I kind of like the idea of the month-long thread. My first round of 30DS, there were a bunch of people at the begining and then they all dropped like flies. It was only me and 2 others by the end. I need all the support I can get! :tongue:

I'm in too! I finished my first round of 30DS about a week ago. I want to do another round of it before I try her Ripped in 30. Couple of things to keep in mind for you first timers: 1) You will most likely gain a couple of pounds the first 1/2 of the program. It's just your muscles holding on to water and glycogen to…

try http://www.picnik.com/ I've had pretty good success with it. :smile:

Well, um, actually a pretty nice little Saturday, we're going to go to Home Depot. Yeah, buy some wallpaper, maybe get some flooring, stuff like that. Maybe Bed, Bath, & Beyond, I don't know, I don't know if we'll have enough time.

lol There is a phrase here: Rode hard and put away wet. I think it's original term was meant for horses but it's been used here to explain a very hot and heavy s*xual encounter. The pop the cherry thing always kind of grossed me out and made it difficult for me to enjoy cherry pie. :laugh:

This is my favorite breakfast...you could substitute any of your favorite veggies! In a bowl I scramble one whole egg and one egg white with a few dashes of Mrs. Dash Garlic Tomato Basil seasoning. Spray butter spray in a fry pan and saute chopped mushrooms and onions When almost cooked add fresh spinach until wilted Add…

Thanks shellrae! Ok, I did Level 1 yesterday and Level 2 today - bumped up with the 5 lb arm weights and 2.5 lb leg weights. First let me just say, level 1 seemed like a breeze compared to the first go-round and Level 2 (which I was dreading) wasn't really that bad! But, o...m...g. I am ::so:: sore. It hurts to move. lol…

Remember after day one of level one and how sore you were? Well, welcome back old friend. :laugh: It's not quite as severe as the first time around but I'm pretty dang sore today! Right in my inner thighs so it's painful to sit on the toilet. I'm a little surprised, I really didn't think it would make me sore again. Jokes…

Thanks so much vintagefool! I've got a long way to go, so I am doing another round. In fact, today was my first day except I'm going to alternate levels with days. So do 1 then 2 then 3, rinse, repeat. I started to get a little bored with the same routine after a few days. But, get this, I went out and bought 5 lb weights…

30 DAY SHRED DONE!!! Ok, here it is! To recap: - I didn't follow any diet restrictions or changes to my normal eating. I ate whatever, whenever. - I only did the shred – no other supplemental workouts. - I shredded 30 days straight – 10 at 1, 10 at 2, 10 at 3 - I used 3 lb weights - I didn't take measurements. LEVEL 3…

bump to read later

YAY!!!! Congrats!!! Sounds like your results are awesome, fantastic job! :drinker: :flowerforyou: :bigsmile: :heart:

Day 29 DONE! I only have one day left...wow! (Well, technically not since I'm going to do another round, but I digress...) I feel like I saw more changes in my body during level 1 than 2, until I saw the B/A pictures. Level 3 I don't feel like there has been that much change either so I'm looking forward to seeing the…

Hi all! Just checking in. I took the weekend off from shredding. It was almost impossible to talk myself into doing it this morning. There was a war going on in my head! I ended up doing it, but really wished I hadn't taken the days off. Anywho, I got 'er done this morning, that's all that counts. Hope you all have a great…

This has been the most eye-opening thread. Thank you to all the gentleman for their input! I would say the descriptions on this picture seem to be pretty accurate but I am so surprised at the men's input on what they find beautiful. My eyes immediately draw to #2 as the most beautiful body type...which I will never look…

Incredible!!! So amazing. And kudos for you for being so dedicated! I just can't get over what 30 days did for you. Congrats, you look fantastic!!

Day 5, Level 3 DONE. 5 Days left and it's going so fast! So yesterday our department at work had a luncheon at a Mexican restaurant and then I had dinner for a friends birthday at...another Mexican restaurant. :frown: Needless to say, this morning I had a total food hangover. I think I ate a weeks worth of sodium and…

I didn't get a chance to post this morning, but I did squeeze in my Day 3 Level 3 done this morning. woot woot! shellrae1973 - you aren't kidding! My obliques are still sore when I laugh or tense up my stomach muscles. Isn't it funny? I thought the first Level abs weren't doing anything much and I wondered how people had…

That is fantastic!!! 5" and 4 lbs is just amazing!! Great job shellrae, you have got to be feeling awesome right now.

Thank you vintagefool! Day 2 on Level 3 DONE. Wow, ok so Jillian found some new muscles to torture in this level because I woke up sore. It was hard to get into it this morning, my muscles are hating me. lol I kept telling myself, only 9 more days left and I'm done!! I've got to give it all I got. Side note: Jillian is…

The best way I can describe Level 2 is - it separates the men from the boys. lol The first day I almost started crying 1/2 way through. All 10 days I felt like I was going to puke while doing it. I did not enjoy that level one bit. But you know what? Day 10, I pushed it to the max and was amazed at the things I could do…

omg! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Hi everyone! Thanks so much for all your words of encouragement on my progress. I can't wait to see how you all are coming along! Ok, so I just finished Day 1 of Level 3...and I lived to talk about it! :bigsmile: I kinda like it! Just as a heads up for all you HRM wearers, in the 1st circuit there is a superman pose that…

There are 3500 calories in a pound. So unless you treated yourself to 10,500 extra calories in one day, then I'm guessing it's just water retention. You had fun with friends and enjoyed life for a moment. It'll be ok. Just get back on track and you'll see those 3 lbs disappear within the next 1-3 days.

Day 2 & 3 were like that for me. It brought tears to my eyes every time I had to go to the bathroom. Everything hurt so bad! Try a hot bath and some ibuprofen. Trust me, before you know it you won't be sore at all. I finished day 20 today and actually miss being that sore because I knew I worked all sorts of muscles I…

You look gorgeous, just fantastic. Amazing job!

You can bend over to tie your shoes and it doesn't feel like you've completely cut off your airway and your face stops turning bright red.:ohwell:

Holy crap, you look fantastic!!!

bump!! Must try this!!
