Afternoon everyone :) Hope you are all having a great Saturday... Good here, I was feeling brave so decided to do NMTZ instead of day 2 of the shred and managed to complete it all :happy: I'm sure my triceps and 'saddlebags' will not thank me tomorrow but I really enjoyed it :) Auna01 - So glad it's not just me with that…

Hi Everyone :) youcrazything - sounds like you've got a good routine going there, i'm sure it will give you fabulous results :D sc193usa - That's fabulous that you've broken your plateau - they can be so disheartening can't they? Really hope Jillian continues to help and you enjoy level 2 when you get there. It's my least…

Unfortunately i know i won't be able to commit to 300 mins in the week :( One of the main reasons i chose Jillian workouts was because they were slightly less than 30 mins long. I am also planning to have one rest day a week so i guess that puts me at a maximum of 180 mins. Totally committed to achieving that number though…

Hi Everyone :) I joined too, thanks sasbw27 for the invite. I am currently trying hard to get fit and healthy for a Summer holiday (and significant birthday!) and welcome the extra support, motivation and accountability :D Here's to us all meeting our goal for the first phase :happy:

Evening everyone :) and welcome to all those joining in on this journey :) Just a quick one from me as i'm off out tonight - managed to complete day 2 level 2 of the shred. Can't say i'm enjoying this level yet but i'm hopeful! Still really struggling with the last circuit - my arms/shoulders just want to give up! I'm…

Hey Everyone :) Niittykukka - I have heard good things about ES&S - never tried it though. Does it follow the same 3,2,1 system as rip and shred? jmht345 - sorry you've been sick - that is so annoying when you were really ready to start the next level. Fingers crossed you'll be raring to go when you feel better. When i…

Hi Ladies - welcome to the group :D Katchez75 - hope the injection goes well and have a great start to Jillian on Wednesday :D DJ478 - Good luck with RI30 - i'm sure you'll get great results with all that you are planning. Thanks for posting the group link :) Di :happy:

Hi All :) Day 9 Level 1 done! One more to do tomorrow and then i can take my first progress photo this time round - eek! Looking forward (with some trepidation) to Level 2 on Monday :smile: Hope you're all having a great weekend :happy:

Evening :) Well, feeling proud of myself today as i had a day out with friends and ate far too much but still came home and completed Jillian :D Only 2 more days and i'm on to level 2 - at the moment i'm really happy about that but i'm thinking once i get re-aquainted with the planks i might yearn for level one again!…

Morning All :) How's it all going? pps7 - glad NMTZ is less painful lately, love that workout. After my 30 shred round i think that will be my next one :D lauraannelamb - that's brilliant that you can get some Jillian at your Curves, is it similar in style/content to any of her others? sc193usa - Well done you for getting…

Hi Everyone :) Another workout done - Day 3 of the shred and feeling really good about it. Aches and pains gone ... and I'd forgotten that Natalie stops half way through the lunges though! Lightweight :tongue: Hope you are all having a great day :happy:

Morning Everyone :) Welcome lizzymcg, srichardallen and ritornare :smile: Sounds like you are all going great with your Jillian DVDs so far - hopefully we can motivate each other to complete them all and we'll all be ripped, shredded and shedded for ever :laugh: I am feeling good this morning as i managed to complete day 2…

Evening Everyone :) Lucyloutoo - :laugh: Jillian always looks like she's having fun! At least if we don't find it fun we get the results :wink: DebbieSusanne - Welcome to the group :smile: Glad you are getting on well with RI30 - L2 is quite a change from L1 i think and L3 and 4 are mental! Here's hoping for great results…

Morning Everyone :) Didn't get a chance to post yesterday - Friday is always busy in our house! Welcome to everyone joining in :D bree1609 - Welcome, Congrats on getting back to Jillian, she's not easy to love but i do love the results! How is body revolution? I looked at that one but the cost put me off - especially as i…

Evening everyone :) How's it going today? Cathipa - Well done you for getting up so early! I typically am up then but never seem to get my workouts in as well as all the school/lunch/breakfast stuff! Hope you get your weights sorted :) sc193usa - I'm a firm believer in letting life in every now and then! I'm glad you had a…

Evening All :) Well done everyone, we are a motivated bunch at the moment - Hooray! Great news sc193, sounds like you are keeping your body guessing and getting the most for your burn - hope the 30DS goes well tonight :smile: Cathipa - Did you up your weights? What were you working with and what are you planning on now? I…

Evening Everyone :) How did all the workouts go? I am 3 for 3 so really happy with that. Might take a walk instead tomorrow just to give my muscles some time to repair, but i'm enjoying the workout at the moment so I might carry on! Nowhere near as sore today as i expected to be :D Good luck to everyone starting out, it is…

Well, I managed to fit my workout in before evening meal so really happy to have completed the two days. The squats were a bit harder where i was sore but at least nothing in Jillian lasts too long! Hope you managed to fit yours in too :D Di :happy:

Good Morning Ladies :) Looking to complete my Monday workout this afternoon. I was feeling good yesterday so actually completed RI30 L1 yesterday too :D It was as i remembered it - hard work but do-able. I modified about half the workout which i was quite happy with considering it was the first exercise i have done in a…

That's great Ladies, thank you :) I am sure we can motivate each other to keep going through the tough periods :D Di :happy:

Bump to try later :) thanks.

Bump :)

Huge thanks everyone :) You've certainly made it easy to ignore everything that isn't a Polar ;) Will do some more checking online and find what i think is right for me. Really appreciate the responses - here's to a more accurate burn :bigsmile: Di :)

Hi there :) Feel free to add me too! I have a 3 year old daughter and 14 month old son and hit my highest weight of 14st13lbs about this time last year, not long after his birth! I'm about half way to my absolute goal now and would appreciate some more support too :) Is everyone managing to find time to exercise? I have…
