    Day 2: infinitely more painful than day 1. My arms/shoulders/chest do not love me right now!

    I just completed my first day of 30 day shred tonight and I am excited! I do Insanity, so I am hoping that the 30 day shred will help ramp up my results and I LOVE the burn!

    day 1 done last night

    Still need to measure and take pics but starting weight 149lbs

    Not aching this morning but I do stretch for longer than she recomends at the end as I couldn't walk the first time I did it last time.

    Felt good to loosen up and get going. But I seem to be retaining some water, my fingers are a bit swollen...

    Level one day 2

    I'm not stiff but my muscles feel more fatigued. I did the second set of pushups on my knees.

    My daughter set up my mat for me and then told me to take my shirt off to look like Jillian. if only it were that easy!

    I'm starting today, as well. How do you log it into your exercise for the day?

    I started last night, and I Googled it. According to one of the sites, you burn approx. 3.625 calories per pound per hour. So you would take your current weight, multiply by 3.625 and divide by 3. Mine came out to about 245 calories.

    For me, this calculation comes out as 1 calorie different to when I log 20 minutes of "circuit training, general" on the MFP database, which is how I'd been doing it. Nice to know it's accurate :)

    Are people doing this for 30 days straight or having some breaks? I was thinking of doing it every other day but seems like so many of you are just going for it daily...!

    I am also training for a 5k in September, so right now the plan is every other day. I have thought about doing 30DS in the mornings and running at night, but I don't want to burn out..lol!

    I did it last night for the first time in over a year. I couldn't keep up with the jumping jacks, so ended up doing a few less, but at least I didn't give up. I'm going to try and do it every day for 30 days and have marked in my diary when I'm supposed to move up a level - hopefully I'll stick with it. Starting to feel the pain in the back of my thighs already - I'm so glad I live in a bungalow! ;o)

    I've got an event to go to in 16 days so hoping it'll have made a noticable difference as there is a special dress that I want to wear. I started my healthy eating yesterday too and I'm finding it difficult to have smaller portions (especially pasta), guess will just have to focus on the dress.

    I checked my measurements (I take them every month and keep the details on a chart) and weight from when I did it last year and lost 6lb and 1 1/2 inches off my waist and hips in 2 months - and I only did it for a total of 30 days and it was mainly on level 1 and 2 - I never made it to level 3. So will be interesting to see how it goes this time round.
