30 Day Shred starting Monday 23rd Jan

Katrob9

Hi everyone! Last time I did the 30DS I lost inches and lbs like crazy. I'm wanting to do it again but have had three false starts so I am setting Monday as the day to start and carry it all the way through the 30 Days. Anyone fancy doing it with me to keep each other motivated?

I would start earlier but this weekend is my hen weekend (starting from tomorrow) so I know I'm not going to be well behaved this week! :ohwell:

I started this week so I will only be a few days ahead of you. If that's okay I am down! Do we just post here? How do we keep in touch with each other? I just left another fitness forum to come to MFP full time so I'm a little fresh with things.

Just let me know!

I'm down. The lose 5 pounds in January isn't going to work and I think I'm re-setting my goals. I'd like to do a quick shred though

That sounds fab. Last time we had a group we checked in and said what day we were on and what level. So, it doesn't matter that you're a few days ahead at all. I found it really good having a group because it made me feel like I'd be letting myself down if everyone else managed it and I didn't. Welcome aboard!

Hurray! Very pleased to have fellow shredders who will feel the pain!

So my suggestion (like I say, it worked for me last time and I have kept the weight/inches off - I just have more to lose) is for everyone to measure themselves over the weekend/on Monday before we start. You can post your weight and measurements here if you want or if you're not comfortable then keep it for your own reference. I think we should check in every 10 days and say how many inches we've lost and how many lbs.

I'm going to do 10 days at level 1 then 10 days at level 2 and finally 10 days at level 3 and I'm going to do it every day with no rest days. Obviously if you want to do it differently or want to have rest days then that is totally fine too.

I'm thinking that I'll end up posting on Tuesday about how agonising my thighs feel because I find it tough on my legs. No pain no gain though, right?

:laugh:

I would love to start with you on the 23rd...been wanting to start this have heard so many great things about it but won't be able to purchase the video til this weekend so you can count me in. I think at the end before and after pictures would be a great idea too cause most before and aft pics I have seen from ppl are amazing and it would be great to share with others who are on the same track. Just an idea but thanks in advance for the motivation and support.

I am interested but can someone let me know the details of the 30 day shred please?

30 Day Shred is a DVD from the amazing Jillian Michaels - a lot of people have had success with it, including myself first time I did it. You can buy the DVD from play.com or Amazon for about £5, I'm not sure whether you can download it from anywhere though.

I'm going to do bits of cardio with it and just drink lots of water and eat sensibly so hopefully will see results. There is a diet book that you can use with it I think but I'm just doing the DVD.

I've found a lot of it on You Tube. It's probably not legal, but hey! it works.
