30 day shred thread!
Holy ***** god do I need a nap 
My review:
Jillian Michaels is the devil reincarnated, but boy does she do a good job of getting you to sweat, use all your muscle groups, get the heart rate elevated for the whole 20 minutes...
I did the level 1 and cannot imagine what the level 2 has in store. I think I'll do level 1 for a week or until I feel I'm ready for a harder workout but this really kicked my fat azz.
I work out fairly regularly (gym 4 days/week) but this was an incrediblle workout and something that changes things up!
The reviews I've read are so positive...people are losing the last 10/15 pounds they couldn't get rid of b/c of the way the workout is designed.
I highly recommend this!! Let's see what happens after 30 days!!

Re: I just did the Jillian Michaels 30 day shred
I order the Dvd and cant wait to try it. I hear it was tough but I like tough. Does she tell you how many times a week to do it?

Re: I just did the Jillian Michaels 30 day shred
I want to buy this so bad. I was just waiting for someone to get it and tell me how it was. I'm going to give it a try.

She doesn't! I was waiting to hear how many times/week you're supposed to do it..
But the reviews I've read said that most people are doing 5x/week. Seems about right to me, I need 2 days of a break from working out!

I'm about to begin day 3 and came on here really quick Wish me luck! I am still so sore!!
I bought 5 pound hand weights at target a few weeks ago and use them.
At the end of the video there is a section where you lift the weights eye level and bring down and keep repeating while you do squats....I AM SO BAD AT IT!!! I Didn't realize how weak my upper body is. After carting around a 30 pound 19 month old you'd think it would be so strong, lol.

Thank you!! I think I am going to start with 3 pound dumbbells. I don't want to get too sore because then I won't do it again.
How long have you been doing this DVD? Have you seen a difference on the scale? in your clothes?

I am only on day 4. I am determined to take off 15 pounds by summer (July actually) and when I set my mind I am usually pretty good.
I started REALLY doing WW this sunday, it's now friday and combined with the DVD I am down 3 pounds.
I am happy with that! I can feel a slight change already if thats possible, or it might be the sore muscles talking.
Not as sore today as yesterday and feeling VERY motivated!
Hope its ok that i continue to update this thread as i keep doing the dvd! It helps keep me motivated!

Re: I just did the Jillian Michaels 30 day shred
Definitely ok to keep updating the thread. I am sure lots of people would like to see progress reports when they search for new workouts.
DH said I will get my DVD on Monday so that is when I will start. I am thinking of doing the elliptical machine every morning before work and then the DVD after work like 3 or 4 times a week (depending on how busy I am).
We are going to the Bahamas in 6 weeks. I'd kind of like to lose 10 pounds before then. I know that is a very crazy goal. But I am hoping to get back into WW and this video will help.
Thanks for all the updates and answering all my questions. Good Luck!!

Is this a very fast paced workout (like Tae Bo)?

Do I need to be really coordinated for it? I'll need another option if I do!

No coordination really needed!!
If you can do jumping jacks, squats, push ups (Which i HATE), and ab work you are good to go. I am not too coordinated and haven't had a problem.
Off to start week 2 now...I am tired (son was running a fever all night and crying  ) but I know i'll feel better once I do it!
