    Hi! I'm Courtney from Wisconsin, USA. I'm a 34 year-old single mother of 2 boys. I'm 5'4" and I have about 20ish lbs to lose....I haven't weighed in for weeks so that's a bit of a mystery right now. I started using MFP regularly last summer and was doing well for a while. I also started 30DS during that time, but only got through about 8 days before I stopped.

    I'm planning on starting 30DS again tonight when I get home from work. My goal is to do the workout 4 days a week, and try to fit in some walks or yoga on my off days. That will take me about 7 or 8 weeks to finish this video, then I'd ultimately like to start the C25K afterwards which will coincide nicely with spring here.

    But I'm getting ahead of myself. For right now, I need to take the first step and do Day 1 tonight!!!

    Let's do this!!! :-)

    Hi I'm MerRhea (said Marie) I am 29 and determined to get in shape. I have a son that is 4 and I want him to know that it is important to eat right and excerise, something my mom never instilled in me. I currently weigh 162. When I first started working out/eating better I was almost at 180. I really want to get down to 135, but my main goal is to be healty and happy with myself. I am starting 30 shred tomorrow. I am pretty excited! Good luck all!

    Hi I'm Jessica 33 years old and a mother of 3 wonderful very active kids. Not to mention I work full time away from the home. I work out daily, and oddly I enjoy it. I'm on a new mission and I start out my days now with Jillian- I find it way more rewarding to get her in first thing- 5 am to be exact! I admit the first few minutes I'm not up to speed but that quickly changes- Those 20 minutes jumpstart my day and I'm singing in the shower! Now let get rid of these 70 extra lbs! Good luck you you all!!

    Hello My Names Amy From Mi. I got JM DVD 30 day shred. And iam on here loging my calories . Most days stay at or below. Does anyone know if a special diet goes with this Dvd. I got mine used. Also does everbody do 1 then 2 on the same day like back to back . or are these ment to be done 1 at atime. Just woundering how everbody does this?

    You need to give your muscles time to rest, so just once a day for the dvd. If you're not feeling the burn, you may need to up your weights a little. I started out with 3lb and I had to bump up to 5lbs. I'm on day 4 and it's getting easier :) As far as the diet, I bought my dvd new and there was not a diet regimen to follow. Hope this helps.

    My name is Mindy.....I am 39 for a couple more weeks.....I am hanging on to those weeks! I am doing day 5 today. I am also doing a C25k program....I did both in one day and it was too much so now I alternate.

    I live just outside ATL and have 2 wonderful children. I have lost 110 lbs already and have about 5 more to my next goal and 40 more to my gw.

    Hello, Tameka here. I used to be nice and slim when i was younger, but man i tell ya the moment i stopped being active and i was very active walking around my little city with my then BFF, I became overweight like a mf! Having kids made it worse of course. Since then i have been yo-yo dieting for too long!! I figure this time if I don't pull through then damn it i never will!! So now i have to succeed!!! :wink:

    Hi I'm amber. Live in CT with my wonderful husband who's dieting with me :-) and our 2 cats. We're hoping to start a family and are all settled into our new house. I have dieted on and off for years but this time it just clicked. I needed to get my life in order. Highest weight was 196 and boy did I carry a lot of it in my face as my profile picture shows you. I'm now currently 161.4 and very happy. My goal was 165 and I'm working on maintaining it, although I still keep loosing lol. I've been out of work since 2007 with a back injury that didn't help my weight gain and kept me from being active. Still keeps me from exercising a lot now but I pushed through the few months it took to loose the weight. I love working out, being outside, decorating our house and organizing everything lol
