Wow, It feels so weird to be writing one of these threads instead of creeping on them! So, I have just finished my 30 Day Shred. I lost 16.5 inches (Keep in mind, I did measure quite a few places), and 5.3lbs. during those 30 days. I only took a 3 day rest break during the July 4th weekend, only because I was camping and there was no place to do the shred. I am 5 feet 4.75 inches. Besides the 30 Day shred, I went on a couple walks with my dog, a couple jogs, and ate the recommended 1200 calories a day plus exercise calories. I'm so excited to share my results! I hope you can see the changes, because I sure have. I'm also going to warn you that there are some wacky tan lines in the after picture. I don't ever expose my tummy, especially in swim suits, so that's why its so white compared to the rest of my body. HAHA! I want to thank all my MFP friends who did the shred with me and kept me motivated and for all of my friends who kept pushing me to stay dedicated! So blessed to know you all! Now after a week long vacation, I plan to come back and start Jillian Micheal's Ripped In 30!!
In the pictures, I'd like to point out that my shorts would not fold over all the way on day one in the back.. but they do now in day 30.. I can even roll them twice!

Day 30:

Here's me flexing my non-existent muscles!

Alright, so I told my MFP friends that I went to Target and bought a dress - size MEDIUM! I haven't fit in Medium in forever! (From the shred I have gone down 3 pant sizes by the way.. thats how legit the results are if you work hard at it!) Anyways, I bought this dress as a reward for my hard work with the shred, and I said I would take a picture in it, so here it is!

So there you have it. I hope the differences are apparent because to me they sure are! Everytime I walk past a mirror I do a double take and think.. they can't be me! HAHA!
