    Hey!

    My name is Alison, and I am 24 years old. I turn 25 at the end of December, and would love to have finished 30DS by then. I am aiming for 6 days a week and 1 rest day, but I will see how it goes. My knees tend to get sore from all of the lunges, even if I follow Anita on those moves....

    Good luck everyone! We can do this! :)

    Hello!

    I'm Adria, and I started 30DS today! First time through, but I'm excited about the wonderful reviews it's gotten. I didn't get a chance to measure myself, but I plan on doing that tomorrow, since that seems to be the biggest difference. So far, I can already tell that it's gonna kick my butt though!

    Hello.
    My name is Katy and this is my third attempt at 30 Day Shred. I had to stop twice due to shin splints so I am hoping they do not return.
    I am also doing a loose based South Beach Diet.
    Feel free to add me for added support!

    Hi,

    I'm Ruth. I've just tried to do day 1 of 30 day shred. Almost 2 years ago I suffered a serious back injury which I am still dealing with. I have been at the gym working with physiotherapists several times a week up until very recently, and now am trying to get some exercise into my day without paying huge $$ for the gym. I am a bit nervous about doing it because of my back injury, but I got through the first workout today (with a bit of starting and stopping) and my back pain is bearable. Does anyone have any experience of doing the 30 day shred with a lower back injury? I am thinking I may need to be careful about some of the ab workouts on the floor - these seemed to make my back twinge.

    With my injury, I gained back the 15kgs I had worked so hard to lose in the year prior, and then some, as I was literally barely able to walk, I was pumped up on drugs that cause weight gain, and my cortisol levels were through the roof. So I am trying to lose that weight back again (although it is being very stubborn), and I have 31 days until my wedding so I thought I should give the 30 day shred a go as well as sticking with eating a high protein, low carb diet (a la Dukan Diet style). I'd love some friends on here if anyone wants to add me.

    Hi,

    I'm Sheri, and this is my first time ever attempting the 30 Day Shred. I completed Day 1 of Level 1 today. I'd really like to start the New Year healthier than I got into it this year, and I hope this will help to jump start my weight loss.

    Hey Everyone!

    I am so excited I found this group!!!! I am new to MyFitnessPal so I am still learning my way around. This will be my 3rd or 4th attempt at completing the 30 day shred program. My problem is consistency...i always start off strong but eventually find some reason to slack off. I need accountability!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hey I'm Kimbely I'm 22, 5 3' and 157lbs. I just had my baby girl on the 30th of September, and trying to get back to my pre-pregnancy weight. Before MFP I had already lost 20lbs.

    This is my first time doing the shred, I'm currently on day 6 level 1 and feel great! Feel free to add me you guys.

    I hear with the shred you lose inches rather that pounds, so if I look thinner and weight the same I'm still hap:bigsmile: py

    I'm on day 3 of level 2 today, and my boyfriend told me yesterday that I look slimmer + I feel slimmer aswell, I'd give it about a week / week and a half before you start noticing changes in your body. But it might be different per person though!

    Hey!

    I'm Suzanne. I'm 22 years old and a full time student.

    This is my third attempt and I really want to finish! I'm going to do it 5 times a week, because I won't be able to work out in the weekends... It'll take me 6 weeks that way.

    Good luck everyone!

    Hello everyone! My name is Brittany. I have been on MFP for awhile now, but have only recently gotten serious about losing the weight for good. My husband recently became a trucker and will be home approximately every 3 to 4 weeks. I am using that time frame for setting different goals, so I can make sure he comes home to a sexier wife each time ;)

    This will be yet another attempt at completing 30DS, however I am more motivated than ever to see the finish line. Monday (11/19) will be my official start day, and I plan on doing it M-F with rest days on the weekend to do yoga/pilates.

    My stats are:

    Height: 5'7"
    CW: 205
    GW: 120

    Now that I am an official stay-at-home mom of a 4 year old and 2 year old I am able to login frequently through-out the day. Feel free to add me :)
