Just finished Level 2 Day 3.. I really hope these planks get easier, I can hardly hold myself up toward the end. Felt a really bad tearing pain in my lower ab's when doing the double leg raise crunches. I had to modify those.. I have no idea what I did but it's pretty painful. Oh well, maybe just building muscle LOL I…

Happy Birthday!!! Rachel I hope you get a chance to relax a bit and enjoy your birthday! It's great having you on board as a motivator!!! Have a wonderful Day =)

There is nothing wrong with staying on level 1, it's still a kick @ss work out! You continue to burn and your numbers show it. I'm going to give Level 2 another 4 days and see if I can manage to get through it better, just as level 1. If not I will then move to Level 3. I haven't weighed or measured since I first…

Took yesterday off for my son's party.. Way to many people at my house yesterday for me to get it in. I know I burnt a lot of calories but I will not be marking at as exercise, I'll just let it be a bonus. Anyway, I just finished my 12th day on the shred... Level 2 Day 2 and I really Really REALLY dislike Planks, any…

I just did Day 1 of Level 2 and I think my shoulders are going to hate me in the morning. I too had a down day yesterday, cleaning and moving around furniture.. It just got too late and with my hubby watching tv I wasn't about to let Jillian bring me to tears in front of him LOL So today was my 11th day! I will possibly…

Hi eveyone, Stefanie here! I grew up on the "Iron Range" (starting at age 8), graduated there, got married there. Then moved to Texas in 2001.. Lasted nearly 6 years and got back as soon as we could!!! Once you grow up Minnesotan you want your kids to grow up the same way!!! Now in Grand Rapids raising my 2 wonderful…

I'm not going to weigh or measure until day 15 or maybe even longer, I dont want to feel discouraged because whether I lose inches or lbs I know I'm getting strong and much healthier... I need to keep going and dont want to feel disappointed to soon and lose my drive. I hope everyone is able to post something but if not I…

Great job, weather your hear or not posting to all us MFPers, your still getting it done. I'm looking forward to a new level. I am on day 10 today and will get it done. I'm going to have to modify the cardio part though. I have replaced butt kicks and jump rope with grapevines with arm raises to keep my heart rate up,…

Glad your still hear!!! Do you think level 2 is harder than level 3?? I'm so curious.. :) I hope you see great results with your measurements, just think your almost half way there.

I'm interested to hear the responses, I have listed myself as sedentary also since I work at a computer all day, however since being on here I get in walks, exercise and go to the gym often. I make sure I get up and get some stuff done and move around instead of sit all day. ?? Great question!

DJ I think that you can stay with the level 1 and move on when you feel "comfortable" I guess it should be a little challenging. Level 2 is tougher, I can remember when I did this a long time ago, level 2 was harder for me than level 3... Weird I know! You could try level 2 for a couple days and if you feel your not…

Looks like I'm a day behind almost everyone, I haven't had a break hoping that I would catch up to the group LOL Today I finished Level 1 Day 9. Seemed much easier today and that's wonderful... Means I'm stronger and tomorrow will be my last day on level 1, I'm ready to move on! Messed up last night and ate out- High…

Done!! Yes!! Off to Ice those Shins =) Thanks for the motivation!

I'm so dragging today, It's my day 7 of 30DS, I've made the kids move their huge train village they have set up in my "exercise Spot" in front of the TV, so I have to do it or my 7 yr old boy wont let me live it down LOL Still hurting from shin spints, it's a real pain walking down stairs :( I have bought some wonderful…

Dj you have such an amazing attitude!!! Thank YOU =) Today I mutted Jillian and added Pitbull, Rianna,Hot Chelle Rae, Gym Class Heros, etc... Way better I was so much more energized!! I blew through it!!! Highly recomment muting her and listening to something up beat, I sang most of the way through my panting LOL =) Off to…

Level 1 Day 5 30DS. Today I mutted Jillian and added Pitbull, Rianna,Hot Chelle Rae, Gym Class Heros, etc... Way better I was so much more energized!! I blew through it!!! Highly recomment muting her and listening to something up beat, I sang most of the way through my panting LOL =) Off to the Y later for my Precor burn!

Grand Marnier w/1800 Reposado tequila Margaritta on the rocks please =) It's been at least 2 months now LOL

Just imagine, You have lost 1/2 inch possibly on your waist or non at all, it's only been 6 days... Imagine what the end of 30 will bring!!! I've heard a lot of people actually gaining weight at first with this program, as fat is replaced with muscle.. muscle is denser. I will be weighing myself and measuring myself again…

Just completed Day 4 of Level 1. It is getting easier and I really want to keep it up. Not going to the Y today, I'm giving myself a break and will go tomorrow after lunch to burn off some calories. Today is a down sort of day, it's -24 with the wind, cloud and blustery, I just want to stay home and curl up on the couch…

I'm of course behind the group and trying not to look ahead at the results of others tooo much :) I just complete Level 1 Day 3, my calves are tight, think I'll pull out a tennis ball this afternoon and try to loosen them up. Try to get to the Y for some precor cardio too, we will see =) Good Luck to all on your days…

Just finished Level 1 Day 2 of 30DS. I'm sore today but I got it done, doesn't feel great when she say's that's it we are done. Oh yes, thank you Jillian. 1 more crunch and I was gonna start yelling LOL

Okay, finally found my DVD. Was tucked away in my suitcase from August when I was ambicious and thought I'd continue it on my summer vacation LOL So Day one and I really did not like the lateral raises with the weights... YUCK. I've gotten weak since the last time I've done this. I was so thankful when she said "we are…

26 Years on Flute, amazing how you can leave it for a long time and pick it back up again like it was yesterday, I will never get rid of that flute ;) higher Alto but not Soprano. Really want to learn guitar... Hmmm new goal :) LOVE TO SING!!

These are great =) I have different Genre Favs. I'd have to group by R&B, Rap, Pop, Top 40, Oldies. the list goes on and one LOL

Hi Everyone, I'm Stefanie. This will be my second go round with 30DS, made it to 12 days but not in a row =) I have an 8 year old and a 5 year old and I sit at a computer all day working for peanuts LOL I hear so much about how great the results of the shred are and would LOVE to see them for myself.

Used the shred about 5 months ago and want to get back on it. I will pop it in tomorrow =) Please count me in!

Would be great to find a Twin :) Stats! GW: 115-120 CW: 143 SW: 143 Height: 5'2" Age: 35 Sex: Female Twin are you out there???

Love seeing progress photos, gets me all hyped up to take some of my own and look towards the goal of a final picture!! EXCELLENT WORK!!!!!!!!

New weight loss journey woman here!! I need to drop at least 25 pounds and get back to feeling energized and fit. I just wish I had others to join me, I work out alone and the YMCA and find it hard to beat the blah's there. I will try to keep motivated and this is a good start, seeing what calories I take in on the food…

I "over" drank water not to long ago and ended up with leg cramping, much like dehydration. The over water consumpsion diluted my Potassium. I wasn't spreading my water out enough over a day, was usually chugging to much at one time. Now I make sure to start in the morning and continue slowly throughout the day. I agree…
