Hi cm, nice to meet you. I got the dvd too and since this is a group for that I will start mine tomorrow. I have done the Jillian Michael's Body Revolution and lost 50 lbs in 2 months. I was strict with my calories, workouts, I drank a lean shake and didnt eat after 6:30 pm. I ended up quitting and gained 10 lbs back. I started MFP on the 1st of this month and now I want to get back into working out and this time make it to my goal weight. I do not know all my measurements but right now I am 200 lbs my goal is to get down to 160 lbs and when I get to it all depending on how everything is I might drop a few more lbs. Hopefully we can motivate each other to reach our goals :happy:

Hi, everyone! I have had this dvd for awhile and I have done it quite a few times. The first time I did it, I nearly threw up! Now, I can make it through pretty good. I started on MFP in January and I have lost 38 pounds. I am very strict about my calories and I try to eat as healthy as possible. I exercise as often as I can but it isn't always easy to fit it in. I still have 29 pounds to go to get to my goal weight. I have hit a plateau recently so I'm game to try the 30DS with y'all. I don't have anything to take measurements with but I'm barely 5'2" and my starting weight was 192 pounds and I now weigh 154. Since I just found this group tonight, guess I'm starting tomorrow! Let's do it!

Hi there, I just finished my first workout 10 minutes ago! I thought, why not find a group for that and there you are. I don`t find Level 1 super hard but it`s also not easy. And I hope my neighbours below won`t kill me for all that jumping jacks...do you know how to type this into the exercise part here? I didn`t really find anything there or maybe I`m just too blind...

Hi everyone

I am just waiting for my weights to arrive from Amazon and then I'll get started doing 30DS. To not completely lose my gym routine, I will combine it with going to the gym: 1 day shred, 1 day gym, etc. (and one rest day a week .

More about me: I'm a UK size 12/14, lost about 11 lbs in the past 5 weeks and completely flabbergasted by that. In the past I've been dieting at about 1000 kcal a day and doing 45 mins of intense cardio a day, not realising how bad that was (I did lose weight, but *very* slowly). Now I've actually upped my calories to a base level of 1550, trying to eat 40-40-20 as much as possible and also trying to eat back some of my exercise calories.

I still have a long road to go before I'm completely strong and fit, but I've never felt so good and confident. Very excited to get started with 30DS -- good luck to you all!

Hey,
I did level 1 yesterday thinking it would be kind of easy... it wasn't. So now i'm pissed off at myself and want to beat the damn program into the ground! So starting today i'll be on it. Im aiming for the 10 days each level routine with no rest days, it's only 30mins so im sure i could spare that each day. I am also using going to use my 5kg weights, which yesterday was far too much, so today even if i dont do as many 'reps' as the guides at the start i hope to be by the tenth day!

Anyway i'll log in here daily but if any of you want to be friends hit me an invite

This is my first Group Challenge. I am psyched! I got the DVD last week and have done it once. Then I reverted to my old DVD work out as this one scared me a bit. I hope you all can help me along the way. Hello! I'll start by introducing myself.

I'm OpalEli and I have been exercising and watching my diet for 5 weeks now. But I haven't been able to lose even 5 lbs. I do think I am gaining muscle so am hoping the measurements and clothes checks will help.

Height: 5'5
Eating 1200 calories
Starting 30DS today, June 4.

STARTING stats:
160lbs
Size L
Pants size 12
Neck 14in
Waist 36.5in
Hips 41in

Can't wait to start it up!

Hey guys! I'm Heather. I'm 22 years old. I'm an Air Force wife living in VA. Since I have lived here I have gained about 20 lbs and I'm now over 200. That was the last straw for me, so here I am! I started my first day of 30DS this afternoon, and I will be supplementing it with couch to 5k for added cardio and hopefully more weight loss. I've also started eating a clean diet and lower calorie intake than usual. I'm excited to see so many people motivated to do the same workouts as me! This is definitely going to help get me up in the morning.
Starting weight: 203 lbs.

I would love to post my measurements but I can't find my measuring tape anywhere. Disappointed because I know that's where the difference will be. Oh well. Definitely taking before pictures!

Happy shredding everyone!

I'm starting the 30 day shred. Was doing it before but I busted my ankle and put on a pile of weight. I'll only be doing it every second day. Hopefully i'll lose a bit of weight but what I really want to do is lose inches. Good Luck to everyone!

Hi there! for years i have always hated my jelly belly and after baby number two it just got worse, and used the excuse that he was a big baby ( 10lbs 8oz) to comfort myself. No more of that - have changed my eating habits and given myself reasonable goals ie i dont aim for a 6 pack but a more svelte stomach and i want to be able to wear form fitting clothes i am on day 9 and cant wait to take pictures to compare. good luck to everyone else and keep it up we can do this!!!
