I am doing the 30 day shred, I did gain a couple pounds the first two weeks and also seen very little change in inches, I kept at it and I am now down 10 lbs (including the 2 that I gained) and see a HUGE difference in my body composition now. Honestly, I am doing other things now as well that is helping in the weight…

VERY NICE!!! GOOD JOB !! WOOT WOOT!

I am also a Zumba convert, and will defenitly be using the tape idea lol! It is so much fun! And the hour just flies by!

I am super sorry to have to tell you this but stretch marks are completely and totally permant. You may be able to find some creams that fade them a little but you will never be able to get rid of them and anything that claims that it can is a scam! Love your body whatever it may be, sorry for the bad news!

Per the nutritionist that was at our workout class last Saturday you want 1 gram of protein per lb. of body weight per day, ( and there are about 7 grams per ounce) so someone who weighs 150 would need approx 20 oz of protein a day if they are trying to agin muscle mass.

All I know is that Jillian kicks my butt for 45-50 minutes every morning, and I am seeing some great results. No one knows my body like I do, I know how far I can take it , and when something is uncomfortable. I then (being logical) modify it to my abilities. I do not know much about kettleballs other than what we do in my…

I am day three into level two, my first day of level one I almost keeled over! In fact Jillian make it a point to state that this is only 20 minutes and you have to give it all you have, I felt so bad for going half hearted that I played it again! Between the two times I think I did a good full one time work out, I…

I also had a hard time on the weekends. So I made my "weigh in" and "measuring" on Mondays. It just gave me more incentive to watch myself on Sat and Sundays.

I just learned that my cable provider has Starz on Demand and they have a free section, they offer some of the biggest lose workouts, including the 30 day jump start (haven't tried it yet, but I will) and also the Last Chance Workout, which I LOVE. To be honest one of the things that I really enjoy about the biggest loser…

So I finally did the shred this morning!! Let's just say that Jillian kicked my butt! Literally!! Those that have done level one of the shred know exaclty what I am talking about ; ) Wow, it was so easy to get back out of shape. I actually had to two do the workout two times, I stopped so many times throughout the first…

Was suppossed to start the 30 day shred this weekend but ( excuses...excuses...excuses!) All has been ironed out and I am ready to roll tonight ( no excuses!!) Keep posting your results, tips, complaints and praises! These all help out so much!

Thanks everyone for the awesome responses! It really is good to hear honest opinions. I am definitely looking forward to starting tomorrow! Just really want to stick with it! My goal is to get into the Halloween costume ( a cute and skimpy pirate wench costume) that I bought last year and didn't fit because it was too…

That is great! I start tomorrow and am both nervouse and excited, I am def committed this time though! I would love to hear how you progress! Good luck!

I don't have terribly huge breasts but they are "bouncy" and not the good kind. The best thing that works for me is a tight under shirt not something with to much give, it catches whatever is trying to escape and helps me keep my posture a little straighter too. It is tricky trying to find something that is tight without…
