I do L2 D4 tonight and think I am back on track mentally after a rough short week of strong discouragement. 2 days back with my normal eating routine and I am feeling better, actually woke up and was happy with my stomach reflection in the mirror so I weighed myself and was up a LB but am not worried about it, before 30DS…

I am wondering the same thing, I LOVE my routine of getting you before work every day with this shred but there are for sure mornings where I would stay in bed if I were not trying to keep up with everyone haha... I have the Ripped in 30 video as well as the 6 week 6 pack so I am thinking of doing 2-3 days a week abs and…

Level 2 Day 3 done and I am a little discouraged, although level 2 has gotten a LITTLE easier each day I felt 100% defeated after L2 D1, I am not able to finish every move and have had to modify even more then Anita for some. Also I have had a "fat day" for 3 days now after a long weekend of beer and hot dogs leaving me…

Thank goodness tomorrow is Saturday which is my rest day... just finished L2D1 and think it about killed me, even the shower afterwards was hard haha. How could she possibly make L3 even harder? Even though Jillian is apparently out to kill us we will show her!!!

holy cow!!!! i have to admit after learning how to do a correct lunge level 1 was not so challenging for me, more a good way to keep my body moving every day and work all my muscles.... level 2 on the other hand had me sweating, panting, taking 5-10 second breaks and either not completing sets, doing them very slowly, or…

Great Work guys!!!! I finished Level 1 Day 10 this morning, onto Level 2 tomorrow... eeekkk!!!!! I am so nervous but with the amazing results I have had from Level 1 I can only imagine what will come from Level 2 :) I have not remeasured or taken pics with the completion of Level 1 but I feel SOOO much better then I did…

welcome!!! so glad you liked it enough to do it again :) I just finished Level 1 Day 8 this morning

It is amazing that in 10 days your abs can change that much when you were already in such great shape! Great Job!!! With L2 & L3 being even more challenging you will for sure see major results! I have not taken any updated pics, measurements, or gotten on the scale since I began and am debating waiting for day 30 or doing…
-
L1 D8 done!!!! It is SOOO much harder getting up early to workout with this new times change! getting out of bed in the pitch black when my boyfriend is still cozy and warm with all the blankets is a rude awakening :( but... I pushed through and here I am sitting at work eating my yogurt feeling great and free for the rest…
-
So I to have noticed that while I am doing the workout it does seem harder now then at first, I am sweating A LOT more and my endurance is lower, but once done i feel much better then the first few days. I think it is because i am starting to work my body harder as i am learning how to do the exercises accurately and push…

i can not express how much the push ups kill my life!!! i am nowhere near moving on from modified pushups, at day 6 last night i was able to for the first time complete both sets but it was ridiculously hard and my arms are really sore today! the thought of "walking pushups" in level 2 worries me lol!
-
just remember how much weight work 30DS includes, not losing weight is not surprising. but you will be replacing fat with muscle, its really hard but try to ignore the scale and focus on how you feel as well as your measurements on day 30. what motivated me to do 30DS were all of the amazing success stories but most all of…

last night i realized that i had been leading with my front leg for the lunges and when i began leading with my back leg bending it the form was a lot more natural and felt like i was doing something right.. still need to work on the side lunges getting my butt out and my knee back. thanks so much for all the suggestions,…

L1 D5 done!! This last workout was for sure the breakthrough... I even did 10 extra mins (of abs, cardio, and some of the strength) cause I was still pumped and felt fantastic :) I am soo happy we are all sticking with this!!!
-
You should be soo proud!! This is so motivational :) Keep up the great work!!

I usually have no trouble sticking to my daily log, unless its an alcohol consuming day, but since starting 30DS i have been SO hungry and eating a lot more. i am trying to increase my protein as well as decrease my sodium but i think it will take my whole 30 days to re-organize my set ways. i have added a banana every…
-
it is VERY important to let your body rest when it needs it, especially with workout routines BUT i can not think of many examples of times i regretted fighting through tired mornings or tired evenings for my workout. I always feel much better after working out, i sleep better, have more energy through the day, and find i…

I agree! I don't think my abs are getting much of a workout cause it is so few within the 27 min but I LOVE the versions of crunches she has taught so I may add more of those after the workout each day.

Tonight when you get home, put on a hot outfit and go on a date with your boyfriend! Never let those downers make you down, you are doing everything right with exercise and eating healthy so shrug everyone off today, enjoy your night and remind yourself that you are fabulous!!!! the reminder of how you will look post 30DS…

-
PUSHUPS.... killing my life!!!! I find it quite sad that even with the modified pushups I struggle to finish the second set but it only leaves room for improvement i suppose! anyone find that squating for something as simple as sitting on the toilet painful!!!! hahahha TMI?????
-
haha my twin nephews who are 14 months will be "helping" me from time to time.... it will keep it fun
-
Day 2 DONE!!!!!! I did have to take a 2 day break in between day 1 and 2 due to being so sore haha but I am back on track and just keep telling myself everyone is saying it gets easier at day 4! My abs feel great but it hurts to squat down and the pushups did a number on my arms ;) we can push through this!!!!
-
finishing day 1 only made me want to jump right into day 2!!!! pumped :) the push ups and jump rope were my biggest challenge but i did every one and made them count :) i really feel it in my legs and as a little more time passes feel it in my arms.. but not really in my abs. does this mean i am doing the ab stuff wrong?…
-
I am SOOO excited to see results like yours!!! You look great!!!
-
I have found that my co-worker is my best accountability. We have become... (overly maybe)... open about everything we eat, do, get tempted by, etc. My boyfriend is totally my shoulder devil as well because we want to have fun and enjoy life, so I needed to find someone I see every day to keep me grounded. Do you have any…
