This was the first DVD that I started with. I was in horrible condition when I started and truly felt like I was going to die for the first three days. BUT....after that I could tell I was getting stronger and I could tell a big difference in what I was capable of when I finished the 30 days. I always thought that I…

I love stevia with my Greek yogurt and a few other items. I can tolerate it in my coffee although I still prefer the taste of Splenda in my coffee instead. I love the fact that it is a natural sweetener though and generally use it before anything else at home especially since I was recently diagnosed with gestational…

This sounds so good!

Thank you all! It feels so good to not cringe when I see a picture of myself. :)

I think this is a great idea. Monday - AM NMTZ workout PM 5K101 - Week 2 run Tuesday - AM BFBM workout Wednesday - PM 5K101 - Week 3 Thursday - AM 30DS Lvl 1&2 Friday - AM Quick Trouble Zones Saturday - BFBM and 5K101 - Week 3 Sunday - Quick Trouble Zones and 30DS Lvl 2

I think the main difference in sugars is if it is a complex sugar or a simple sugar. Fruits have complex sugars (carbs) and your body needs to do more to break it down. Simple sugars are processed and are essentially ready for absorption by the body. This effects your energy levels and insulin production. This site has a…

I make healthy choices now than I used to but I don't consider myself on a diet. Years ago I had been a fairly healthy eater....whole grains, unprocessed foods. Then I got married and my hubby's diet wasn't as good and mine slipped as well. I used to do a lot of running through the drive-thru in the morning but now I make…

Great job! Keep it up!

You look fantastic!

I'm just about to finish week 2 of a very similar program called 5K101. It does the interval training as well with some coaching as well. I've been pleased with my results so far as I was never a runner before and my cardiovascular was always my worst area of fitness. I think I would have had more problems had I not been…

Those are very encouraging pics!

Yay! So glad you came along for the ride. We can help keep each other motivated! I have LOVED this site. :)

It all looks so good! Time to try out some new recipes!

These look awesome! Definitely will be on my shopping list.

I log it as circuit training.

Stick with it because it is so worth it. Like many others have said it does get easier. I did the 30ds in February and I had not been exercising at all when I started. The first few days were the worst but it does get easier. By the time I got to level 3, I was amazed at what my body was able to do that I know I couldn't…

Say Anything "Look! Water is leaking from her eyes."

The Princess Bride "This is your life and it's ending one minute at a time. "

Orgazmo! "At last, we can retire and give up this life of crime. "

A League of Their Own Next up.... "He's no use to me dead."

What a fantastic motivation! I love it!

Jillian is so awesome! I did the 30 day shred in February and I'm not doing the 30 day slimdown that uses three of her videos. I hadn't really been exercising at all prior to doing the shred and the first couple of days were brutal. It does get better though and is well worth the pain. In the month, I lost about 10 pounds…

Go for it! I was terrified to move to level 2 Shred but once I did I realized that level one had prepared me and that I could do it. It wasn't super easy but what of Jillian's is? ;)

I was still modifying the moves when I switched up levels. On day 8, I was really worried that I wouldn't be able to do the next level but I found that I was able to transition nicely from level to level. By the end of the 30 days I was surprised at how much more I could do than I could when I started the program.

This sounds so good! I'll be adding it to my list of recipes to try!

Fantastic! I just bought some eggplant at the farmers market yesterday and was going to look for a recipe. I'll have to try this one tonight.

This topic came up at just the right time. I was just looking for this information earlier today. I have a horizontal c-section scar and a vertical scar from having an ovarian cyst removed. Between the two of them my tummy is a mess. I was hoping that with losing weight and the exercising I've been doing that it would…

A month ago I was standing in line at Kmart marvelling at the fact that they had stocked an endcap with BL and Jillian Michaels workout DVDs and candy?!?!? After looking between the two items I suddenly had the urge to get a DVD and choose the 30 Day Shred since it was 20 minute workouts. I thought I was going to die the…

That's awesome! Congrats!

I bought No More Trouble Zones and the Metabolism Boost today. I'm going to begin the 30 day slimdown plan when I finish up with Level 3. I'm excited to try some of her other videos. Anyone else going to try that plan as well?
