again yesterday and wasn't sure I would feel like doing it today, but I got through it even stronger than yesterday. And NOT feeling as beat up as I did the first time around. This really ISN'T a workout for beginners, in my humble opinion. :noway:

    Don't give up completely on it yet. Just take a month or two to get your stamina and strength built up and then come back and give it another go (and if it takes you more like six months, don't fret over it! It took me about six to eight months to come back to it). :wink:

    Almost wimped out on day three after doing a full two mile run in the heat, but I MADE myself do the workout. Almost killed her again but I pushed through and did it. I hope I can walk tomorrow! My calves are KILLING me and I am used to "running" around as I am a server (waitress) and work four days a week and also run two/three days a week.

    Come on ladies (and any gents doing this)!!! We can do it!!
