  • sounds like a great plan!
  • count me in too!!! :) I am using Isagenix products & just started to incorporate Creation's Garden products... upping my protein & monounsaturated fats, upping my raw veggies & continuing to change up my workouts weekly so my body breaks the plateau! I also need to jumpstart as I got a bit lax at the holidays & ate way too…
  • I really love Isagenix protein- 18 gr of protein per scoop & no artificial chemicals - I add stevia or xylitol & unsweetened cocoa powder. You can also use frozen fruit if you want to change it up. :)
  • i'd love to have more nurses on here for support also! I'm in michigan *& currently work in home healthcare. Business is slow, so I might have to find per diem work- which means possibly night shifts.... :/
  • about feet moving/slipping w/ the plank jacks- are you working out on a non-slip area (if the area rug is moving- it might be a good idea to just kick it out of the way while you work out... and are you wearing shoes? I can't do the workouts w/o proper support- that might help.... good luck!
  • i have had a few days off here & there- but I only have a couple more days of lvl2 & then I'm on to level3. I woke up this morning- and my abs felt tight. YAY! :) I still have flab that I'm working on- but I know if I keep this up, I'll get to where I need to be! Thanks to all for being in this group- this has been great…
  • I gained 4 lbs after level1 but my clothes feel better.... I am trying to not let the scale weigh me down..... I have screwed up a few days by missing workouts- but overall I don't think i've been that bad. I have a few more days of level2 before going onto level3. I am hoping that after I finish that, I might take a few…
  • I've done 5 days in a row. have a daytrip to Chicago today, so not sure if I will be up for the workout when I get home late tonight- and I'm feeling zombie-ish now.... Slept through my alarm & on MFP while the coffee kicks in- just wanted to check in. I'll be off 2 days now on the 30-day challenge- but I am done w/ 5 days…
  • oh yay! lastnight I met a friend for coffee & decided to walk to the cafe instead of drive! :) I didn't even log the walk (aka jog- as I was running my usual late) :)
  • I'll get my measurements & log in- thank you! :)
  • tough call. I'm a nurse. I've worked lots of different jobs. And for me- I know I am a nurse at heart- however the JOB of nursing isn't always the best match for a person. I don't want to bash nursing on a whole- so I won't post too much here, but feel free to add me on &/or message me. :) ~Tanya, aka CircusPixie~
  • Hi All! I'm Tanya. I'm 34 & living in Michigan. I have done JM shred workouts off & on for a few years- but I have never actually done the 30-day-shred challenge. I'm READY! I've also never made it to level 3- again, totally READY! :) I have another 10lbs to lose to reach my goal weight- but it's more than a goal weight- I…
  • I'm in! I am currently doing the shred workouts a couple times each week- but I'd like to do it daily & then add in some jogging on a few days to add to my activity...
  • so far, so good! i am exercising everyday & keeping my calories down! I am super excited to see what changes will come around for next month! :D
  • I'm IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • omg. true story- this is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i tweaked it just a bit, & it is still healthy & delish!!!!! Thanks for posting this!!
  • oh YUM! thanks for posting! I think I'll make this tonight!!! :flowerforyou:
  • I'd love to hear more about Fit Bits... as for the Shape Up shoes- I HATED my pair! I spent top dollar on them (I am a nurse & when i wore them I worked 12-14 hr shifts on my feet) - I didn't notice any difference in "feeling the burn" of more muscle being used- however I did not feel like they were stable shoes or…
  • when I worked nights on the floor, I found it necessary to keep a baggie of almonds in one of my scrub pockets. I measure out a serving size per baggie & that really helps! Also bring foods that are high in fiber & protein - those help keep you working all night. Carbs cause sugar crashes & as "comforting" as they are at…
  • I just took a day/desk job & am TERRIFIED of getting worse about diet/exercise. I used to work nights & never took breaks & then would gorge on comfort food after my shift ended. I spent 2011 laid up with ankle surgeries & rehab'ing my leg so I gained about 30 lbs that I had taken off in the last few years. I am on the…
  • I use Isagenix & LOVE it!!! No artificial sweetners! I use the whey protein (18 gram/scoop) & then blend it w/ frozen berries & honey. I also love using a tbsp of coconut meat to round it out as a complete meal. The other protein meal replacement I like is Champion Nutrition Ultramet original vanilla & strawberry flavors.…
  • count me in!!!!
