Hey all, I am from Ontario, Canada - I have 3 kids ages 4 to 7. I play roller derby 2-3 times a week. I have lost 56 since on MFP, and about 25lbs before that, so about 80lbs all together. I have been incorporating 30DS into my routine once a week for a few months now. Last week my husband started doing it with me a few times.
I mapped out 30 days to do it starting tomorrow, and I actually CANNOT do it in 30 days. It really isn't an excuse, there are just some days when I do not have 30minutes to do it. I leave for work at 5am, get home at 6pm, and twice a week go to derby practice until 11pm. I am not doing the DVD at 11pm when I get home from a roller derby practice and then getting up at 5 the next morning. Sleep is just as important to health and fitness (and sanity).

So I have a plan to do 10 days of level 1, then 10 days of level 2, then 10 days of level 3, I will be done in under 50 days. I do not have any rest days per week because of derby, and one night a week my husband and I get a babysitter and go hike or run or skate together. I want to be part of this group for the motivation to keep at it

I like the DVD because it is short and intense. I use 6lb weights, and can get through all of level 1, but I struggle on the side lunges and shoulder raises, and drop to a 3lb weight by the second set. I have never tried level 2 or 3 yet.
