    Whew. Ok. That was awesome! And my arms are shaking!

    I can see the logic behind her training....Jillian is awesome and terrible all at the same time lol.

    So...day 1 of level 1 complete. Let's see how I feel tomorrow because tonight I felt like dying :-)

    Tomorrow is my running day...not sure how I feel about 30 DS every day.

    I tried it this morning after running, didn't go so well. She starts out with squats, and my legs just couldn't take it after running.

    Just finished day 2 of level one! yay! :)

    My thighs are so sore I can hardly walk the stairs at my house - haha!

    I log it in as 'circuit training' and set it about 150cals (because MFP is quite generous)

    Just finished day 2. I had to pause it a few times, but I'm happy with what I've accomplished for the day.

    Thanks for the info...I was kind of depressed seeing only 144 cals burned on my HRM....now I know that it's about average.

    Yea, I probably couldn't do it after running too lol. I'm going to do my 30 DS in the evenings on running days...I'm going to shoot for mornings on non-running days.

    One thing I've noticed since I started walking to work...If I exercise (run, whatever) right before my walk to work, my heart rate is still a little elevated and I burn more calories. Awesome little extra calorie burn without even trying lol.

    I did check it out on YouTube. I have to get ready for work shortly, but I'm willing to start on tomorrow.

    Going to commit to this....at least for the 30 days to see the results. I was sore this morning, but not unreasonably sore. I'm going to try a little harder this evening. I pictured myself as "that guy"....you know, the one in the back of the class barely moving as everyone else kicks it into high gear lol.

    I measured myself this morning. Hope to see some differences lol.

    I have the DVD but I've never done it consistently. I'm in the mood for some motivation and this seems like a perfect opportunity.
    I just need to find a way to convert it to a gym setting to keep me going. When im home I make excuses.

    Yesterday I did Day 1 of Level 3! And oh man, is my middle back sore today! I've really been pleased with the results from this program - in inches. I'm not as worried about the exact number of pounds but I have lost at least ten pounds since starting (that's in conjunction with a 1200 calorie vegetarian diet and other workouts). I highly recommend people take their measurements before starting the 30DS. I didn't and I realllllllly wish I had. I just know I've lost major inches and many areas have toned up. I DID NOT do it everyday. I alternated between gym cardio (spinning class) 3 days a week and the shred 3-4 days a week. I always tried to give myself a day off from everything each week and I never pushed myself if I was too sore. I decided I'd rather take the time off to heal up a little so I could go at it hard the next time then barely make it through the 25 minutes.

    Good luck everyone!

    Thanks for the info...I was kind of depressed seeing only 144 cals burned on my HRM....now I know that it's about average.
    Level 1 of 30DS burns around 190-200 calories for me (118 lbs, female, 29 yrs). Comparatively, week 1 of Ripped in 30 burns around 240 or so.

    I burn more running for the same amount of time, but for overall strength/toning I'm happy to sacrifice 50-100 calories burned. (Well, plus I will still go running after work.)
