Thanks everyone!! I really do feel awesome about myself lately which is HUGE for me, because confidence is something I don't have much of. Oh and the pants I have on are the ones I wore when my hubby proposed to me 5 years ago!!

There is a big difference, congrats!! You are doing great!! But, I do understand where you are coming from. I feel like there is a big difference in the way that I look after losing 32 pounds, but very rarely do I have anyone say anything. It is nice to hear, which is why I make a big deal when someone else noticeably…

Down to 206.4----5.4 to go until Halloween!

Down 31.6----18.5 to go until Christmas!!

Down to 207.4--6.4 to go until Halloween!

Down 30.6--19.4 to go until Christmas!

Down 29.6 pounds, 20.4 to go until Christmas!!

You sound like me these past couple days, but I got back into it with no pounds gained. I'm ready to keep going! Just look at pics of you before you lost 29 pounds, that made me realize how well I was really doing and to keep going!! You can do it! I know it's hard and emotionally I have been a bit of a wreck lately. But,…

Hi all! I am down to 209! Eight more pounds to go to Halloween!

What day are you on, 3? I was horribly sore day 2 and 3 and then it started to ease up a bit. Now, other muscles ache. Maybe because I am going deeper into the exercises (on some)? Not sure. I was pretty lazy with it today, though. Maybe my muscles should be worse,

Did day 5 today, but I was pretty lazy with it :( I am having an off day today with everything... But, at least I did it, right?

Down 28.8 pounds. 21.2 to go!

My calves are still burning from last nights jump rope...

Day 4 done, some things were a lot harder on Day 1 than they are now. Some things are still pretty hard, but soreness is easing up and I think I am getting stronger!

I am down 1.8 pounds. 13.2 to go until Thanksgiving!

I do every morning and for me it is not a problem. It is motivation either way for me. If I see a loss, I want to keep going. If I don't, I want to try harder. I know people say don't weigh yourself everyday, but it works for me!!

Just finished Day 3. I think it is still as hard as day one and I am very sore, but I actually hung in there a little better today. I see some progress. :flowerforyou:

It may cost the restaurants more to do the research, but they may get more business, too. I know I would eat out a lot more if I knew exactly what I am putting into my body. You can guess the main ingredients, but may not realize or think about some of the other ingredients they use. So, yes, I vote YES!

1. To finish 30 Day Shred. 2. Go to Zumba every Tuesday. 3. Lose at least 5 pounds. Good luck everyone!

Oh I know!! The stairs are the worst, especially walking down them! AND, I have to do this 100 times a day while carrying a 26 pound toddler each way. I can't wait until my muscles get stronger!!

I'm not giving up, but OUCH!! I can't believe I am this sore-lol! Seriously, I need you all to keep up on me. If you don't hear from me for awhile-get on me. I never finish anything like this!

Second day-I am wondering if anyone else is struggling like I am. I have to take little breaks during the strength. It kills me. Am I out of my league here??

Here's my before at 211.4. I hope I have a much nicer after pic when we are finished!

I'm in too!! I would love to lose 10 pounds by then! I just started the 30 day shred (ouch!) I need motivating threads like this to keep me going! Starting weight 238 Current weight 211.5 Halloween goal 201!!

Congrats! When I got pregnant and was responsible for my baby's health was the only time that I cared what I put into my body. I ate the healthiest I ever ate before when I was pregnant and only gained 28 pounds. Also, after the baby is here, I recommend breastfeeding (of course along with eating right and exercise.) I…

Just did my first workout! YIKES!! I am so out of shape. It was a great workout though! I hope I keep up with it! Keep tabs on me guys! Whew!!!

I plan on starting today. I am going to take a before and after pic. We should post them here along with our results when we are finished. Good luck, I'm nervous!!

Can I join if I want to lose 15 by Thanksgiving?? I already lost 27 and would LOVE to be down 40+ by Thanksgiving. I want to make my goal a little lower because I am sure I will plateau at some point. Also, my 10 year reunion is the weekend of Thanksgiving. Talk about motivation! Good luck to all!

I agree with both! It was harder to convince myself to get started. I found these first 27 pounds to be very easy. I don't think I am sacrificing that much. Now, we'll see how the rest comes off!

Wow!! I need to take pointers on how to not let other people bother me so much. You do have a great attitude! You could have came out swinging (probably what I would have done.) Very impressive and maybe I should try that approach sometimes!:drinker:
