    So what time do you guys work out? I really would love to work out in the mornings, but I have ZERO energy then!

    I am super excited for a Monday as well!!

    *Brooke- I am a night work out fan, but then I can't sleep! I have been doing a boot camp at 5:30AM (3x a week) for a month now and know once I start working out I am fine and I feel great the rest of the day--- But getting up so EARLY! YUCK! My last day of boot camp is Friday... I am going to force myself to get in the habit of waking up early next week and doing 30DS every morning now... I may need some extra motivation next week for that! LOL! But untill then I will be doing my 30DS in the evenings, followed by a hot bath!

    I usually work out in the evening but want to switch to mornings. I used to get up and workout at 5:00 a.m. but can't seem to drag myself out of bed that early anymore. I need to try though because I am also doing C25k and I can only do that in the evenings. So if I want to stick with this challenge, I have to either do both in the evenings or get this one in in the a.m.

    I am a teacher too! Our first day of school was cancelled today :-(. So I had to "talk" myself into popping that dvd in. It is hard work for me, especially since I am larger (240 lbs). I HATE doing it, but feel sooo good when I am done for the day. I have started and stopped this process like 3 time already. I hope I can actually complete it this time!

    I workout in at 5 am before I go to work. HOWEVER, I want to actually wear my hair down this school year (I sweat a lot, and its hard to keep up with my hair), so I am going to have to do some evening workouts. I think I will do 30DS in the AM and C25K in the evenings (just like Puddles :-) ). I actully like to run (well jog) but it will be a challange for me to do it after a long day of work....but it may be what I need. :-) I love the energy that working out in the morning gives me too.

    I would like to join!!! I just finished P90X on Saturday and I am looking to start something new - but not as time consuming. 20 mins a day is perfect for right now. I actually did L1D1 yesterday - but I dont mind starting over. :wink: I started 30DS before P90X, but didnt make it through the whole thing. So, yesterday, i thought after surviving Tony Horton that Jillian would be a walk in the park - boy was I wrong. She still made me want to throw up at the end.

    I am 41 and proud mom of a 3 year old. I never had weight issues growing up, so these extra pounds I started packing on in my 30's were new to me. I think I was in denial of how big I had gotten. But you know how you see that one picture - and you just cant even believe it it you??? I got that in the park last Easter. It was a picture of my daughter but I was kinda in the background and I thought - who is that fat lady in the pink?? Then I realized - OMG - THAT'S ME. A coworker turned me on to MFP and I haven't looked back.

    I will take pics tonight. I would be happy to be part of this group. I am a great starter, but kind of a lousy finisher, so accountability is something I need.

    If it's not too late I would like to join. I was planning on starting 30DS (again) tonight after work. I've attempted it numerous times but I never completed the program. I would love to be able to do it for the full 30 days.

    Day 1 - done!

    I found I couldn't really get off the ground too well when I was skipping, but other than that it wasn't horrible. Already I found myself talking back to Jilly though!

    Welcome to all the people joining!!

    I am going to do my workout tonight. I was going to do it before lunch, but I searched the house for an hour for the remote and could never find it. After my hubby got home from work he found it right off the bat! I couldn't view my video without the remote because I am streaming it through VUDU on the TV. Anyways, I look forward to it tonight!!
