    Mini victory for myself, I actually completed an entire workout on level 1 of the 30DS and I did not stop to take one break. This is such a HUGE accomplishment for me because I ALWAYS would put the weights down for a 8 count:sad: or take a knee and catch my breath:embarassed: and for the first time ever I completed an entire workout with Jillian! Yay me! :happy: :drinker:

    Awesome!! Great Job!! I plan on starting 30ds on Monday and hoping I don't give up.

    This week: 127.
    Loss: .5 (I'll take it. )

    Goal for next week: another .5, working out 6 days next week, not eating junk, more water.

    TOM visited me this past week, so no weight loss so far. However, I'm planning on making some progress this next week!

    Same to me: TOM!
    Haven't weighed in, but I'm sure I haven't gained anything. I'll be sure to go hard this next week and have a lost at next week's weigh-in.

    @Moremari - so sorry you have your son's cold. Hope you are feeling much better soon.

    @Sam363 - Great job this week! Love your fitness plan, sounds like a great one!

    @Stariera - Amazing! 7 lbs in one week! I'm so happy for you!

    My weigh in is tomorrow. I was super on track through the weekend - worked out every day, ate right. Got on the scale this morning and I was up half a pound :-(. I'm ignoring it and will weigh in tomorrow. That half a pound better be gone. I really need to go workout but am just not in the mood - volunteered at the kids school this morning and they sucked all the energy right out of me.:ohwell:

    designerdiscounts drink lots of water today. Maybe the half a pound is water weight. You can do it!
    I will weigh my self tomorrow also. I am nervous. I worked out all last week and over the weekend so I am hoping I have lost.
    Good Luck to everyone this week.

    Hi all, not so good weekend for me as I gained. I did however manage to workout everyday so it could be from muscles and water. I think I am going to start doing a mid-week weigh in as well to help keep me motivated. Will do this on Wednesday. Congrats to everyone else on their losses thus far!

    Side note: I will be adding two more videos to my workout regime as I just ordered them on Amazon this morning. They will or should arrive by wednesday evening! Excited!!!

    I've been kind of MIA for the past couple of days. I went camping this weekend and don't have the greatest service out there to check in. I basically did yard work all weekend. Raking, mowing, etc so I got a decent burn in. I didn't do any actual workouts but I think the yardwork will suffice. We'll find out on my weigh in, I guess!

    Happy Tuesday! Today is a chug water kind of day- not motivated to drink it but I'll chug a little at a time :)

    Hey gang :) I just had one of those "light bulb"moments. Didn't have a great weekend regarding my goals. Took both days off from exercise and baked a cheesecake. There was a reason for both. The cheesecake was a practice round because I've been asked to bring one to a 4th of July party and i've only ever made one before. I am trying to make sure that the end result will be edible. So I've been happily snacking on my experimental results (pretty good, but it sunk a little and got one crack on the surface - tips, anyone?).... But anyway, this thread made me realize that the 4th of july party I'm taking the cheesecake to is also a POOL party. How I didn't really focus in on that before, I'm not sure. I think this will give me more meaningful motivation for this goal.

    I plan not to weigh (at least officially) until July 4 bc doing p90x and so far I've out on a could pounds which is upsetting considering all the hard work and then i tend to backslide and eat cheesecake. So final weight and measurements it will be :) goals for this week are to stay the course, enjoy the exercise, get plenty o water and focus on building in fruits and veggies. Thanks for the boost of encouragement and accountability.

    This made me laugh! There are worse things than cheesecake. Calcium boosts metabolism apparently, there's another excuse :P

    Check in:

    Oh well, I tried. Maybe next week....

    I went running more this week. Also did some P90x and took a gym class. Hopefully I don't eat anything too bad this weekend. I want to loose something by next Friday. Fingers crossed.
