    I just finished 30 day shred, I really liked it. Although it was challenging, it was easy to follow.

    Yes, I highly recommend the 30 Day Shred...i'm a busy mom and full-time business manager and pt promotor for Body By Vi...in the past 1.5 weeks on level 2 i've lost 3 inches each from my bust and waist and 1 inch from my hips......Good Luck and it's only 20 minutes each day so not much to take away from you schedule :D

    So you did that with just the shred or body by vi too?
    Is there somewhere I can learn about this body by vi stuff? Been hearing tons about it recently but not enough to form an opinion

    I was thinking about starting the shred too

    i do p90x and count my calories and have had amazing results, but i can see how it could be challenging for someone who might not have 1+ hours in their day to sit down and do a fitness video. I have never done JM's videos but know a few people who are doing them and they really like them, i think any change in your regular routine + making healthy food choices is a big step for anyone. As long as you try thats all that counts!

    Hey Karaparry, yes it's been a combination of the Body by Vi Shake and working out for sure.....i lost 22lbs and over 15 inches in 3 months by taking the shake two times a day plus healthy snacks and dinner but MFP has been great for counting my calories and maintenance :D you can visit my website http://brendawallace1.myvi.net/profile for more information and to order if interested....

    The Body by Vi Shake is delicious and there's so much variety of different shakes to make....two scoops of the shake mix is only 90 calories and full of awesome nutrition and protein

    I too work full time on 3rd shift and am married with 3 children-ages 1, 3, and 10. I squeeze in an hour every evening to do p90x and have gotten amazing results. I also did 30 day shred a year ago after having my last baby and had great results along with clean eating. Do what u can-it will all work in the long run for sure

    You need to get an HRM.
