    I started 30 day shred two days ago! I have been working out for about a month now. I will be making sure I do. Strechest
    today I was just looking up if it was normal to not be able to sit or do stairs without pain after this workout. So yes anyone reading stretch first. Or you will be in pain like me! Good luck everyone!

    By all means, go for it!!...I lost so many inches doing 30DS. As someone else said, stretch as much as possible because you will FEEL IT!!

    I just believe you cannot go wrong with Jillian, I have all her videos.

    I've done the shred 3 days in a row now. I feel it in my butt and my arms the most. I am also like big timee dieting. On Sunday I was 260. Today (Thursday) I'm 252. I have a lot of helpful factors, like I work in retail so I spend 8 hours standing....sometimes lifting heavy stuff. But all of those things combined...well....lets just say my fat suit should come off in no time!

    That's great! Remember to stretch more than she does at the end and take a day break every few days. The 30DS was NOT intended to be done in 30 days straight. Guest wishes! You're already seeing results and that is amazing!

    Awesome idea! I just started. I've done 2 days...and hurting. Tired of her voice already and last night I thought about muting her. What I love about it is it's only 20 minutes, I sweat like a pig (even after running 4 miles) and I can do this at home any time of the day or night!

    Unfortunately I never completed the 30 day shred. I got to day 13 then birthday/summer activities kicked in and I completely fell off the wagon. I am starting over..TODAY!!!

    I started it on Sunday. Hell of a workout! Only problem for me was that I have a large chest and the jumping jacks suck (ending up just moving my legs for most of it and holding my boobs). Probably didn't get as much out of it that way, but what are ya going to do! Good luck!

    I started the 30 Day Shred last Friday, July 20th. I LOVE this program and Jillian is a beast! Lol. Today was my 12th day and level 2 is definitely a challenge but I am already seeing amazing results. I'm not sure of my measurements but I know I've dropped a few because I can see and feel it in my clothes. I've also lost 6 pounds since starting! This program is so worth doing and I actually look forward to working out because I know my results will only get better.

    Stick to it because you will not regret it! :)

    I'm on Day 4 of Level 1.

    I was doing really well until today. I woke up to excruciating pain in my calves. lol
    I've stretched out a lot of the pain, and am hoping it will die down before my workout later.

    I'll be doing 5 days on 30 DS (weekdays), then a day of running, and a day of rest.

    Tough, but I know I can do it. I've gained almost all of this weight over the past year, and it has overstayed its welcome.


    edit: Oh, I have lost 2 lbs so far.

    I certainly saw a difference in my shape but I didn't lose much weight even though I was controlling what I was eating so that sort of made me stop, its a great worksout as long as your not obsessed with your weight x I did it 5 days and had 2 days rest

    Ya, its about 10 days for level 1, 10 days for level 2, 10 days for level 3. and you can take 2 days break between each level.

    Sooo; from what I'm understanding, you are supposed to do the 30 Day Shred everyday? Is that the intent of the program? Someone just gave me the DVD but it didn't come with any instructions.

    It's recommended you give yourself at least one rest day a week.

    Not sure if this is the correct board to post this to. Let me know if I should post somewhere else.

    I plan on starting the 30 Day Shred tomorrow. I would like to hear your thoughts/experiences with it. How long did you do it for? How many days did you do each level? Did you take any days off? How much weight did you lose? How many inches did you lose? Pics? Advice/tips?

Yesterday i ended up having to stop in the middle because im too out of Shape! but today i did go a little Farther and i will Keep going Farther every day... Today i did it until i felt sick to my Stomach then i had to quit :/ but i will keep pushing every day a friend and i are doing it she lives in another state though lol... Add me if you want too :)

    I'm currently on week 3 day 3 (will do it this afternoon) of couch to 5k - but I want to add in something for weight training. I have 30DS at home but I remember it kicked my butt the first few days! I'm worried that if I start this now, it will hurt too much to try to keep running again on Sunday. I'm thinking of doing C25K followed by 30DS this afternoon and then just 30DS tomorrow and then back to C25K Sunday plus 30DS...any thoughts?

    I'm restarting the 30DS either today or Sunday. I agree with everyone, STRETCH STRETCH STRETCH.
    I was on Day 4 and then my calves had a complete revolution, so I've been on hiatus for the past week. Lesson learned. And I still would like to roundhouse kick Jillian, just one good time, a la Mortal Kombat.

    Good luck to everyone currently doing the 30DS or getting ready to start! We got this! :happy:

    I started 30ds this past monday so I am on day 5 of 1. I also walk 4 miles everymorning.. I will tell you what on Tuesday it was excrutiating to walk that 4 miles but I pushed through and made it and proud of it. Now even on day 5 i feel tons better and can to the workouts from beginning to end.. I do a little modifing because my left calf is in a lot of pain, i think i pulled a muscle but i continue to push on even though. I cant wait to see results.. Im actually thinking of combining this and her ab video my tummy is just flubber :p

    My last day is tomorrow. I started on September 1 and level 1 from the 1st to the 9th and took two rest days, so I did 7 workouts on level 1. I did level 2 from the 10th to the 19th and took two rest days, so I did 8 workouts on level 2. I did level 3 from the 20th to the 30th and took two rest days, so I did 9 workouts on level 3. During that time I lost 5.2 lbs and 13.75". This week I am finishing the program by making up the rest days to get to 10 workouts at each level, so I did 3 days of level 1, 2 days of level 2 and tomorrow I'll do my last day of level 3 and then I'll be officially done and ready to post my final results! I didn't do anything else during the program except one day of Yoga Meltdown because I needed to stretch out my back and shoulders. I've had to start getting new clothes because mine are all too big. Last night I got a new dress at Kohl's that is a size 4 (SIZE 4!!!!) and it's a little big in the shoulders and across my upper back!

    First day I felt good about it - wasn't dying, but felt like I had gotten a good work out in.. was planning on doing a few more days of level 1 before moving up to level 2.

    However, on day 2 I was SUPER sore and still did the work out.

    Today would be day 3, but I am limping around at work because my legs are so sore so I think I have to take a rest day already to avoid any damage. =(

    I'm planning on starting it again (I only did level 1). (I've been walking 5 miles 3-4 days a week, but definitely want to add some strength training in with that). One thing that I recommend that I did, was walk on a tredmill or just around the house or outside for 10 minutes. That seeme to of helped me with sore muscles for some reason. I would be so sore the next day if I just laid around the house afterwards.
