So glad that I found this thread!!!!!!! I just finished L1D9 of the 30DS!

I am going to do a mini check point tomorrow and then I will post my results.


Anyways here are my starting stats:

1) 22 y/o, 185 lbs
2) I was extremely athletic (and had a very toned body) throughout my youth until I reached college. The freshmen fifteen + the stress of my dad being diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer (he is now 4 years cancer free) turned into nearly a 50lb weight gain. I have just finished college and have gotten my dream job which I will start in a couple of months. I have also just gotten engaged to my high school/college sweetheart, and it is time for a change. This is the time of my life and I'm tired of always being so ashamed of the way I like. My goal through this experience is to get me back into the exercise routine and help me start the long road to me being back at a healthy weight.
3) My food plan is simple. I have cut out pop, fast food, and sweets. Honestly, after Day 3 of the DS I had no desire for this food anymore. My body hurt so bad that it was not worth eating a burger out.

just checking in, weighed myself yesterday and after 2 weeks of the shred i have only lost 1 pound, but my clothes are feeling looser and im looking more toned and less wobbly so i think that when i take my measurements again at the end of the 30 days there will be quite a big difference, the muscle gain is obviously counterbalancing the fat loss on the scales.

level 2 is really hurting my knees though and i dont understand why JM doesnt do the knee circles in the warmup for L2, i am adding them and the hip circles to my warmup anyway, i much prefer the cardio in L2

keep up the good work everybody

Yesterday was my last day of level one and my first check point. I was pretty happy with the scale (down 7 pounds) and my waist was down 1 inch. I credit a lot of it to really sticking to healthier eating habits and eliminating soda. I always had a can or bottle of coke at work and now I have my water (with the occasional lime or lemon slice). I am starting Level 2 today so we will see how it goes!

Weekly check in. Hi all! Today is day 15 overall & day 5 for lvl 2. I had some shoulder soreness the first couple days of lvl 2 from the planks and wt but body quickly adapted.

Up about a half lb. @ 208.2. I wouldn't attribute either my weight loss from the first wk or gain from last wk to the shred. For me, my other workouts and whether or not I'm sedentary the rest of the time make a far bigger difference. But, I do attribute my increased endurance and recovery during jogging to doing this type of workout every day.

This wk, I'm focusing on HIIT cardio (themed "HIIT It & Quit It" week ) and my tom symptoms should go away so I expect a lot of fun and a scale drop.

Keep on truckin' everyone!

I've lost count of the days! I skipped yesterday because of the oppressive heat but I did get my 6 mile walk in, as my girlfriend, that I walk with didn't have work. So I got 6 miles x 3 within 6 days. Just finished the "dred" and am now cooling off in my bedroom with the air running on full blast. Today is suppose to be another scorcher with humidity thrown in. yuck! Hope everyone enjoyed the 4th of July celebrations.

L1 in the a.m. then L2D3 in the p.m.

I absolutely hate L2... (hence the reason I have incorporated L1 in the morning). I am looking forward to moving onto L3!

I just have to type something out....
I am feeling REALLY guilty about skipping today's workout which would be L1 D4....my excuse is that I was exhausted because I went to aquatic therapy...I have a broken leg and am obviously doing a modified version of this DVD. So should I just pretend tomorrow is my Day 4 or should I skip because I did stay an extra 30 mins in the pool and did aerobics. TIA!

Hi everyone,

I'm new here and would love to join this thread. I completed L1 D4 today. I did the 30DS back in 2008 (but only for 11 days straight) and lost about 4.5 inches in those 11 days. Now I am back and committed to completing the workout for 30 days straight.

FYI -- Jillian actually has a NEW Shred DVD coming out September 7. It's called Jillian Michaels Shred It with Weights. Here's a quick synopsis for it:

Shred-It With Weights adds extra weight to circuit training techniques that promises results in 30 days. Using a kettlebell or a single hand weight, Shred-It with Weights features two 30-minute boot camp workouts including a warm-up and a cool down. Level One is designed for beginners, with arm presses and rows that sculpt lean muscle. Level Two, features intense jumping presses and powerful lunges created to engage the core and fire up muscles.

I just discovered this today and was super excited about it!
