    *newbie alert*
    I'm in...excuse my ignorance...How will this work? (outside of taking pictures and measurements) will we check in on this thread daily? Friend each other? or post results at the end of the 30 days? As you can see this is my first time:smile:

    Hey yay newbie! Welcome! On the threads I usually just check in when I have a hard day or and awesome day. You are more than welcome to add me as a friend especially if you are good at support! I need all of it that I can get! :) Good luck tomorrow!

    Hi folks,

    Count me in - I'm starting the shred tomorrow too. I'm already doing 30 minutes of cardio twice a week with a fitness program, but I'm adding this to speed up the results. Look forward to seeing everyone's progress

    I've done it and continue to do it, as well as, Boost Metabolism. They are 'kick butt' workouts. I believe they are a version of P90X (haha). I sculpted my shoulders and abs through this program. I've just joined MFP because I gained 15 lbs of the 60 I lost since last summer. So, I'm trying to get motivated again to exercise regularly. But, maybe I'll post a picture to show the before and after of last summer.

    Oh yeah, if you don't have the DVD, try Exercise TV on Demand. It's free and on 24/7.

    I'm in! I actually just finished L1 D3. But I would love the accountability to stick to this. I've been doing alot of cardio, but not enough strength training, so I feel this is just what I need

    Day 1...check. It was such a good workout, but I followed Anita more than Natalie this time just so I don't burn myself out. I highly recommend eating a HIGH protein meal after todays workout just to aid in your muscle recovery. I drank a protein shake and I will probably still be a bit sore. Good luck everyone!!! :)

    Day 1 done! (although technically, Day 36, but who's counting? :wink: ) Went heavier on the weights this round. I'm doing this with a bunch of Diabetics on another board, so I have to show them we can do this!

    ROCK ON!!! :tongue:

    Hi!

    I'm definitely starting this today! I haven't been able to fit into my jeans for a year now. It's time I stopped doing things half-hearted and giving up half way through. I WILL see these thirty days through.
    I find that I eat really really healthily and go to the gym loads for up to 6 weeks and the scales just don't shift at all!!! I know that its probably muscle building up - but it just does something to me psychologically and then I give up. So I'm going to take before and after pictures to try and keep me motivated.
    I've heard it's tough - but hopefully I'll be able to do the whole session - I'll let you know how I get on later today.

    You know, I've had WEEKS where the scale hasn't budged one iota, BUT because I took my measurements, I knew there were changes because I was losing inches and my clothes were getting looser. Take your measurements so that even if the scale doesn't budge, you will still know there are changes happening!

    Started round 2 of the 30DS today and I'm feeling great. I forgot how much I like L1! I used hand weights on moves that are slightly easier now. It felt great.

    I definitely echo what others have said about taking measurements and photos. It took several weeks before my weight started to budge, so you need to stay motivate. I love looking at my before and after pics. Can't wait to see some in 4 weeks!
