    Monday through Saturday, Sunday off and weigh?

    This sounds like a good idea, my work schedule varies LOTS and I will be out of town next Saturday and Sunday (so I will replace my Saturday workout by working out Sunday when I get home.) Having a group-wide day off allows me to "make up" a day if need be.

    I plan on starting today. (In about 5 minutes, whenever I shut my laptop, actually.)

    Starting out:

    Age: 23
    Highest weight May 11th, 2011: 226lbs
    Current weight October 1st, 2011: 189.2lbs
    Height: 5'9

    Right upper arm (widest portion with arms held out away from body): 14.5in
    Left upper arm (same method as right arm): 14in
    Bust (measured over my sports bra, widest portion): 40in
    Waist (around my belly button): 36in
    Hips (around the widest area of my lower abdomen):41in
    Butt (yeah, I measured how wide around I am at the widest portion of my butt. I wanted to know.): 42.5in
    Right thigh (widest portion of upper thigh while standing with legs shoulder width apart): 24in
    Left thigh (same method as right): 24.5in



    I've never actually taken my measurements before today.
    So I measured everything I could think off.
    I'm just procrastinating at this point, so it's time to get off the computer and get to work!



    Edit: So freaking sweaty and exhausted right now. But I made it all the way through the first workout!

    One thing I learned after being SO FREAKING SORE after day 1... take a COLD shower right after shredding. My muscles thanked me.

    I would like to join. I had actually bought the DVD 2 weeks ago. I did 6 days and then caught a cold so I have not been back to it yet. I had planned on starting again today but I have to get some homework out of the way first. So, starting on Monday and going through Saturday with a day off (if needed) sounds good to me. I would like to friend everyone who is joining this group so that I can be motivated to stick with it through the 30 days (or extra if warranted).

    I have created a spreadsheet for the challenge, I will update it on the 10th, 20th and final results on the 30th!.... I found this as an easy way for us to keep track of our progress. I also wanted everyone to take their starting measurements so you can calculate on your own how many inches you are losing total and I would update it on the sheet (I did this because I've heard numerous people talk about how many inches they lost with 30DS vs. pounds.)

    Our next weigh in day is MONDAY, OCTOBER 10th.... I would like for everyone to weigh themselves again and give me their *NEW* weight and measure themselves and give TOTAL inches lost VERSUS putting up all your measurments again.

    KEEP UP THE HARD WORK AND CONTINUE TO INSPIRE AND BE INSPIRED!!!!

    Awesome spreadsheet. Do you want us to just message you versus putting it in the thread or doesn't it matter?

    Level 2 starts on the 11th. Some people are modifying their days a little. But I plan to stick to how its instructed to be.
