Darn it! MFP apparently doesn't much like external links. I seem to have trouble with this often. Anyhow... if you want to look me up over there, I'm Chandra Tassell. My current profile photo is one of my sis, my mom and me. Feel free to send me a friend request if you like, and then it should be easier to find the page I…

bump!

Are any of you on Facebook too? I ask because I'd had a group over there, called Motivation. Well, yesterday I was informed that the old-style groups are slated to be archived soon and that I'd have to either upgrade to the new group layout (and lose all members either way), or start a page. I chose to start a page, with…

Thank you, and thanks for the MFP friend request also! :)

I can send you the link on Facebook, if it still won't work for you. Let me know how to contact you there, or we can figure out some other way to get the link to work. :)

Hi, it's great that you've taken the first step to solving this issue. Facing up to the issue. You're right, there are so many helpful, encouraging individuals here on MFP. They really help keep me going through tough times! I've never been bulimic, but I can relate to the binge eating. Emotional eating, that's been the…

We are! :)

Congrats!!! What a great start to your day! :)

Hello Susan, I have sent you a friend request here on MFP. I would love to also connect over on Facebook. It sounds like you're off to a good start on your fitness journey. Best wishes!! :)

First, congratulations on your progress so far!! My breaking point -- I'd long been overweight and unhappy about it. What really began to irritate me though, enough to make me decide to actually DO something about it and finally stick with changing my body for the better, was when I sat at work and I felt the rolls of fat…

Thank you! So do I!! :happy:

Hahahaha!!! GREAT idea! :-D

Thank you! I don't have an HRM, so I did some research when I first started. The general consensus is that 'circuit training, general' is pretty close to what those with HRMs burn. So, I've logged it as 20 minutes of circuit training all the way through.

Hi! I look forward to your Facebook invite. Please feel free to message me if you require any help setting up Facebook or navigating it. I'll do my best. GREAT results for just 3 weeks on MyFitnessPal. Congratulations!!! I imagine your coworkers are possibly quite envious of your very quick results, and might be feeling a…

Thank you very much!! :)

Thank you, Anna! :)

Thank you!! Best wishes on your Shred adventure!! :-D

Thank you all!! :-D

Here is my results blog! http://todefyego.blogspot.com/2011/04/30-day-shred-results-round-two.html

I'm not even that large-chested, but I MUST wear a bra when working out to the Shred. And yes, this workout, even at Level 1, is INTENSE! Great job getting through it, stick with it! I've also found that I MUST wear good shoes to do these workouts, too. I used to do them barefoot, when I first started, and decided pretty…

When you're on the Message Boards page, click on 'My Topics' and it'll show you the topics you've started and/or replied to. Just navigate back here to this thread and post your progress as often as you wish. Best wishes!! :)

Great modifications! Even having completed two full rounds of the Shred at this point, I'm still doing the modified (on the knees) push ups. I used to struggle so much with them, but they've become easier. I'm still working my way up to a full, unmodified push up, and I'm OK with that! After 4 days of Level 1, I'm sure…

Thank you!! Feel free to come on back here whenever you want. I'll keep this thread going for whoever hasn't finished yet or for anyone new who wants to join in. Who knows, maybe I'll do a third round of 30 Day Shred one of these days!! Hehe... you're doing a great job! :)

It does look like a lot, but I think the most important thing to do is just listen to our bodies. If we're in tune with them, we know when enough is enough and when too much is just plain too much! Best wishes on your new schedule/plan. Let me know how it goes for you!
