  • For me personally I thought that I was eating fairly healthy and under or at my calorie goal, but the weight would not come off, and in fact kept creeping up. So I started logging my food everyday, and I realized just how much I was over eating! That taste of my daughter's macaroni and cheese, those baked chips because…
  • Wednesdays are my personal weigh in days, so I am just going to update here on Wednesdays not Saturday. SW: 170 CW: 166.4 Challenge GW: 155 So I am down 3.6 in my first week and a half. I have also been able to keep with my goal of working out at least three times a week, and my body is feeling it! I love/hate the feeling…
  • Just completed my day 4! I was proud of myself because I did one full set of pushups without stopping...the second set wasn't as good :) However, it was progress! I tried today to get a little deeper in my workout, and was surprised when I could go deep into my lunges without falling over! I agree with nikic50, it won't…
  • I figure mine as 1 day = 1 workout. So I started the challenge on Monday planning to do 3 days a week. So Monday was Day 1, Wednesday was Day 2 and today was Day 3. I think there are a few in this group that are doing it everyday and that is why they are on Day 5 already.
  • Today was my first day....and it almost didn't happen! I was planning to get up early and do it, but slept horribly, and didn't wake up with enough time to do it, get myself and the baby ready, get the babe to the babysitter, and get to work. I decided that I would shoot for tomorrow. After my 50 minute evening walk I got…
  • My plan is: Monday: 30 Day Shred in the AM, walking in the evening. Tuesday: Walking or Zumba in the evening. Wednesday: 30 Day Shred, walking in the evening. Thursday: Walking or Zumba in the evening. Friday: 30 Day Shred. Saturday: Walking - We usually go shopping or do something as a family this day which usually…

  • Starting Weight: 170 Arm: 13 Thigh: 27 Muffin Top: 40 Buns: 44 Waist: 32 Sorry no pictures. I took them, but I'm not confident enough to put them here :) Maybe after the 30 days!! Good luck to all!
  • The weights are entirely up to the individual. When I've done this before, I have started with my 2lb weight, but by they third level I was using my 5lb weights. Not sure about optimum results, but I know personally if I do the same workout consecutively I tend to get bored, and end up failing at my workout routines. That…
  • I'm with you! I will start Monday, but until then hope to get in at least two more days of exercise this week! I'm excited!
  • I had already thought about setting this goal for myself. Great to see that I can now have support and maybe some accountability by joining this challenge! I'm Raquel. I did Weight Watchers in 2006 and went from 183(HW) to 141(LW). I maintained that weight for 4 years, and then during my struggle to get pregnant the weight…
  • I would like to join this challenge! I started the 30 day Shred a few weeks ago, but had no accountability and no motivation. Maybe if I make it known here that I am planning on doing it I might actually stick to it! MWF would be perfect for me, I generally walk or do Zumba T and Th. When are you starting?
