I am considering buying the Jillian Banish Fat and Trouble Zone DVDs.  Did you really like the Banish Fat DVD?  Would you say it is harder or the same as The Shred?  I don't want to get bored...is it too similar to The Shred or are there enough new moves to keep me guessing?  I am really having anxiety about what to do when I finish my 30 days.  I know I could just continue with L3 but I really want to mix things up!

I think the Banish Fat one is worth getting. It has a decent number of new moves and is definitely still Jillian-level in difficulty! It's very cardio-oriented so not as much strength or abs as 30DS, but she does work those in with certain cardio moves at times. I was panting so hard that I almost couldn't catch my breath in a couple of parts! I haven't tried No More Trouble Zones, but I did browse through her 6 Week 6 Pack one On Demand and it also includes cardio/fat burning but all of those moves also work abs. I may try that one sometime, too. You could always get super-ambitious and do all of them with her 30- Day Slimdown rotation! All of them are on Netflix if you have that and want to try them for free, too.
