Ht. 5'3", Start: 175.8 lb, Today: 164 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 160 lb - EVERYTHING ANYONE NEEDS TO KNOW ABOUT 30 DAY SHRED:
I thought since so many people are trying it, and I've been doing it for 11 days.
Firstly: The 30 day shred is a 20 minute workout designed by Jillian Michaels, trainer on the Biggest Loser. Why she's so great: Every single winner on the Biggest Loser has been trained by her, not Bob __ the other trainer.
Now, the 30 day shred is divided into 3 levels. You do level 1 for 10 days (ideally, if it takes you longer to be able to do it in full for a few days, keep going. If it's too easy after a few days, move on), level 2 for 10 days, and level 3 for 10 days.
In each level, there are three circuits. In each circuit, there are 3 minutes of strength, 2 minutes of cardio, and 1 minute of abs.
The way that the circuits/workout are designed, you do two different exercises, let's say, for strength and then repeat... (view more)EVERYTHING ANYONE NEEDS TO KNOW ABOUT 30 DAY SHRED:

In each level, there are three circuits. In each circuit, there are 3 minutes of strength, 2 minutes of cardio, and 1 minute of abs.
The way that the circuits/workout are designed, you do two different exercises, let's say, for strength and then repeat them to complete your 3 minutes. The exception is in level 1 when, for the last session of cardio, you do all the exercises you did in the workout. (4 different exercises.) Also, abs is usually 1-2 exercises just for those of you who are groaning. ^_^
Next, the video claims that you can lose "Up to 20 pounds in 30 days!" Now, I can't really give this a thumbs up or a thumbs down because I haven't done the full 30 days. As I am on day 11 (I only did 5 days of level 1), I could tell you how much I've lost--that is, if my scale wasn't broken.
But, in the first 5 days of doing level 1 (and about 1-2 days to let my muscles settle down), I lost (listen to this) 3 POUNDS. THREE (3) POUNDS IN FIVE (5) DAYS. :-)
Hmm...any other questions? Oh, for those of you who think you can handle level 2 since you, for example, run everyday for extended periods or train for marathons, etc. do not think that way. Definitely start on level 1.
OH. I have one more important thing to say:
Level 1, I realized yesterday after trying it to see if it was any easier, is much, MUCH, heavier on cardio than Level 2. Ok? I think that this is because you'll lose more weight in the first 10 days so you'll stick with the program. *_*
Ok, guys, if you have any questions: just comment or post something if you have a lot of questions. :-) Good luck.
BTW, sorry lol, on Youtube look up: "Jillian Michaels level 1 part 1." Now, what I do is use Internet Explorer and put each part on different tabs so my heart rate doesn't go down while I'm waiting for each part to load.
Also, there are no "rest days." It is 30 DAY SHRED. You do it for 30 days-straight. If you work out at the same time every day, let's say evening, here's an example of why you don't need a "rest day": Let's say I work out in the evening at 6:00pm. Then, I go to bed. Then, I go through my WHOLEEEE day again. Then, at 6:00pm, I work out again. My body had 24 whole hours to recuperate. The same goes for working out in the morning. K?
Right, now, I'm done. ^_^ Good luck with your weight loss! (view less)

Ht. 5'1", Start: 196 lb, Today: 188 lb (BMI: 36), Goal: 145 lb - Ok, so this has nothing to do with weightloss (although I've been stuck at 188 for a week now and I'm so frustrated lol), but I just got an e-mail from a friend of mine for E.L.F. make-up. I guess it's being taken over by Nordstrom and right now, they're selling everything on their site at a deep discount (most of the products are 1.00-3.00). Anyway, so I thought if some of you are like me, I like to reward myself when I hit a mini-goal of mine and what better than new makeup =D! Here's the site if anyone's interested:

Hope everyone's doing well!

Ht. 5'2", Start: 241 lb, Today: 218 lb (BMI: 40), Goal: 150 lb - I have been reading SO many good things about Jillian Michaels: 30 Day Shred. I tried this about a month ago and could only get through like 5mins of it but I think I'm going to start it on Wedsenday and push myself through it. Is anyone interested in doing this with me? I think you do level 1 for 10 days, level 2 for 10 days, and level 3 for 10 days. You can find the workout for free On Demand, I've also read that it is on youtube.com (not sure though) Let me know!! It's a 20minute workout by the way!

Ht. 5'3", Start: 175.8 lb, Today: 164 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 160 lb - I skipped yesterday’s shred so today I am determined to make up for it—even if that means doing level 1 with my mom and doing level 2 on my own. Hmm...I’d like to see how much easier level 1 is now that I’m on level 2... :-)Also, I think I need to eat more...I've been eating between 600-1000 calories...

Ht. 5'2", Start: 241 lb, Today: 218 lb (BMI: 40), Goal: 150 lb - Just a quick update, I just weighed myself and much to mu surprise I was 218lbs! Last Monday (June 8th) I was 225lbs, up 2lbs from my previous weigh in. I have no idea how I lost the weight. Only exercised 3 times last week and I also had my fav. chinese food, and my BF made taco salad Sat. night w/ doritos, it was loaded. I had two plates. =( I wasn't going to weigh myself because my period started yesterday so hopefully when I weigh myself next Monday I'll be down even more. I don't know. We'll see. Hope all is well w/ everyone.
