Sounds interesting... I love pb and I love beef stew. So that's a bump from me!

I am also starting week 2 today. Eeek I'm scared! I lost my dvd remote so I have to watch all 36 mins of week 1 before moving onto week 2. Grrrrr.

That's excellent! I love a little confidence boost! My scale went up a couple pounds...

When are you guys switching to week 2? My plan was to take sundays off (I slacekd a little on week 1) and workout 6 days (totalling 1 week) then switching, so I'd start week 2 tomorrow. Is that what y'all are doing too?

I took before pics but not measurements. It's not really inches Im wanting to lose per se, I just want to look good and feel good! My butt/thigh area needs some work along w/my tummy that jiggles :) Aw hell, my arms need work too. I just want to be toned all over! I wish I could jump rope... I can only do it with both feet…

Day 3: I can see a difference in my legs. All that soreness is paying off ALREADY! I went from 5 lb weights to 10 and when it came down to the 3rd circuit I downgraded to 7.5. I need to work on my cardio - I have to stop half way through her cardio circuits. Running man slays me. And when I do butt kicks after all those…

Don't worry - the soreness goes away!

I missed 2 1/2 days of workouts but back at it again today. And guess what?! I was able to do ALL OF THE PUSHUPS INSTEAD OF HALF! Modified, but still an improvement. And I doubled my weights from 5 to 10. I'm definitely feeling the burn. Took a little break to brag - now gotta get back! So happy! Keep it up guys! Let's…

That's awesome! Thanks!

I don't stop it, but I miss some reps as well... running man, seated rows, lunge/bicep curls. Yeah...

Are you able to complete the whole video? I'm at 90% right now...

is anyone else taking before/after photos?

As far as the exercise routine... I haven't been exercising, until now. So I know that's not the issue. LOVE Zuzana by the way, if I could only do her workouts... one day... And I am really bad about drinking water. Unless I have a bottle in my hand constantly, I do not take trips to the tap for a glass of water. I am…

So I just completed day 2. I am only able to do about 90% of it. I am a wimp when it comes to hard effort, lol! The chair fly things, I HATE!! I can't complete them w/out taking a break... The Lunges SUCK. But the hardest thing for me is the running man! "POP POP POP"... I think I need to work on my cardio. I could do abs…

I did it! Day 1 complete! I feel like jello. I feel floppy and uncoordinated. When she had us do the football shuffle thing, I just felt like I was flopping around. I can't wait to see some results: less giggle, and feeling more control! Screw those squated fly thingies... Ugh! I did about 90% of it!

My goal is not so much weight loss (the # on the scale) as much as it is burning fat and gaining muscle. I want to be strong, not weak. I want to do REAL pushups. I'll have to post some measurements later. What measurements should I be taking? I've never measured myself before...

I get a vodka + water and add crystal light. Tastes pretty good. Or I'll get Jack and diet.

Le BUMP!

I plan to rest on Sunday. Saturday if I need it. I'm TERRIFIED, lol. I did 1 workout last week and couldn't move for like 5 days. It was ridiculous. I'm taking bromelain to hopefully help w/the inflammation. I'm pretty out of shape and her workout really kicked my *kitten*.

Well COUNT ME IN!

I just realized I have Ripped in 30, not 30 Day Shred :(

I want to start! How do I join?

I wake up, pee, get naked, weigh myself then shower :) I see a couple pounds difference from the evenings. Usually about a 3 lb difference. I like positive results, so I weigh in the mornings!

Thanks!

It was fantastic! My boyfriend emptied the boat! I helped :)

I made a raspberry or blueberry glaze that can also be used on salad. Delicious on fish as well! 1 part preserves to 1 part vinegar. Yum! I can't wait to pick the blackberries by my house! Almost ripe!

Perhaps I'm weird... I just like the plain old seasoned premium turkey burgers (orange bag) from Jennie-O. Grill it up, put some cheese on it, and I used to eat it with ketchup but now I eat it without. I don't know how to make it more fun for kids... When my boyfriends kids won't eat what we're eating - they eat top…

Emeril's naan is good... If you could substitute whole wheat flour maybe? I make it with my Chicken Tikka Masala and it turns out great! Not sure how to minimize the oil though... http://www.emerils.com/recipe/4422/Naan-Bread

Oooooh I got one here and it's delicious! 150 cals/each. Not traditional pizza... 4 portabello mushroom caps 4 roma tomatoes, chopped 1 leek, chopped 1 onion, chopped 1 tbsp fresh squeezed lemon juice fresh grated parmesan cheese 4 basil leaves, chopped olive oil for sauteeing - I use about 2 TBSP (that's where most of the…

This helped me quit once before too! I found it impossible to smoke without coughing up a lung!
