Hi! I've been overweight for the last 18 years. I'm tired. Having a hard time losing weight even though I eat below my calories (most days) and I'm exercising more but the scale will not move. As Dr. Phil says 'Hows that working for you ?" We'll it's not!! I think the shred may help.
Ladies please add me and keep me accountable..fuss at me, send me messages, post something about me not participating..ANYTHING to hold me accountable!!!!!
Thanks for your support!

I have been overweight forever and it is time to be healthy and happy, I also have to be a better role model for my children. I have started 30ds 3 times and keep quitting and I enjoyed it and don't know why I stopped. I really need to start and finish it. I agree with MsAnn07 I need to be held accountable and probably nagged but I will never complain. We can do this if we stick together.0

Everyone feel free to add me too
I'm the exact same, I need someone constantly messaging me and help keeping me on track and I'd do the same for them0 -
Hey guys
I am trying to tone up and for once in my life feel comfortable in my own skin I am not "overweight" but I am flabby. And the fact that I am not comfortable with my body is the reason I'm here.
My height is 5'3 and weight 152.9 pounds. My goal is to be at 130.
I am currently doing the 30 day shred, and am on level 2. I made it through the first level no problem--(although the first 3 days I was SO sore). IT GETS EASIER! My knee can't take level 2, but I am going to push through level 1 again during what should be my level 2. Level 2 is super hard so I am doing a mix of level one and as much of level 2 as I can get through.
I look forward to updates from everyone. It makes a HUGE difference having a group that has the same end goal that you can check in with and get some motivation from AND it's nice to have a page for results so you don't have to search around for them
If I can give a little bit of advice--
I use 3 lb weights for most of the exercises, but for the chest flys you will want something a bit heavier. I use 5 lbs and find them to be just enough and will look at using 7 lbs. Anything smaller for the chest flys just doesn't feel like you're getting the benefits from them.0 -
Hi there I am Vikki, I did the shred for 30 days straight in January and had awesome results..I used a group just like this to check in everyday.. I plan on starting over with level 1 Monday the 8th.....0

Hi! I'm Andrea, and i'm SO glad i found this group! I am starting the 30 day shred tomorrow, and to say the least i'm nervous! I am horrible for keeping on track with things, but i'm hoping if I have other people doing it with me, and hopefully giving me hell for not doing it when I should, that i'll keep more on track.
My goal is to do Shred every morning, Zumba every night ( or every other night, depending on my pain level as I have a back injury that tends to act up ) but a minimum of 3 times a week at least. I have big goals, but big goals mean big results, and I hope to be comfortable with my body by my vacation in the summer!0 -
Hi all!! I'm so glad I found this group! I started the 30 Day Shred by accident today, while Googling Jillian Michaels and looking for some Youtube videos to work out with. I'm listening to her audio book, Slim for Life - (http://www.amazon.ca/Slim-Life-Insider-Secrets-Lasting/dp/038534922X) and it is motivating me. It's hard to eat chips on your couch while listening to a super fit person talk at you, ha!
I'm not overweight, just a bit flabby in the belly region and feeling very lethargic after a loooong winter of "hibernation". I'm looking to tone up for the summer and just feel better!
My starting weight was 148 but I've lost about 5lbs "offline" in the last few weeks, so I'm at 143 and now I want to get down to ~130. I don't have any measurements but now I think I better get a cloth tape measure so I can keep track of my progress! Some of you guys seem to have this down to a science!0 -
I'd be interested to listen to Jillian Michaels audiobook. I feel like she'd have a very no-nonsense approach, which I like.
Glad you guys have joined the party!0 -
Hey, I'm Taylor I started the 30DS a couple of days ago, today will be my 4th day. It's nice to have other people to talk about exercise as it helps keep me on track, luckily I have a friend I'm doing it with which really helps 0

Hi, I'm Julia. I'm starting 30DS today. I have tried in the past, but have never completed the entire 30 days. With summer approaching I feel like I should give it another try!0

Hi, I'm Charlotte I'm the friend that TayaCurragh mentioned who is doing the 30DS with her As such, I'm also on the 4th day Finding it tough, but looking forward to seeing results! 0

Ladies, so glad you've joined the group!0

Hi, I'm Emma from Oxford, UK.

Hi! i'm Katie. I'm not overweight, but I am not toned at all and am very out of shape for myself.
I'm a former athlete who has gained 30 pounds due to a foot injury, law school, and the bar exam. I've lost 14 pounds over the past 3.5 months through mostly diet, now i am looking to add some lean muscle mass and see where that takes me
I also miss running soooooooo bad, and have been unable to do so for a year and a half. I am slowly working back into it.

GW-125 (or 130 if I looked super toned at that point and fit back into my pre-injury clothes)

I'm actually hoping this DVD helps me get in shape for some summer hiking as well. I have a friend who is getting into mountaineering and I'd love to be able to hold my own if I went with her.0 -
I just decided today that I am going to start the 30DS tomorrow. I am motivated to get moving but it is spring and rainy and I have not had much luck getting outside to walk/jog/bicycle. I am going to do this! I am nervous because I know it is going to be hard but after I get through these 30 days, I will have so much confidence and that will keep me going.
