  • Marie, I could have written your post WORD FOR WORD! All of our numbers are exactly the same. I too am trying desperately to lose these last 10lbs. I know my problem is my diet. I have an act of eating my way out of every fitness regimen. I'm attempting insanity again. I've tried in the past put I get lazy and lose…
  • 5'2" and 128lbs. I'd love to get down to 110lbs.
  • Me too! I'm a SAHM and would also like to lose 25lbs. My boys are 4 & 2. I did lose all and then some of my baby weight but as soon as I stopped nursing (and working) it ALL came back. I have no friends on MFP other than my two sisters and would love to share this experience with other mommas. Feel free to add me.
  • I can't seem to find the whole 30 day shred on YouTube. All I can find is the first level. Have I lost my mind or is there really just level one on there?
  • Hi ladies. Mind if I join in. I just finished day 1 of level two. I finished the 30DS back in June. I was very pleased with the results but then I completely binged the whole summer. I started feeling very gross and sloth like so I started 30DS again. The first 10 days I didn't follow any diet. (well I Limited myself to…
  • I found level 3 to be so hard. I hate all the jumping, but I'm so close to the end I'm going to keep on keeping on.
  • Terrible right shoulder pain here. I couldn't even lift my fork, or water glass. It actually hurt anytime I lifted my arm at all. I had to take four consecutive days off before I felt like I could attempt to continue.
  • I'm discouraged. I am 2/3 of the way done with 30DS and I see absolutely no difference, and I weigh 3lbs more. I did take 4days in a row off because I had really hurt my shoulder bad but then got right back to it. I just thought I'd See "some" change by now :( I am determined to stick out all 30 workouts. Hope change is on…

  • I did all of level 1 in bare feet but day one of level 2 literally "shredded" my feet! Seriously my toes were bleeding and I was so involved in the worked that I didn't notice until the end. I took the following day off because of my toes and I had also hurt my shoulder. So from then on I've worn sneakers!
  • Confession: I ate crap all day. Serious JUNK food ALL day long. Fruit loops, fritos, cookies, nutella. Ugh, now I feel terrible (mentally & physically) On a positive note I'm half way done with the 30 DS!!! I did day 5 level 2 today. Also I went grocery shopping and the fridge is packed full of healthy food. Yea! Tomorrow…

  • My son has had issues before and one of two things always works for him. 1) mix apple & prune juice or buy it premixed in the baby section. I heat it and have him drink it very warm. Or 2) eat canned apricots followed by a big glass of warm water. Good luck. I hope you feel better soon.
  • I wish I could help. I cooked quinoa once and got violently ill. It was so horrible. I assume I'm allergic to it which sucks since it's such a nutrious food :(
    in quinoa, HALP! Comment by elm7f May 2013
  • Haha! I'm soft, squishy and broke! I seriously thought about wearing my 17 mo old in our ergo carrier in place of weights! He is 32lbs, that's heavy enough for now :)
  • L2D2 done!

  • Thanks. I'll definitely try icing it. As the day has gone on it feels much better. I was going to do L2D2 tonight but my husband talked me out of it. I have never been one to exercise. I wish I had a trainer to make sure I'm doing things right. I'm not even sure how I hurt it. Push-ups maybe??? Anyway, thanks for the…

  • :( I did day one of level two yesterday and some how hurt my shoulder. I took the day off. It's the first "day off" I've taken. I plan to be back at it in the morning.

  • I'm SOLD! How do I start? Who do I call? Where to begin?!?!
  • Tomorrow is my last day of level one. I'm excited to move on!

  • I don't have extra money for a HR monitor at this time. Heck..I only own one sports bra and it needed to be washed this morning so I did without! But I am curious how many calories yours says you burnt. I logged under circuit training for 25 min. I think MFP gave me like 125 calories. I'd love to invest in a monitor one…
  • "Hey Buddies" ugh.... I hate to hear Jillian say "Buddy". However I am loving 30 DS. I did day 8 of level one today and feel like I'm doing much better than the first few days. I still can't do all regular push-ups but that's the only one I have to modify half way through. I think this work out is the perfect balance of…
  • Hi! I'm new to MFP community, actually this is my first time on any Internet forum so I'm not real sure how it all works. I started 30 day shred last week. I've got 3 days left of level 1 and I'm excited I've lost 3 lbs! I'd love to join your group. I thought my two older sisters were going to shred with me but they have…
  • I'm impressed! Coke is my guilty pleasure. I don't keep it in the house but still find a way to consume about 5cans/week. I've been thinking for a while about kicking it all together but it's sooo HARD. Maybe I should wean to those little baby cans.
  • Thanks for sharing! I can totally see some change. I'm on day 5 of level 1. I hope I stick it out till the end, I always lose motivation when I don't see instant results. Good luck to you and thanks again for sharing.
