I am starting Insanity tomorrow! I'll add you as a buddy!

For m y evening snack, I usually have homemade guacamole and something crispy to dip it in. Right now, I've really been diggin' Stacy's Pita Crisps.

I like this idea!

I eat potatoes. Just not a lot. :)

Hey! I'm 5ft 3 and fluctuate between 138-140 right now. Ugh. My goal is 125, but BOY would I love to get to 115. :) I'll add you!

I wish I had one of those cool phones JUST so I could try this out. :)

Yup. I was using the strap. Still can't figure it out. This is such a pain in my *kitten*.

What do you mean it's strapless? Meaning, it doesn't come with a chest strap? Because it does. Or do you mean some other strap?

I love the feeling of being able to fit into something you couldn't quite get into once upon a time. Good job! :)

The 30 Day Shred is a Jillian Michaels workout DVD. I've always seen it at Walmart. I think a lot of people on here order it off of Amazon to get it cheaper. This is it:…

I did it for the full 30 days. 10 days for each level straight. No rest days in between. After the first few days, I honestly didn't really feel I needed a rest day since the soreness went away just after that. And I had to keep telling myself, "It's only 20 minutes. It's only 20 minutes." :P And no.. no other forms of any…

That's what kept me going this time as well! Seeing the results everyone was getting. The numbers were making me a bit sad but when I put the photos side by side today.. phew! I stopped caring about numbers after that. :)

I'm 5 ft 2 1/2.. so you're right! We're just about the same. :)

I'm doing 30DS right now. I just finished Day 23 today. I'm not doing any other exercising other than that, and I've already lost 7 pounds. No idea on the inches yet since I'll measure when I'm completely done, but I do see a change in my body - especially my belly! :) I do it every day without any rest days. Have fun!

Good job! I can relate 100%. I think I had started 30DS about 4 times before I became serious about it. Each time I started, I got a bit further from the last time. I just completed Day 19! Like you said, couldn't have done it without MFP. I came to the realization that I needed more than just counting calories on my own.…

Nice! Look at those arms!

Agree agree. I have always done this without even thinking about it. It just comes natural to me! :)

I was drinking about 6 cups a day. My problem, though, was using so much creamer. You know those huge bottles of International Delight creamers? Yeah... I could go through one of those in two days. I was drinking so many creamer calories that I had to just give it up all together. I don't drink coffee black. *gag*. And I…

This was also my plan. :)

Wow. I must be behind on this. I just saw the commercial for these the other day. I grabbed a box during my shopping and holy cow.. love them!

Wow! What a change! Good job!

I'm starting Level 2 today. I'm so nervous! :)

I wish I had known about this!

I'm game! I'll start sometime this weekend.. and friending you. :)

I just finished Day 8, Level 1. This is the furthest I've gotten so far. I must finish this damn thing in 30 days! :) Since I've only ever experienced Level 1, the hardest move for me was the side lunge move with the lateral arm raises. Oh.. my... god. I am now at the point where it's much easier, but the buuuuurn in the…

So smooth. Awesome job. :)

You girls are hilarious. :)

I always wondered what Natalie was doing there. I figured she was in a different rhythm than Anita, so when the camera went to Anita, she thought, "Gotta change my rhythm quick!" I usually watch Natalie and I noticed at this part, I have to look at Anita, but she's in a different position than Natalie was in, so I need to…

That's really awesome. :) It's great to see the drastic change and what I can look forward to. :) Good job on your success! I can't wait to hit the 120s, either. I started at your same weight a week ago, and I'm back in the 140s, so that's a mini goal hit. :)

Hey everyone! It's nice to see a group full of people that know and understand my life! :) My name is Dana and I'm the mom of two awesome little girls (almost 5 and almost 2). My life circles around work and my girls with barely enough time to do much else. My divorce just became final a week or so ago, so now it's time…
