I moved on to level 2 last night. Those plank jacks and other plank jumping things are impossible! I did like 3 and had to move onto the modified move 
I mostly do the modified moves too! Don't worry, you are still working hard!!

I count it as 3 activity points. I figure it feels the same intensity, even more than a half hour at the gym (elliptical or treadmill) and i always count that as 3.

Re: 30 day shred thread!
i have done 3 days of it so far... i like it. i definitely feel the workout (considering i'm still having a rough time walking up and down stairs!). are you supposed to do it for 30 consecutive days?
i would love to lose 25 pounds, but i have come to grips with the fact that i just can't diet. i watch what i eat and try not to snack too much, but i eat what i want. i figured though that at least if i start working out again, i'll tone up a bit and maybe lose a few pounds. i don't think i'm going to do the video everyday because i don't want to get bored. i figure i'll probably do it 3-4 days a week; i take a kickboxing class or go to the track one day a week; and the other days i'm going to use my ellpitical and i do cruches/lift arm weights. i have worked out in some way or another everyday for the lkast week and maybe it's just mental, but i'm feeling better about myself.

Re: 30 day shred thread!
I just did level 1 and so far I love it -I used to do the firm dvds and this reminds me a little of that without the steps and the annoying instructors. I like J. Michaels and thats half the battlle for me! So far I feel good but will see how I feel tomorrow! It went really quickly too so thats a huge bonus.

Re: 30 day shred thread!
So I watched it on the train home and other than saying "guys" every five seconds Jillian herself was waaay less annoying than I find her on Biggest Loser.
I also thought nothing in and of itself looked hard (meaning any particular move) - I just know I am completely out of shape and will crumble the first time I do it.
In any case, for $9 (B&N member and a coupon) it seems worth it.

Re: 30 day shred thread!
Mini update:
I am on week 2 of level 2 (into my third week overall) and still going strong!!
My right tushy cheek is still sore (I think i did one of the moves a little too aggressively, lol) but I have been noticing some differences. My waist is smaller, my thighs are smaller and my arms are toning up.
Pounds wise I have not lost a lot. I've lost what is average to lose on WW which I'm also doing (2/week) but I am really happy with this video still!! It goes pretty fast.
I do have to modify one thing in level 2. While they are all doing plank abs at the end, I do butterfly crunches.
For me, there are TOO MANY plank moves in this one and my wrist was beginning to hurt. I think modifying 1 minute of abs can't hurt!!

I totally agree, the planks are killing me! But I'm still going strong and loving the fact that I can feel my body getting more toned. I've lost about 2 pounds so far.

Re: 30 day shred thread!
Mine finally came in last night!!!
I am off today so I turned it on and am just "listening" to it. If I watch it and she scares the crap out of me, I won't do it!!!!
I am not looking forward to being sore but what the heck! If it don't hurt, you aint trying!
PLANKS are the devil. Let's just say I've done my share of planks at BOOT CAMP! There is no need to do them for pleasure! I am real weak on those. From experience though, if you keep at 'em, you'll get better and they really do help sculpt!

I do it 5x/week. Two of those times I go to the gym as well and do extra cardio!
I can't believe I'M still motivated after 2 and a half weeks but I play the video every day when my son naps and I love it!!
To answer a PP question, plank moves are like when you're in a push up position, you are suspended like a bridge. They have you jump in and out or do ab work in that position. I modify it a LOT.
OH and good news...weighed myself today..down 7 pound in about 3 weeks! I am very happy!!!
