I've just ordered Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred DVD after seeing so many of my US MFP friends talking about it.

So I'm giving it a go for the first time in the 30 days of June and wondered whether there was anyone else out there going through their 'first time' too?!

Would be great to motivate each other through it and cheer each others results!

Lots of love xx

    Oh, oh, I want to do it! I have been doing her beginner one since Easter, and even though I still can't do "real" push ups (I'm still standing leaning on the door), I think I need to move on. I will buy her 30 DS DVD on the first and a set of maybe 5 pound weights.

    I just started it yesterday... I'm very out of shape and it was brutal. haha But I pushed through! I am also doing 3 miles of Walk Fit with it for extra cardio. I am trying to get myself fit as quickly as possible for health reasons... weight loss is definitely a HUGE goal but it is #2 to being healthy.

    I am in for supporting one another because boy... I had to really mentally push myself to stick with it. haha

    Would love to do this. Started on this in April, but had to stop b/c I had wrist surgery in the beginning of May. I would love to have someone to help motivate me to be sure to do it everyday!!! I think I will be recovered enough to do it in June. I don't have the DVD... I just do it from you tube.

    However, how do I follow this set of posts? I am never able to find the topics once I finish posting. Thanks!

    Haha, I'm a little scared now! I play volleyball once a week and run twice a week at the moment but that's it.. hoping a little every day will have more effect!

    Thanks for the add! x

    I started in the middle of may, but I'm not doing it everyday, I do it on my non run days, so it'll take me longer than 30 days. I also cannot do a regular pushup (even a girlie one), so I've been doing wall pushups.

    As a 30DShredder who is now on Level 2 and starting as a beginner... I highly suggest you, actually, start out with no weights, then progress to 3 lb weights halfway through and work your way up to 3 lb weights through the entire program. 5 lbs doesn't sound/seem like a lot, until Jillian gets ahold of ya! lol :) Just my 2 cents to save you some soreness.

    Stick with it!!! :) I'm amazed how much I've progressed in a few short weeks! I couldn't do the butt-kick thingies forever! Once I did, though, I was so proud of me!! You CAN do it!!!

    haha It sounds like you actually do some exercise so I am sure you won't think it is as bad as I do. I am also 228lbs and it doesn't look like you are anywhere even remotely close to that, so that will be a positive for you, too. It is always harder to do these things when you carry more weight. I managed through it, I am sure you will! :D

    Im on my 6th day today, and it still kicks my butt! but I am seeing a differnece in my stamina, I am able to do each part longer than day 1 (about had to have 911 on speed dial on day 1 haha) Adding in extra cardio with it and loving it!

    Wasn't able to do 30ds yesterday since we left super early to go swimming, when I got home I was soooo sunburnt could hardly move so getting back on it today, feeling better and going to do 30ds today extra hard to make up for yesterday!

    Thanks for the advise! As I said, I've been doing the beginner one since Easter, and use 2 1 lb 12 oz cans of bush's best baked beans now. LOL I was going to post a new thread about the best weights to use. I saw at Wally World a boxed set of 2 JM DVDs that included a 1 lb weight for $10 that I might get plus the 3 lb ones and the 30 DS DVD.

    Oh, I REALLY need to get a sports bra too. I have to hold the girls down by hand now for jumping jacks and jump rope, and that's hard.

    Sounds great (apart from the sunburn bit!!). Keep going! xx

    That last sentence made me LAUGH! Don't do yourself an injury! xx
