Awesome job, girl! So proud of you! :-)

Hahahahah love it!

One more thing that is useful in addition to what has already been mentioned....for the rash/skin symptoms is taking a bath with epsom salt. It helps me out (I break out on my abdomen).

Hi. I was diagnosed with lupus in October of 2010, so I understand how you want to keep your flare ups in remission- believe me. There is a wonderful book that you might want to pick up that I have read called "The Lupus Recovery Diet" by Jill Harrington that talks a lot about autoimmune disease and diet approaches that…

I have it and absolutely LOVE it! I highly recommend it to my friends and the friends that have played around with it ended up buying the same model for themselves. Super easy to figure out and big time has helped my workouts and weight loss :-)

You should be SUPER proud of yourself for taking the initiative to get into shape. I am a cardiac nurse and let me tell you, so many people- even after bypass surgery- don't take the steps that you are taking. There actually is a study that was put out by the Mayo Clinic that I saw on CNN today that talks about improving…

Perfect timing! I just finished up the 5 day inferno and plan to start tomorrow, too!

Hey girl- I have had my share of health issues, too, and have had periods where it has kept me from being able to work out much. I completely understand how frustrating it gets. I'm not sure exactly what you are sick with... but I am a nurse and work with patients that have issues like this a lot. If you want, send me a…

I pushed myself through the Shred 10 days through each level, but I did have the same issue with getting bored. I just started up Turbofire (day 3) and find it so much more fun since you don't repeat the same thing every day. It is expensive, but you get your money's worth. Too soon to know of any results yet, but I'm…

I can totally understand your frustration. Do you think maybe you can get referred to a pain clinic for pain management? My guess is that is probably your best bet as far as having somebody that is understanding as far as what your needs are and giving you the appropriate prescription. A lot of other doctors tend to get…

You are fine with what you are drinking. This poster is misinformedI work in medicine. Closely with patients that have issues with their vagus nerves. Drinking freezing water is fine. Unless you are submerging yourself into ice water for extended periods of time to the point that your entire body temperature is dropping,…

Feel free to add me. I'm 28 and a RN working 12 hour shifts, so I totally understand where you are coming from. I weigh 159, looking to get down to the 130-135 range :-)

This topic just gives me a headache. I work in healthcare. I have seen many people go on it. I have seen many people think they are seeing a miracle. I have seen many people then get sick and lose their hair, have skin issues, end up needing surgery, etc. due to HCG. I agree that any doctor that tells a patient it is okay…

Umm...all of the above! You have to have variety...otherwise where is the fun/spontaneity?

These stories are too cute! Congrats to all of you who found your S.O's in such fun ways! And good luck with your meeting! If nothing else- it sounds like you two have a great friendship that will continue on! Hopefully things work out for you two and we will hear some updates!

"Peach" is a nickname friends gave me back in HS. I am usually a cheerful person and love all things peach flavored (peaches, ice cream, etc. etc.), so one day somebody called me Peach and it just kind of stuck. Funny enough somebody who didn't know this called me the same thing freshmen year of college and I earned the…

My absolute favorite is Udi's Millet Chia bread. Rudi's bread is okay, too (that's what I buy when Udi's is sold out at the local gluten free market).

^^^also great points :-)

Okay....honestly what girl can honestly say they don't drool over a guy that is cut? That being said, if he is confident and you are attracted to him, it's all good :-) As long as he takes decent care of himself, it's all gravy, baby!

I know that there are some specialists that can help work with you on elimination diets to. I actually was referred to one that works at a local vitamin shop, believe it or not! I ended up not going to them because we found a migraine medication that works for me. But I have kept the information in mind. I have even heard…

I did the same thing. Hang in there. I honestly didn't feel like I had any difference either. I was SO frustrated and didn't feel clothes were fitting all that differently. My guess is you are wrong. I took a before and after picture and my goodness was I wrong. It took that picture for me to realize it. My guess is that…

Once you get used to the routine, if you are like me, you will want to drown out Jillian's voice as much as you can, so have your own music ready! :-) I would eat some fruit before you work out for some sugar and have some water to sip at, too. Push yourself to work up to harder modifications when you can and keep moving…

Okay what about strength and endurance. Have you noticed a difference as far as those go? My guess is that those have gotten much better as you went on with the 30DS. :-)

Okay I have to agree with the girls wearing Uggs at the gym...it isn't just on treadmills here. I actually saw a girl lifting the other day wearing them. Why the hell would somebody opt to wear them to the gym? I don't get it.

This. I also don't let myself skip a day. When I start trying to talk myself out of a day, I remind myself that if I do it, it'll make it that much easier to talk myself out of it the next day, and the next. I don't let myself make excuses. It pays off.
