No one has said JLO!!! But my body type would never allow me to look this way :(

I would consider my joints "young and healthy" (:P) and I find 30DS to be really tough on my knees! They have been sore after the workouts. It's a little too high impact i think. Don't know myself if I'll keep going with it. Hope you recover soon and find something that works better for you!!

Can I asked what type of diet and exercise you did? Wow congrats you look absolutely stunning and skinny!!

Are you kidding me??? Your body is rockin. Great job, congrats on all the hard work!!

So here are my Level 1 Results. I haven’t done any other exercise consistently alongside 30DS. Lost half an inch off my tummy, and lost half a lb. Not a lot. Can you see any difference in the pics??? I’m hoping for more visible results in the next 2 levels.

I brought this up with my registered dietician, and she said that there actually isn't a recommended daily intake for sugar. As long as its coming from natural sources like fruits it's not really a problem. If you're eating cotton candy, chocolate bars, etc that is a problem. I stopped tracking sugar too. After a homemade…

1/3 of the way done!! Any visible progress??

So I had some of their crackers today and guess what? Exactly like u guys said... Feeling the results of high-fibre! Good thing my husband is going out with the boys tonight :P

I do . I have my lifestyle set to sedentary, as I'm mostly sitting on my butt studying. So anything I do other than walking I log. Plus we are slobs so I have to clean a lot!!

In the morning before you get out of bed, stretch out your arches. You can also freeze a water bottle or golf ball and roll your foot on it for 10-15 minutes at the end of the day when you get home. This might help with the pain. If it doesn't get better I'd see a doctor, it might be plantar faciitis.

I used to be pretty uptight about keeping my calories on track for the DAY. But then I started thinking more in terms of the WEEK. Some days I'm way under due to lots of exercise. I try and have my weekly average be what I focus on now.

This thread's OP deactivated her account :(. Boo. Oh well, keep up the hard work and commitment to all who are still here! Can't wait to see all your before/after pics!!

Day 7 done. I can see how people might lose motivation getting to the end of level 1. Gotta stick with it!!

My doctor is probably 75-100 lbs overweight. But he's a great doctor. He is so clear with me and doesn't treat me like an idiot. I just wish he'd stop prescribing me expensive meds because I have no coverage!!L

I'm on level 1 day 6. One tip is be prepared around day 4/5 to get super hungry... Make sure u get enough protein!

L1D6 done! I feel really good for keeping at it for 6 days straight :)

I made a new salad for dinner last week... I (majorly) adapted it from this recipe: http://www.foodiecrush.com/2012/03/craving-chinese-chicken-salad-with-sesame-dressing/ It was romaine, cooled pasta (make it a small amount if you're a carb-phobe) with slivered almonds, avocado slices, and shredded chicken. Dressing was a…

I love all these things. Good choices for your imaginary cheat day :P

I would definitely have a 2% latte of some kind from Starbucks, a chocolate bar, and a beef dip sandwich, Thai food, or pizza :) Honestly, I would find it hard to eat all those things in one day. I do more of a cheat meal once a week than a full day.

L1D4 complete! Is anyone seeing/feeling any results yet? Other than being sore, I'm finding level 1 is getting a bit easier each time.

Oh my gosh, the side lunges are killer for me too! My adductors are so sore!

Hi! There's a group who have started together in the last few days... Over here: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/711359-30ds-starting-8-19-join-me I just finished my day 2 workout. I know what you mean, the first time I did it I was shocked at how weak I felt. And I'm sore, really sore. But day 2 was surprisingly…

I've only done 2 days of level 1, and yeah I can see what you're saying. But for me I realize it's only 30 mins of my day, and at least I can gauge how much time I have left by the repetitiveness (?) of it. I kind of like that. You've only got like 25 days left, and after that hopefully you'll have the results you wanted,…

L1 D2 complete. A lot easier than D1 for me. Interesting.

PS. If anyone wants to add me as a friend please do!

I've done 1 day of level 1 so far. I'm a bit behind you guys but I'm in! My quads, adductors, and biceps are really sore today. I thought I was in good shape since I do the gym 4 days a week, but I definitely haven't been pushing myself because I found this workout got really hard about 7 minutes in! Anyone else really…

Thanks everyone who gave great info and advice. I'll be trying these things. Not so much to the people with condescending one-liners.
