It kicked my butt.
Seriously, I thought I was going to die.
Then the next day happened
But I pushed through and kept going and it got easy.
That's where my problem started. I quickly got bored and when Cody came home a few days later and school started and I just stopped doing the video all together. I didn't even make it to level 2.
And here's after (sorry for the blurriness!)
I know it's not a huge difference and I was told I didn't have anything to shred to begin with, but at day 7, I felt really good about myself.
So, this week, I started the video again. This time, Cody's helping me learn to eat right and somewhat encouraging me? Sort of.
I'm going to mix the 30 Day Shred dvd with some zumba and hopefully that will keep me doing it and working out. But, if you think about, encourage me along the way! I need all the encouragement I can get until working out is a habit.
Have you met this amazing blogger?

I loved the 30 day shred. I didn't do it consistently every day, more like every other day. I did all three levels too. It's amazing how strong you become by the end.
I tried the dvd too and had the same problem. I dont know if your interested but I switch it up sometimes with Hip hop abs Dvds. I know they seem corney but I actually have fun when I do them and be ready to sweat your toosh off :)
I did the same thing a couple times now. I started it and got a week or so into it, and then there would be a day where I just couldn't get motivated to do it, and then I wasn't sure if I should just do Level 1 10 times or if I should move on after 10 days to finish it in the month. The second time through, I think I did the level 2 video like twice before quitting altogether. Even though the longest I lasted was probably like 12 days, I did see a huge difference. I can only imagine what I would have looked like afterwards if I made it through the whole way. Good luck!
I need to do this! It looks like it worked great for you :)
I lost 15 pounds and gained 5 back in muscle with that DVD! I love all Jillian's DVDs they all make me feel like I'm going to die ;)
I thought it was a great workout! Same with me, though. I've never finished 30 days!
I totally feel you on this one. I got really bored with it. Level 3 is a good workout, though, so I'll be sending you encouragement!! :)
GET IT GIRL!!!
When I am cleared to workout again, I am going to do it again!!! :) & Alex got me the 4 week shred dvd too (i think thats what its called)
that's awesome, way to go! 30 Day Shred is tough, but it's a great workout and it's nice that it's only about 25-30 min long! I like to do it for a workout sometimes. Keep up the hard work! I need some motivation to eat healthier too!
You can do it!! I need some of your "get-up-and-go"-ness
I did it before our wedding & a couple time since (tho not all 30 days). I usually do level 1, 2, 3, repeat instead of 10 days of each level to help with the boredom. It really does work. I should bust mine out again :)
A few years ago a coworker raved about the 30 Day Shred! And I totally forgot about it until I read your post. Just yesterday I started the couch to 5k program, so I may have to give this video a try too since I heard it really works.

wow girl...good for you!!!
i'm so excited to be your newest follower! found you through the gfc blog hop!
happy thursday to you!

I lost my shred DVD, but replaced it with her Ripped in 30. I want to do it, but I don't know where to fit it in. I've also read that she didn't actually intend for you to do it 30 days straight bc your body needs some time to recover. I may try to incorporate it into 2-3 days of my workout routines. I currently run and do yoga. Trying to build in some strength training though, and this would be just that!!!
