30 Day Shred Challenge (4/16/12-5/16/12)

Hey Guys!

I was wondering if there is anyone who is willing to do the Jillian Michaels 30 day challenge with me. I want to start this Monday 4/16/12 and it will go all the way up to 5/16/12. I need people who are willing and motivated to stick by this. This is the first time I do this and I am motivated because I want to loose weight but I've been stuck. If you're on the same wagon as me or want a change in yourself start with me. The DVD is sold in places like Target, Walmart, Best Buy and in Amazon.com for about $7-12. If you got prime you get free 2 day shipping!

Please measure yourself on or before Day 1 (4/16/12) : Bust (widest part), Waist (narrow part), Hips (Widest part), measure each thigh. Don't forget to weight in too.
**If you want, take and post a before picture but don't feel obligated to (if you feel shy). But you must do it at the end of the 30 days** (Trust me you want to see a before and after picture of yourself!

Don't forget to have a balance diet according to your body. If you want to know how much you should eat check freedieting.com

Good Luck and let's support each other!!!

    Aww great!! I found about this last night and immediately did my research and bought the DVD. I don't want to waste anymore time. I work out but I've been on a plateau where my body doesn't want to go lower than 134lbs. I'm determined to do this!

    How its been so far??

    Great! As long as you measure yourself and weight in you should be good to go. I don't want to hold you back. If you want to start tomorrow go ahead! I can't wait to start! Still waiting on the DVD. :)
  • I am on board!! I have done it 3 times but nothing consistant! I could use the motivation too!

    I started 30 day shred yesterday and it is kicking my butt! I would love to join the group as having a support group would make it so much easier. Good luck everyone. I will post measurements later.
  • Is anyone having knee problems doing the shred? My knees are killing me.

    Guys you have not idea how much great joy it brings me to have people join me! Who's willing to start this Monday for 30 Days? If you started please continue! Those who havent, buy the DVD if you don't have it yet. You could even stream it online via Amazon.com for $4.99.

    I've been stuck in the 130s and I'm getting sick and tired of seeing the same number every time I weight-in especially when you know that you worked your butt off that week.

    Maybe get a knee brace to hold your knees in place while working out! if it gets out of hand you should stop! or go back to level 1 and stick to that.

    I will be on day 9 tomorrow. I took today off. My knees have been bothering me too. I have before pics and I check measurements every Sunday. Down about 2 pound but 4.5 inches so far.

    Good luck!

    Hey! I just finished day 5, but am hoping to do a '60 day shred' (as of now I'm having to do mostly the 'modified' moves because I'm such a wimp). I would love to join you guys!
  • Yeah! i just started day 1 this morning!

    I'm currently the highest bidder on ebay for the DVD right now. The auction ends tomorrow so I don't know when I'd actually get it (if I win) but I plan to start it right away. If I lose the auction, I'll just go buy it at Target or something and then I'll be able to start Monday!

    I am totally in for the challenge! I'm going to be picking up my DVD this weekend!
  • Hi, I have been doing 30 day shred on and off for a while but am determined to start a fresh and do it properly this time!
    I am starting again tonight so will take my measurements and photograph. Its great to have this group, I lose motivation so easily so you will have to keep kicking me up the backside!!

    I love the Shred. I have no excuse not to work out after work with it. 20 minutes is nothing. I can do that while dinner is cooking!
    Just out of interest, how does everyone log it on here? I've not got the extra cash for an HRM at the moment, so I can't track it accurately, but I'd like to log it as best I can until I can get one.
