    I just started Day 1 again yesterday. I will commit to finishing at least 30 days between now and August and post my befores and afters then! My wife is doing it with me so maybe I can get her to post hers as well.
  • Brilliant timing on this thread... my 30DS arrived a couple of days ago and I did day 1 today...

    My husband is going to take some measurements and before pics later today (I know that's slightly the wrong way round) but my stats from June 6th (when I started with MFP) were:

    SW: 256lbs
    Waist: 43.3"
    Tummy: 49.6"
    Hips: 55.1"
    Thigh: 32.3"
    Calf: 17.7"
    Arm: 17.3"

    Really hoping this makes a difference before my son's Christening on August 14th!!!

    OK after 2 weeks (of SF/MFP/running/zumba) stats are now:
    CW: 247lbs
    Waist: 39" (loss of 4.3")
    Tummy: 46.9" (loss of 2.8")
    Hips: 53.9" (loss of 1.2")
    Thigh: 30.7" (loss of 1.6")
    Calf: 18.5" (gain of 0.8")
    Arm: 17.3" (no change)

    1st 30DS completed. 2nd due later today (when I've recovered from today's run!)

    Can feel that I've worked my abs and arms but otherwise OK...

    Tomorrow will be my level 1 day 3. I didn't do the workout yesterday because I wanted a rest day before my 10K this morning! And I'm not doing the video today either... tomorrow I will be back!

    Des-you will get past it soon...do what you can do, just do it!! WTG!!

    tbhoover-way to get day 1 and 2 done!! I have a really cheap HRM and mine say 200 cals for the 27min....so who knows how close that is?! I would recommend circuit training on MFP until you get some sort of HRM though :) keep on going!!

    Spud-welcome to the group!! be sure to post how you are doing everyday! It should get easier, once your muscles get more used to it!
    Tim-welcome to you and your wife :)

    Nova-great results for your first 2 weeks on MFP so far!! I bet you will be really happy with your results after these 30 days!! :)

    comcatee-how did your 10K go?? seeya back at the shred tomorrow :)

    dannidoc-seeya when you get a copy :)

    AFM-as you all know...I will starting on Wed (the 29th) but I did a run of it today, as it was in my monthly plan for every Sat in June...it is still hard for sure, but I can't wait to start full forced on Wed!! I do girlie push-ups and use 3lb weights for now :)

    jo_3-let us know when you start!! don't forget your before and afters!
  • Wow! How awesome! You have so many people joining in this challenge now! You are right, no excuses. Gotta get back on it. I have a concert I'm going to at the end of July and I want to look HOT! :) I'll be starting on the 29th with you! Are we still doing 10 days at each level?

    I've had the dvd for about a month. The first day I used it I literally almost passed out...my MIL said it had something to do with my blood pressure, so I quit doing it. However I've really been wanting to restart it!!! I'm new to all of this weight loss stuff though...where are you guys writing the video down on your exercise log? Is it aerobics or something else? Also, I have never taken my measurements before, so I have no clue how to do it correctly. But I will start the shred again next week, probably a few days before you guys on the 27th. Good luck everyone!!!!!

    I started the 30DS yesterday, so on D2L1, and my goodness I ache and hurt like hell ! I am also combining it with Zumba, and walking with my little man in his stroller. I have taken measurements and photos, and will hopefully see a difference towards the end of July ! :happy: Can't wait to see everyone else's stats !

    I'm looking so forward to starting! I tried the first few days during the winter but gave up. My butt/thighs were DYING and my house has 4 sets of stairs. I have a bunch of kids too so I'm always racing up and down the stairs was just plain painful!!

    Today was my 4th day, just did it this morning. Yesterday (Day 3) was the WORST for me, mainly in my thighs, but today I woke up feeling so much better. And I'm starting to feel the workout getting easier! Keep on pushing through! :)

    Just did first day last night, I am in (I think I will need other people to get me thru this for 30 days!)

    My ultimate goal is for 20 more pounds lost to reach my end goal, but I am figuring this will mainly get me shaped a little nicer, which is great too.

    Thanks for the group!

    I will second the perfect timing. I am new to MFP but I am loving all of the support and motivation. I will be starting 30DS with yall on the 29th. Thanks so much for the initiation of this thread. I will take my measurements and pictures hesitantly but know that I will be happy to see the end results. This thread is going to me my motivation through this process as I need something to keep me honest and on track. We have a vacation planned for August 11th to Garner State park and I am looking forward to wearing a few cute outfits in a smaller size.

    silvery-WOOT!! yup, the 29th, and yup 10 days per level!! don't forget your before pics and measurements!

    delana-glad to have you joining...be sure to listen to your body of course!! as far as logging it in MFP, if you don't have a HRM I recommend putting it under circuit training. And for your measurements, I am going with biceps, chest, hips, thighs, and waist. The way that I do it (to ensure that I am being consistent month to month) is measure at the biggest point for my biceps, chest, hips, and thighs, and the smallest point for my waist (ie. my natural waist). I hope this helps?!

    abbyy182-welcome :) only 3 days to start (for most of us)!

    LotsOtots-3 days to go!!! I do a lot of walking at work...so I know what you mean!! we are gonna have to just push through for a bit, and get this done!!

    tieen-welcome...we are starting the 29th!

    emzachek-welcome to you too! just start when you get it...and let us know how you are doing!

    walkinggirl-alright!! round 2....sweet :)

    Des92-you are doing great!! way to keep up the momentum!!

    Kory-welcome to the group!! I have only 14lbs to go til goal too...but I am in it for the toning like you...and maybe for a little jump start for the last little bit!!

    Givemewings-great start so far!

    Mariam-CONGRATS on your NSV!!! you are rockin it for sure!!

    bmwells-welcome to the thread and to MFP!! I also have a vaca on August 10th....so I am totally ready for the results that the shred has given to many others!!

    3 days til we start!!
