Hi! This is my first running (okay for me...probably more walking) challenge. I'm excited to set my goal at 50 miles for October. We are getting a four legged addition this week, so between him and our other fur baby- I foresee many walks in my future. ;)

I too am starting Paleo today...I found a 30 day challenge on Pinterest and she really breaks it down to seem somewhat doable. I have terrible indigestion/stomach issues and am hoping this helps. I also am hoping to get rid of this fatigue I seem to always have. And of course I hope to lose some weight. :wink: Feel free to…

I've had mine for about a week now and I love it. I find that towards the end of the day if I am falling short on my steps or deficit, it motivates me to get up and do some type of activity to reach my goal. I have mine set to lose 1.5 lbs a week and only having it for one week, it has worked. I'll be at the 1.5 loss for…

I will be finishing up my Day 5 of Level 1. I'm only doing 5 days of each level, and one day of Zumba...and taking a day of rest. :) So after tonight, I'll be on Level 2...I think I like this one better than the Shred. I guess I'll know after I move off level 1...LOL

I am shooting for at least 5 days a week plus taking Zumba on Sat mornings at my gym.

Finished Day 2 today...did an hour of Zumba this morning at the gym. Feeling good!!!

Did my first day of Ripped...it wasn't as tough as when I did my first day of the Shred. Maybe that means I'm getting stronger :-)

I just finished my first round of 30DS (literally, like yesterday). I lost 6lbs and 12.25 inches. I did the video everyday except two days and one of those days I ended up taking a Zumba class at my gym and burning twice as many calories...so only 1 day of no exercise. I also kept my calories at 1200 (which is what is…

I will be starting Day 1 this evening after work. I read (I think on her website) to do each level 5 out of the 7 days and then advance on...is that what everyone is doing? I noticed my knees giving me some trouble doing 30 DS every day so I'm wondering if taking the two days off would be best for me and maybe doing Zumba…

Thanks for putting this together. I will enter mine tonight after I attempt Day 1 of Ripped :)

That's awesome! I'm going to enter mine tonight but I figured mine up and I lost 12.25 inches so I think your loss sounds reasonable! Ready to start Ripped in 30 tonight! :)

Finished!!!! Woohoo. 6lbs and 12 inches lost! I'll take it! Pics later (if I can figure it out) :)

I'm still in it...last week was rough for me as I was out of town for work...feel sorry for the folks below me in my hotel room....LOL...Jillian and me on my little ol DVD player in the hotel room. I'm on Day 28 so only a couple more days....woo hoo!

Great job!!

I finished day 21 today...have went 21 days straight. I'm not stopping now :)

Will finish my day 20 today...nervous about Level 3 tomorrow...LOL but am excited to see my progression after taking pics and measurements tonight. I decided to do those on Day 1, 10, 20 and 30. Good job ladies. We're almost done!!

I'm in. I am ordering the video today off of Amazon. Looking forward to seeing some great results. Have been happy so far on the Shred :).

My day 15 done!!

Finished my day 14! Woohoo :)

Finished my Day 13 today...hubby even did it with me too :)

Level 2 was brutal....started it today. Plus side is I burned an extra 50 cal :)

Tonight I will be finish up Level 1 and am doing measurements as well....I think I have lost some inches and I've lost 2.4lbs (but am also watching my sugar and carb intake).

Good job everyone!! Is everyone ready to move to Level 2? I'm scared...LOL

I finished my Day 8 this morning. I made the mistake of "peeking" at Level 2 last night...LOL. So not looking forward to starting my weekend with that (HA)! But I agree I'm getting kind of bored with Level 1...and I don't mean by any means that I am flying through it with flying colors just that I'm ready for a some…

I plan on taking pics and measurements at Day 10 too...although I'd like to think of myself as somewhat computer savvy but even after changing the IMG to lowercase, I still am unable to post photos...so all you may get on here is a link...LOL. I seriously don't understand why I can't post the pic?? I hope to see somewhat…

Ha! Well good luck. I like the C25k program but it's too cold now to run outside and I feel guilty for going to the gym after working all day...hence why I'm doing the video :)

Just finished Day 6....can actually almost do it all without my arms burning to the extreme :)

Finished my Day 5 this morning...ready to tackle Day 6 :)

I finished Day 5 today. I was able to walk again normal after Day 3...lol. I found doing a short stretching/yoga video after helps tremendously with the soreness....well when I can. This morning my son woke up before I was done with Jillian and preceded to "work out" with me so I was done after that. :) Good luck!

Good job! Are you modifying your diet any?
