Hi! Just joined this group today!

Hi! My name is Rhio, (yes, like the DuranDuran song. Just spelled differently. ;) ) I'm 25. I was brought here after doing a search today for a 30 Day Shred support group. I see that it was started on the 8th, but better late than never, right?

I am trying to get back on the wagon again. I was doing the best I have ever done in my life sticking to a workout routine (Brazil Butt Lift and some other workouts I added) and eating healthy. It lasted almost 7 weeks- that is a big accomplishment for me!

However, after a few weekends in a row of being out of town visiting family, I have been WAAAY off track. I haven't gained much, but I am definitely getting soft and clothes are getting a little snug. :P

SOOO, I definitely need this support group! Today will be day 1 of the 30 Day Shred for me! I have done 17 of the 30 days back in November/December last year. It would be nice if I can actually COMPLETE a program! It's ridiculous...Anyone else have this problem?

    Welcome! I also started the 30 Day Shred before and only got to Level 1, Day 10, and then I got busy and quit. I started again this past Sunday, and hopefully I can finish since I have already done Ripped in 30. It is great to have a support group.

    It is so hard to stick with any program. Easy to make any excuse to get out of it, that is why we are here in this group too!!! The support and encouragement has been overwhelming! This is a wonderful group. Add me as a friend if you would like another cheerleader :)

    Welcome welcome

    I totally relate. I am a teacher and of course on summer holiday !!! Yeah !!! My husband has been taking some classes for his job. That requires some out of town stays and since the children are out of school we have been tagging along extending the trips by a few days and enjoying mini vacations all summer. We have two more of the next few weeks then back to the classroom. Matter of fact we leave again this Saturday for New Orleans. I started 30D before and with those trips never finished. I did keep on exercising just didn't finish shred. I am more determined this time around and with this support group believe I will make it to the end.

    We are going on vacation next week for a week and half. I am planning on bringing the DVD with me and doing it on vacation. Is that an option for you. We are staying in a house so I can go to one of the room and run the DVD on my laptop. It is harder when you are at a hotel. But maybe your husband can take the kids to the pool while you squeeze your workout in? Just a thought!!
