    So I finished my last day, yesterday. I took my measurements before and after and I've lost a total of 8", mostly from the waist down. So i'm happy. Ripped in 30 days next!

    I tried 30DS out right before going away on vacation (maybe because I knew I wouldn't be able to go 30 days? Who knows why!) but I had to pause the video a few times. Can anyone else relate to this? Is it normal, or is it a sign that I am not up to that level yet?


    It happens. she says in the video not to take a break for more than 5 seconds but I think if you're gonna take a break, better to pause it than to take it while the tape is running ;) I wouldn't worry too much about it! It's a lot of work, but it's SUPPOSED to be.

    Second day completed today. Wow, it is hard but it will be worth it in the end. Please tell me it gets easier though :D

    So I previewed the videos last night and I'm going to go ahead and start them tonight. The pushups are what is going to get me the worst but I really need to build up strength in my chest and shoulders so that I can help lessen the pain I experience in my shoulder when I run. RIght now I can't run a whole mile because of the shoulder pain :( If it wasn't for the shoulder pain I could run a 5k with ease! :(

    For anyone that has done this before, have you combined it with cardio? 30 minutes of interval training is great but I'd still like to add in some running as well. How did it go combining this workout with cardio?

    I ordered this on Amazon a few days ago. Set to be delivered later today! So count me in! Question though for those who have or are doing this already, I try to go to the gym 5 days a week, so does this mean I should do this on top of that or in place of??

    Well 3rd day killed my arms were hurting soooo much.

    I measured today and have lost half an inch from my thighs and that is only after 3 workouts... whoo hooo.

    weirdly have put half an inch on my bum, but hey it works for J- Lo..

    Weight not changed yet but the inch loss have motivated me to keep going.

    I'm not taking measurements but I am weighing myself once or twice a week. I'll weigh myself tomorrow, we'll see how it goes. I try not to obsess over it.

    However, I'm already noticing a big difference in my arms and my thighs. I"m getting my arm tone back quick! I've only done two days too!

    Well, I couldn't do day 3 yesterday.. my shoulder was just giving me too much trouble. They're still really tight and hurting pretty bad today too but I'm going to try again tonight anyways. I must workout today! Today is potluck day at work!

    I had the day off yesterday as well, went spinning instead, will get back on it tonight.

    My jeans seem to fit better on the thighs so must be working...

    arms have recovered.

    Getting some proper weights tomorrow ( can put the beans back in the cupboard) :laugh:

    hopefully will see some movement on the scales soon..:grumble:
