    Jillian Michaels 30 day shred exercise DVD...it works, I have started it several times!!! LOL but Christmas may just be the motivation I need to stick it out.....(I get bored!!!)

    I was alternating it with other DVDs as I get bored too. I have so many to choose from but I find it better to mix it up work different muscle groups.

    I love it!!! I have not set a specific goal with a specific time line. I think this is a great idea. That's 7.5 pounds a month or 2 a week. That may be a little steep for me ... I have lost 33 lbs since the middle of June but it seems to be slowing down. I am down 2-3 sizes and that is encouraging ... I'm just scared it will slow down. But I love having a specific goal ... That would be 186 .. At the holiday break... Let's do it!!!!!

    Morning! I got up early and worked out. I didn't do the 30DS, i would've died, no doubt. But I did another video I have. And let me just say, my legs are more sore than they've ever been!!

    Welcome to all the new people! Can't wait to see all of our results come Christmas!!

    Hope ya'll have a great day!

    I started the 30DS today...I dread the pain and soreness tomorrow :wink: but at least I know that that short of a work out really is doing something!!

    Hope everyone is having good luck!!

    So are we weighing in tomorrow or start weigh ins next week?? It doesn't matter to me just wondering so I know whether or not to weigh first thing in the morning!

    okay so I lost 1lb this week and I am keeping that 1lb included in my goal so my first weigh in for our 30lb challenge is

    25/08/10 SW = 145lbs

    25/09/10 GW = 137lbs (not sure this is realistic)

    25/12/10 GW = 116lbs (I cant believe I just wrote that it is bordering on the delusional surely, lol!!!!!!!)

    good luck everyone, I am going out to walk the dogs soon and am gonna take my touch and on the way back give the C25K another go....... my achilles or lower calf has given out twice before but have rested for a long time so will give it another go.

    Thankyou for telling me that, keep me informed on how you are going. I might just keep biking so I can do the round the lake relay this year which is the last week in NOvember. (Huge New Zealand Road bike event around lake taupo)
