Finished! Thank you all for your support, I honestly didn't think I'd get through it but I did! WoooooooHooooooooo

Thanks for the support CCNYE63. Level 3 Day 9 DONE. One more to go!

L3 D8 done. I can't wait to finish this. I'm losing my motivation very quickly and that concerns me. I'm almost talking myself out of doing it at all. My old patterns have always been to pack it in and that means I would probably pack all exercising in and I don't want to stop. The weight gain will quickly follow and of…

L3 D7 done. I should be done by the end of the week. I'm getting bored with this so am looking forward to moving on. I think I liked Ripped in 30 because you changed it up every week but I think I might do some of the videos on the fitness blender site.

I certainly don't agree with her article, I was surprised that she or her team would put it out there. Since I've started this journey, I've lost 25 pounds and the grazing on healthy snacks helps to keep me away from all the treats that are brought into the office. I am not surprised at all at any of the opinions here and…

L3D6 Done

Day 5 done. I don't know, I'm not finding some of the moves getting any easier. Anyone else finding that? I'm particularly finding the jump lunges and the rock star jumps hard. I definitely can't get through the lunges all Natalie and have to switch back and forth between Anita.

L3 D4 done today. I took a rest day yesterday.

I have this dvd but have never done it. I don't have a kettlebell though. Can I still do it with just a dumb bell? Did you find it was a good workout?

Wow, good for you. I honestly don't know if I could go without a rest day. Most of the ones I've taken have been kind of random and I think I took 2 off each for level 1 and 2. I've just done day 3 of level 3 and found I was having a harder time than the first two days so was wondering if I shouldn't take a rest day…

L3D3 done today. I struggled through some of it and didn't feel I did as well as the first 2 days.I wonder if that means that maybe some rest is required. I don't really want to stop though. Does anyone else do that? Take a rest day because you're finding it difficult after a couple of days in a row?

Completed level 3 D1 on Sunday, D2 yesterday and plan on D3 today. I'm a little behind on my posting LOL. I prefer this level than level 2, I'm not sure why exactly but I do. I do struggle getting through a couple of the moves, the jumping lunges for one and the rock star jumps - yikes!

D10 DONE - Woo hoo!

L2 D9 done. I did day 8 on Monday but forgot to check in. Only 1 more day on this level thank goodness. I'm getting really bored with it and am rapidly losing my motivation.

Cambridge here

Hi Elisabeth. I'm in Ontario as well. I send you a friend request.

L2 D7 done. I agree, those squats and v raises are killers. My shoulders are so sore and then right into the plank jacks! The other one I really struggle with is the one legged one - I absolutely have no balance!

Day 5 yesterday, Day 6 today. Almost finished this level and looking forward to moving on.

I'm taking a rest day today. It's really humid here today and we don't have air conditioning but we are getting it tomorrow! Hooray!

Day 4 Level 2 done. I have to say I am feeling very discouraged today. I've been doing a lot of reading here on MFP and am wondering if I've been doing the right things etc on this journey. I'm wondering if doing primarily the 30 DS is enough (I also do kickboxing twice a week). I just don't want to be able to grab a…

I did L2 D3 today. I still have a really hard time with balance for the one leg exercise, I have to put my foot down constantly. By the time I do find my balance - we're done LOL. I find the plank jacks really hard on the shoulders after the previous exercise.

To beachgod ...... That's too bad. Good luck on your journey!

I did D2 L2 today. I forgot to log in yesterday after D1. I haven't found it too bad but I can't say I'm necessarily doing double jump rope. I try to jump higher but I'm not getting there all the time for sure. Maybe by the end???? I also seem to have a hard time with balance. Standing on one leg and kicking and raising…

Finally...D10 L1 finished. Moving on to L2. I still haven't taken measurements.

L1D9 Done. Wow, some amazing results posted! I'm chicken to measure for fear that I will be so disappointed with lack of results and will lose my motivation. I was already totally unmotivated today. I managed to do it though.One more day of this level to go.

I turned 47 last month and I totally relate. Please, feel free to add me.
