in Introduce Yourself
Hi, I just joined today, I've been doing Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred and haven't had any weight loss (jeans fit better though). I decided I needed to get serious about recording my food and only eating 1200 calories a day, so using MFP to help! I am looking for others who are wanting to use exercise and clean(er) eating to connect with and help to motivate one another and share ideas.

    Hey. I just joined again. I guess I need to add a real pic of myself. I have anew job I love and refuse to buy new clothes at the larger size but do not make the changes I know I need to make to get the weight off. I know what I need to do. I just don't do it.

    Hi! I feel you on refusing to buy bigger clothes for work. However I knew I needed to do something when all of my slacks were the (no zip/pull up pants) from New York and Co. They are like yoga pants for the office...haha. I would really like to wear REAL pants again one day!

    I have only done 30DS for week now, but noticing a difference in how my clothes are fitting. I really like Jillian Michaels (also just read her book Slim for Life) and I also will move onto Ripped in 30 or Bodyshred after I finish my first 30 days. Keep my updated on how it is going for you Cally!

    Well looks like im in the same boat. Im a 24 year old with 2 kids and a husband. I hate buying new clothes because of my weight size and could use some motivation to stay on track. I go to the gym 3 days a week and do leslie sansone videos and have seen a huge difference. When i started loosing weight i was 215-220 and im down to about 180. Please feel free to add me I like motivating people but also like to feel motivated ascwell.

    Why wait until Jan 1 to get started! I have 65 lbs to lose and after many false starts and excuses, I feel different this time. It is the moment I take control of my health!
