Today's workout was amazing! I was drenched by the end. I was able to handle more repetitions of certain moves and I am WORN out! 25 days to go! :drinker:

Woohooooo! I took day four off because I was EXHAUSTED! Between this and school, I am a tired turkey! :laugh: I might do it again later if I feel up to it but this time felt amazing! I was really able to do a few more of the ab exercises and modified push-ups! Way to go guys! 25 days to go! :noway: :bigsmile:

Jillian Michaels' DVD's are amazing for building stamina. My strength is tenfold since beginning her DVD's; I prepared my body for a good, long Yosemite hike with those! :flowerforyou: It will help you get where you need to be for Insaity or P90x, in time.

He's a loser that doesn't see the real you. Drop him! My boyfriend loves me at the weight I am NOW and the only thing he wants for both of us is BETTER HEALTH! I can't wait to knock him out with my new body! :happy: :laugh:

You're looking so good! Keep it up!

I just did day TWO because of a migraine I had yesterday that wouldn't go away! :huh: Doubling up today! I'll be doing my "day three" workout in about ten minutes. :bigsmile: Way to go everyone! :flowerforyou:

I just did my day TWO workout (I had a migraine from the heat all night last night and gave up). Doing a second round after my protein shake! :bigsmile: I'm feeling good today! My ankles feel weak so I'm focusing hard on the upper body moves and keeping my feet flatter during lower body exercises. Way to go everyone!

I go every day. It gives the best results (for my preference)! :flowerforyou:

I drink EAS Soy Protein from Wal-Mart. :blushing: I've tried many but it is delicious! I usually drink it with soy milk. 19g Carbs, 20g Protein, 170 calories, 1.5g Fat, 17g Sugar for one scoop. A little high in sugar but I absolutely love the texture. :drinker: Edit: I should add, it's only $9.88 for each container and the…

You go girl! We all have our moments of "OMG NO MORE PLEASE!" and exhaustion. :bigsmile: What is important is that you got right back up and kept at it! I'm 192lbs and on average I burn 284 calories doing level one. A lot of people log it under circuit training; I have a Heart Rate Monitor. :flowerforyou:

L1D1 complete! I'm still getting over my little cold because I had to stop twice because of an asthma flair-up. :huh: All is well and I feel great. :bigsmile: I burnt 307 calories (I honestly felt like I was a little lax during some of the Shred, even though I almost always do the advanced moves, so I did thirty extra…

L1D1 complete! I think I'm still getting over my little cold because I had to stop twice because of asthma flair-ups. :huh: All is well though and I feel fantastic! :bigsmile: I burnt 307 calories (I honestly felt like I was a little lax during some of the Shred, even though I almost always do the advanced moves, so I did…

This brought me to tears! What a wonderful story and beautiful inspiration! Thank you for sharing. :sad: :flowerforyou:

Congratulations! That is a beautiful difference. :bigsmile: It just goes to show how important it is!

I'm definitely in! I absolutely love my girly drinks, beer and wine! Not to mention the obscene amount of calories I spend on caffeinated drinks. :laugh: I should add I am doing the 30 Day Shred and C25k program on top of eliminating these drinks! Week 1 - October 1: 192.8 Week 2 - October 8: Week 3 - October 15: Week 4 -…

I'm doing 30DS and attempting the C25k concurrently! :bigsmile: I have found that previously, I was only excruciatingly sore from the Shred the first few days of each level, so I figure I can do my 3 days of the C25k on my stronger days. :flowerforyou:

Hello everyone! :flowerforyou: SW: 197.8lbs CW: 192.lbs GW: 145lbs R Bicep: 14.5in L Bicep: 15in Chest: 40.4in Waist: 35.5in Stomach: 41.5in Hips: 44.3in R Thigh: 27in L Thigh: 26.5in R Calf: 16.8in L Calf: 17in Boy, oh boy am I uneven. :huh: :blushing:

Hello everyone! I personally have begun using 5lb weights (I used none or 2lb weights the first time I tried 30DS). :bigsmile: I need to trim down my pudgy arms and I love the burn the day after. I even tweak Jillian's arm moves a bit to target additional arm muscles.

I've partially done 30DS before with amazing results and I have a HRM. In the first week or so, I burnt an average of 284 calories (I created my own exercise, Jillian Michaels' 30 Day Shred, and changed the calorie amount every time I logged it) on level one and around 300-400 (when going at it HARDCORE with actual…

Hi everyone! :bigsmile: I can't wait to take on this October 30DS challenge with all of you! I am a twenty-two year old college student. I am busy, busy, busy but I always make time for a little MyFitnessPal logging & chatting! :flowerforyou: I have a boyfriend of six and a half years and two adorable cats, Milo and Jinx.…

Agreed, HRM's with no chest strap are useless. I have the Polar FT40 and I am in love with it. I absolutely feel that it is accurate and even so, I try not to eat my exercise calories back unless I'm doing so with nutritionally sound items. :bigsmile:

I will be joining you! :bigsmile: October - a new month and a new start! I've done it sporadically all week (as I caught a cold) but I'm ready to get into gear! Count me in. :drinker:

Congratulations! Pharmacies and Wal-Mart's almost ALWAYS have one and are usually very accurate! Keep it up. :bigsmile:

I'd love to! :bigsmile: I will gladly send you a request right after I hit "reply"! What a wonderful feat you've accomplished. I've heard that lifting can help (and I would love to do it anyways! Big muscles :laugh:). My family has a dramatically strong line of diabetes and my doctor told me a year ago that if I don't lose…

The good news is, I never had the tight firm body of a 16 year old (I was actually heavier than I am now) so I luckily won't have such a rough comparison. :laugh: :wink: Thank you, you're right .. sometimes I forget that my health is above all else in this process. I'd love to reduce my asthma and have more stamina. I will…

Silly me, I totally missed a post of this same topic below. :embarassed: :laugh: I looked but went right past it! I apologize, my fellow Fitness Pals! Count this just as a little rant if you'd like. :smile: Maybe I can take some of the experiences shared off of the other topic.

Mine says 150lbs. :noway: I'm actually 185lbs right now. :embarassed: I hadn't weighed myself in school and I got my license when I was seventeen - so in my mind, I figured, eh, same weight as when I was fourteen. Wrong! I haven't bothered to change it but it's such a lie.

This.

I have a WW scale and it works wonders for me. It definitely can vary but if I get on it three times in a row in the same time frame, it gives me a consistent number. Good luck! :bigsmile:

Honestly, I do it once a month. (: I weigh myself weekly and on the 5th of every month (I began my journey on the 5th of May, so it's been the 5th ever since) I calculate my body fat %, my BMI (a lot of people say not to depend on it but I track it anyways) and I take all of my measurements. :flowerforyou:
