    Definitely need to lose at least 30. I'm starting with 5. Help! How are you all staying motivated to continue when the scale doesn't show you what you want to see?

    From what I have been reading do not watch the scale. This is because you may stay the same weight because you are replacing fat with muscle. Also because your weight can fluctuate around 5 lbs a day. So weigh yourself once per month.

    Oh wow, the same thing happened with me! When my grandmother passed about 5 years ago, I went into a very dark place... and gained tons of weight in the process. I too would like to lose 30 pounds, if not more!

    Hello! I'm trying to shred off about 20 pounds over the next few weeks. I'm on my fourth day of 30 day shred, and I must say I'm impressed with Jillian, it's a great short workout. I'm also doing couch to 5k and I do yoga at least twice a week. If there is anyone doing similar programs I'd love to hear your results or tips! I'm a student so time can be hard to find, and I'm trying to stay motivated to eat healthier and slim as a reward for myself for quitting smoking. I'm going 4 months strong :)

    Add me as a friend. I'm on a mission to lose at least 50 lbs. I also care for my brother so I can relate to being a caregiver. Sometimes I'm so mentally drained that I get physically tired. I need a bud to hold me accountable.

    Hello, I definitely need all the help I can get! I would like to lose more than 30 lbs. Struggling a bit, seem to have dropped a dress size?! (although that could be a fluke as it was one dress) but I have put more weight on so I would love your help!

    Count me in too! My target is 20, but an extra 10 wouldn't hurt me ;)
    I exercise everyday for 60 minutes, cut out junk food a month ago &
    feel great! Lets help keep each other on target!
