It's a good program to kickstart an exercise regimen. It gets you in shape quickly and I think makes you more equipped for more challenging DVDs once you're finished with it. I've started it again, I see results already and I'm about 11 days in. Ripped in 30 is also really good, but it's more challenging than 30DS.. I…

I've had shin splints the past two days which I was getting kind of worried about, because that is what caused me to stop the workout early the first go-around, but I woke up today and my leg feels fine again. I think I'll be okay to keep going because I know what caused it this time.. I was doing jumping jacks and landed…

Day 10 of level 1 and I think I've already dropped a size. A coat that I could barely put on when I started I can now wear pretty comfortably o_O I've been on a somewhat strict diet too. Really happy with my results so far. I seem to get stronger every day I do this workout.

I've had this DVD for years and have used it on and off with great results.. been about a year and I've started it again. I'm on day 9 of level 1. I'm not really sure if I'm going to follow the plan exactly because it wasn't until two days ago that I was actually able to finish level 1 using 5 pound weights for all the…

I crave sweets SO badly when I'm trying to eat healthy.. I just have random thoughts throughout the day about running to the store and getting Ben & Jerry's.. sweets have always been my main vice. I never really crave savory things, just sweets. The only thing that really keeps me from splurging is keeping busy. I find…

frankly i don't think it's anyone's business to tell someone they're fat and need to lose weight. it is cruel and just breeds self-hatred in my opinion. i was overweight in my childhood/preteen/high school days and nobody close to me told me that they thought i should lose weight or whatever, but now that i'm slim a few…

interesting post, thanks for sharing. i really relate to your point of view because i don't think it is something that i can ever stop completely. the times i've tried to have led to more uncontrolled binges. and i don't really even think it is something to be ashamed of, those of us that have this issue are the only ones…

i went completely off any sort of sweet "diet" drink loaded with garbage a few years ago. there was a time i used to drink 4 diet sodas a day and i stopped cold turkey. it was really hard at first, but it gets easier after a few weeks and eventually you won't want them anymore. any rare time that i do drink one nowadays,…

two eggs and a protein shake. i usually only do eggs but i'm experiencing carb flu right now, so i felt like i needed some extra calories to get me going again.

the most lifting i do is with 5 pound weights, but combining some strength/lifting with those and cardio has given me much better results than just doing cardio alone. i probably wouldn't want to go any heavier than 7 or 8 pounds though.

always. most of my workouts are cardio/strength though. i used to not wear any shoes and i ended up with sciatica issues, now i have no problems.
