On my 30 Day Shred, Jillian says punches are a great way to get your heart rate going while keeping your lower body still.

great job! You look fantastic.

I put my stats in and checked the 5 week goal that MFP sets compared to this goal. It says I would meet the 5 week MFP goal in 4 weeks. Either way i'm happy if I get there in 4 or 5 weeks!

Jackie, I feel your pain. I started this on Oct 19th and I have lost all of 2 pounds. I do not work out on Sat and Sun, though Sat I do walking. However, most of that time I have been right on with my calorie goals. I am frustrated, yet I know something is working cuz I have lost inches off my hips, I think about 4 inches.…

welcome. I have 4 kids and am losing the weight gained with my last. He's almost 5, so good on you for not waiting as long as I did!

My sis-in-law did a 10 day cleanse and lost 10 pounds, but she only kept it off a short while.

black bean burgers, veg. chilli, chickpea burgers, lentils.

This was interesting to me. I went to their website and it says I should be eating no less than 1840 calories, whereas MFP gives me 1230. I am wondering if my weight loss is stalled b/c I am eating too little. I try to keep about 1200-1400 when I exercise, but I wonder if I shouldn't be eating a little more than I am. It's…

I wonder if this is what my problem was. I am on a combined pill for high bp, but I forgot to take it almost all last week and while i didn't gain I didn't lose and I was super about what I ate (until Halloween! arrgg) and exersice. I remembered to start taking it this week and I am peeing like crazy so it will be…

Great job! I can't wait to get there myself. You should be proud in what you have accomplished and with Christmas coming, think of all you have already done and you will get through it without gaining.

I lost 2 pounds in the entire month of October, I know how it feels! I even started exercising half way through the month. However, I know that I feel better and am getting healthier even if the scale doesn't say anything!
-
I am so glad I am not the only one this happened to! I measured several times to make sure I was measuring right. I also was thinking I want the weight, not the # of chips. It makes me wonder if the weight on the bag is right!

My hubby nicely brought home 100 mini bars today cuz they were on sale!!!! AHHHHHH!!!! He has a condition where he can't eat w/o pain so he can have only one. I don't have this condition!!!
-
Well, I am going into my 3rd week of 30DS and it's gong good. I haven't lost anymore, but my spanx were falling down on Sunday so I know there is results showing in my body! So, only a 2 pound weight loss (after losing the 4 pounds I gained at the beginning), but def. a difference in my body and in my endurance. I can…

Spanx are slimming underwear. The ones I have go up to under your bust and over your thighs. They make lots of different styles though. Mine are actually body wrap brand sold at Addition Elle here in Canada. They're about $20 cheaper than the Spanx and fit me better (I have a very long back).

I went to Boston Pizza and had my favourite salad-Crispy Chicken Pecan! So delicious. However, I ordered it with grilled chicken so that saved me about 400 calories. Still I found out after I went that it was an 800 calorie salad! AHHHHH!!
-
I love my ellipical as well. I use it when I don't do the 30DS, or in the evening if I need to get a second work out in.
-
Gold BOnd is fantastic! I lived in FLorida and in the summer I used it nearly everyday when I was working outside.
-
When I was in South Africa, I went a to a group called Weigh Less and it was about healthy eating. Anyways, they divided your weight loss by percentages and rewarded you with each 10% lost. At certian percentages, it was adding more food choices in, having a snack 3 times a week, ect. It was really good as it taught…

Just wanted to share a little funny. My 4 y/o son is home some days when I exersice (I try and do it when he's at preschool other days). Anyways, he has started saying "Are you going to do your crunchies, mommy?" How cute!

My family (hubby, me and 4 kids ages 4-9) just went on a 10 day vacay and we spent 2 days travelling there, and 2 more travelling back. I tried to eat a low-cal but fillinf breaky like oatmeal. Then I made sure I had packed fruits and veggies, cuz I'm cheap and I won't spend on "munchies" if there is food in the car. I…

Well ladies, I have been doing it for 10 days now and FINALLY I have weight loss. I was so discouraged as I gained weight at the beginning (I know it's normal-but still discouraging). By today I lost all had gained (4 pounds) and another 2 pounds! I also measured myself and had lost an inch off my hips and waist, and half…
-
You must be from SK like me! I have taken to doing the 30 Day Shred in my living room for the last week and a half. It's too cold to go out and walk anymore! (Though I make my kids walk to school most mornings!) Maybe a work out video will help.
-
I have never heard of this, but I love cauliflower. We are going to try this. Thanks!
-
I just read that outloud to my hubby and we both laughed!! Perhaps becasue we have 4 kids aged 4-10!! Thanks for sharing.
-
I have to say my least fav is the jumping jacks/skipping combo in the first circut. It kills me every time, but I can see it getting "easier" each time too. My fav. would probably be the chest flies and punches. And today i actually got my feet up during the butt kicks. I can't kick my own butt yet, but I'm working on it!…
-
thanks so much! I decided to start exercising more than just walking last week and I gained 3 pounds. I am doing the 30 day shred and it is so hard for no results! But I am pushing through and looking forward to that big drop.
-
I started last week as well. It has been good. It totally kicked my butt the first couple days and now I can breathe through the exercises and my endurance is a hundred times better already. We had been on holidays right before I started the 30DS and this week I lost ALL 5 pounds that I gained on holidays. YAY! I have…
-
def. soups. Also tuna and rice cakes. I make my own bread so that saves tonnes of $$. I just make 5 or 6 loaves on one day and it lasts about a week (I have a family of 6). Also cook a whole turkey and then make turkey pot pie/sheperd's pie, turkey sandwiches, turkey veggie soup, turkey "pizza pockets" (just add mayo, and…

CHEESE!! The good thing I have found that if I eat more than a serving now I actually start to feel ill. Otherwise, chips...did I mention nachos with cheese? I love cheese.
