Hi everyone, my name is Cala. I started the 30DS yesterday, and felt like I was gonna die. But today I did it, and was barely breathing hard when I finished. All I have to say is pain today, is strength tomorrow. You just gotta push through it, in order to get the beautiful, strong body that you want and deserve.

Hi everyone! I'd like to join! I started this yesterday, and I'm ready to stay committed to it!

I'm Christine, 31yo mom to a 12 yo girl. I work full time - sitting at a desk - and need some help staying motivated to move around in the evenings.

I tried this workout a couple years ago - only did it for a couple weeks, but lost a few inches all around. I'm excited to start over, and share this experience with other people!

Hi there!
I'm Lynsay, I've just turned 26 and I'm 150lbs.
I did the 30 day shred for 9 days last month but a few things happening in my life distracted me.
I'm ready to start again with the month of November arriving and hopefully I can stick to it much better this time around!

Hi all,

My name is Frankie. I'm 31 and have a 21-month-old daughter. I have started the Shred 3 times already, always quitting at day 6 when life gets in the way - I get sick/injured or my daughter is ill, not sleeping etc. so I'm really hoping that this time is MY TIME!

My problem has always been being an all or nothing person. I'll log consistently and workout full-on for a few weeks and then ditch everything and eat like a pig for a few weeks, hence I get nowhere! Since starting to use MFP properly, I lost 27lbs but then have gained 13lbs again these last few weeks, which just kills me when I think of all the hours I've sweat my butt off for nothing. I definitely need to find balance with all this and not to take on too much that I can't sustain.

I'm starting today (1 Nov) and hope to do the Shred 5 days a week. I also Zumba for 1 hour a week and I'd like to add in some more cardio too (some Turbo Fire classes), which I think I will do gradually so as not to take too much on.

5'6"
SW: 141
GW: 128 but actually I'd much prefer to have more lean muscle and lose inches
Chest: 35"
Waist: 30"
Across navel/muffin top/belly: 38"
Hips: 39"

I'm so disgusted at how much I've grown in a mere 3 weeks that I'm off to workout right now!

Good luck everyone!

Hello, my name is Carla. I am doing the 30 say shred (as well as I can). Day 1 was yesterday, and oh my, how sadly out of shape I am! Today, my shape feels like melted candle wax, just puddled there where I dropped in bed last night....to say I'm sore would be a bit of an understatement-it even hurts to type....very sad, I know. I have committed to trying to do this everyday, so, I will give it a go today again. Everybody starting out, let's keep on going!

Hello,
I started 30DS on Monday (10/28). Plan to do level one until next Friday.

Ht. 5'3"
Weight 204

Hi!
I'm Shannon, a 30 year old mother of 2 (3 years and 5 months). I've been using MFP for a few months on and off. I've had the 30 DS DVD for several years, but have never tried the challenge before (used intermittantly with other DVDs and the Wii for quick at home workouts).
Currently I'm on day 2, and I had to do 2/3 of the video with my 3 year old "exercising" along with me while the baby napped. But it got done!
I'm also exercising 2 times per week at a gym, 30-40 mins of cardio and 10 mins of yoga for stretching and feeling good.
I hope to lose 1 inch from each of my bust, waist and hips by the end of the shred.

Hi All! I am starting the 30DS today. I am 42 with 3 teenagers, a new husband and a full time job. I am responsible for my weight gain over the last 6-7 years and I am responsible and in control of taking the steps to get back in shape! The denial is over and committment is the key!! I am excited to spend the next 30 days with you all, lets bring it!!

Great Attitude!! Welcome!

Hi everyone! My name is Taylor and I have been on MFP for about a year and a half, off and on. I recently got married and is trying to be proactive and not gain the honeymoon 15! Also I want to look fit and toned for our honeymoon that we're taking in January.

Hi everyone,
My name is Kelly and I've been a member of MFP for a little over a year. Last year I started using MFP and a journal to track progress. Well, that lasted about a week and I was looking back and realized I still look the same. This time I'm dedicated to making changes and am looking for people who are in the same position I am in and want to create a healthier life for themselves in order to provide mutual support. I'm on day 2 of 30DS and have (for now) convinced my mom to work out with me two or three days a week. She hasn't seen the workout yet so I'm not too hopeful that she'll last, but I plan to. I haven't stuck to a workout plan and feel that it's about da*n time I do! Any one do this before with results? I did find that today was a lot easier than yesterday and circuit 1 for level 1 is my least favorite LOL!!

Also, please feel free to add me!! As I said I need the motivation and support and would love to be that for you as well. I need friends on here LOL!

Hi guys! I'm 26, and on day 2 of level 2 today. I first started the Shred, then joined the challenge. Already took my measurements after completing level 1, and am pleasantly surprised with the existing, albeit small, results. Hope to keep it up!
