I'm going to start it.  Has anyone done it?

I've had zero luck in motiviating myself to get back into shape since DD was born.  I have to do something.

    Yes.  It works.  Eat well and you will see results.

    I have it, and I would do it randomly if I didn't have time to go the gym or whatever.

    It is a good workout, and it's TOUGH, but for only 20-25 minutes for each day. You will be sore after the first few days, but I know from other people that have done it that it works.

    And it's only $10.

    These are the reasons I'm wanting to do it.  I'm going to buy it this weekend.  Do I need weights or anything?

    ETA:  I've also started eating better than I have been eating (it's only been two weeks, but hey, you gotta start somewhere).  I'll still get whatever I want when we go out to eat, but the things I keep in the house are much healthier than before.

    I finished it.  I do other stuff too, so I don't do 30 days through, but I only take maybe 1 day off at a time.

    You will need weights. I started with 3lb weights, but you can do anywhere from 3-5 I would say. If you're feeling super ambitious, probably 8lbs.

    There are a lot of reps, so find a weight you can manage through 25+ repetitions of an exercise.

    I'll probably go with 3 pounders.  I just want to tone my arms, not duplicate Jillian's.

    Thanks for the advice!

    I actually did all of it. It's really hard but don't be discouraged if you don't lose 50 lbs afterwards. I'm currently on insanity work out and I wish I was back on jillians lol. But honestly I think that "burn fat boost metabolism" dvd is waaaay better but it is longer....    Tongue out

    I have been alternating with  one day Banish Fat, Boost Metabolism and the next day No More Trouble Zones. They are both great workouts. I have 30 day shred too but switched to these because I wanted a longer workout. Good Luck!

    I haven't done30 Day Shred, but I have done other two Jillian workouts.  They are really good...tough in the beginning...but they get easier the more you do them.  I used to host a group workout at work and several people would only stay for the beginning part of the exercise.   Give it a go and push through it.  You will feel awesome when you're done!
