From everything I have heard here and from reviews on other websites, I'm definately going to try this out! Apparently they are selling it for $12 at Zellers here in Canada!! I'll let you know what I find, plus I think I'm going to pick up the "Making the Cut" book too!! Thanks ladies.. here's to getting healthy!

It really helps when my lovely FI thinks I should sweat a bit more and makes a fire while Im working out (our fireplace is in the living room which is where I work out) he has done it twice now Im like hello I am already sweating I do not need a fire!

I never got bored with level 1, I did that level for 10 days, but I am already bored with 2...so I think I'm going to try 3 tonight and alternate the two. And, I know what you mean with the fire. We heat out house with a pellet stove and it is about 10 feet from where I work out and I'm like as if I'm not sweating enough!!

So...does the 30-Day Shred mean 30 days in a row?

I read somewhere, maybe on SparkPeople, that on Jillian's website she says to do the Shred for 6 days and rest one day.

I just got mine today! I'm leaving for vacation in the morning, so I'm planning on starting on Tuesday. It's totally going to kick my butt!

I am so psyched that you posted this! I never have time for working out (retail jobs make your life a pain in the butt)

 

I also did level one with the FI's 10 pound weights haha what an idiot i was, i havent worked out since high school. i thought i couldve just collapsed and died. I bought 5Lb ones today at Target (on sale!) Second day was definitely much easier. and i love it even more that its free on demand until Mid February here!

Don't you love that it's on demand? I keep the DVD at my apartment for when I stay there, and use the on demand at FI's when i'm there. It's way better than carrying the DVD in my purse wherever I go. It already feels like it's 50 lbs anyway. Lol!

I just did my first day of this with 5lb weights! I am sure I'll be feeling it later. I really like how she explains how to do everything correctly (specially when I am feeling the burn and not thinking about my knees being over my toes) and how she is like "NO BREAKS" if you want results don't stop...that kept me motivated! 1st dress fitting in T-28 days...so I have got to see results!

Megan you can get results! Today was my day 8 and I think my thighs are getting tighter that or they are just so swore when I work out they feel it :-) Today I did level 3 w/ 5lb weights.

FI was getting ready for work this morning when I was doing it, and he was like, "Yeah, she's pretty hard core, huh?" I can feel my thighs getting tighter too and I'm seeing more definition in my arms. I just wish she did more ab stuff because I really want to get rid of my little belly.

Does anyone else feel super guilty when they don't do the DVD? I feel like Jillian is going to show up at my home, yank me off the couch, and start screaming at me! I noticed that the day after I miss working out, I feel really sluggish when I go to do the DVD again.

[Jen_S]

LOL I feel the same way today I did not want to get up any earlier then I had to so I kept hitting snooze and said I will do the dvd tomorrow but I was I can't miss a day jillian will kick my ass tomorrow if I do so I got up and did the video!
