Sounds like everyone is off to a great start! And thank you for posting your meals! Helps me figure out my meal plan!!

Thank you ladies for the support and encouragement! I still have every intention of starting on Monday. It will obviously be a little harder than anticipated without the support of my boyfriend. But I need to do this for ME and only me! I told him that I couldn't believe that he wouldn't support my attempt to make myself a…

:sad: Epic Fail!! Ok...maybe not epic but after going back and forth, I decided to postpone the start of my Whole30 for another week. I still don't feel educated enough and therefore feel very under-educated about the entire thing. I wasn't able to spend the time at the hospital while my boyfriend was in surgery reading up…

A HUGE thank you to everyone that has been giving their expert advice!! :flowerforyou: I'm super excited to take on this challenge and know that it will be one of the best things that I've ever done for myself! But on the other note, I'm fearful that I'm not nearly as prepared as I need to be and I'm only setting myself up…

I'm headed out today on my lunch break to buy the book. I've been searching for it online for a "good" price but I'm over that now and just want to start reading it! Starting on the 15th is going to work out better for me than I thought...my boyfriend is going in for major surgery on April 12th to have bones in his foot…

Ok...I'm in!! :drinker: I have been attempting to be as paleo/primal as possible lately but I think that I am so usure of what I can/can't eat that I don't put in nearly as much effort as I could. But I think the Whole 30 challenge may be just what I need to get my bootie in gear! Unfortunatey, I don't have too much time…

My interest in a paleo/primal diet has definitely been peeked! :noway: I think I will do some research over the weekend and give myself a 30 day challenge!

Ladies...feel free to add me! :flowerforyou: My Stats 31 yrs old Mother of Height 5' 3" Highest Weight 182 (before I even had my kids) Current Weight 150ish lbs (its been a week or 2 since I've weighed in) Goal Weight 130lbs (Just trying to make it there and then re-evaluate the whole situation) I'm struggling to stay on…

I say that every BODY truly is different and will react to things differently. I have been on Depo and actually got pregnant while using it. Shortly after my son was born, I had my first IUD inserted. I have to say that my only side effect is my hair loss but I think taking biotin has helped with that. I just had my 2nd…

Not wanting to work out in front of my boyfriend has probably been the biggest reason that I haven't worked out in the past month. My boyfriend has been on crutches the past month and not working so he would just lay in bed and criticize my every move rather than encourage me. And I have roommates so working out in the…

First weigh-in was today and I maintained over the last week which wasn't exactly what I was going for but will absolutely take it rather than gaining! Here's to hoping next week moves along a little better! :drinker:

Welcome!! :flowerforyou: Your introduction sounds like we are at a real support group meeting! :drinker: I'm right there with ya! I want this and I really want this to stick this time around. I'm tired of making excuses! I just need to find the willpower to make it happen! Happy losing!! :bigsmile:

Let's do this! I could use a nice kick in the booty to get this whole thing jump started! I happily will accept friend requests! Current Weight: 149 lbs. Height: 5'3" Age: 31 Location: sunny Southern California

I'm an old vet but finally getting my booty in gear so that I can make this happen! :grumble: Feel free to add me! :bigsmile:

Woohoo...back at it again Rachel! I :heart: it!! We can do this! Baby steps rather than trying to see the big picture tomorrow. :bigsmile:

I'm ready to make 2013 MY year!! :bigsmile: Time to quit making excuses and just make it happen! The only person stopping me is me!! :grumble:

Feel free to add me. I have about 30 pounds to lose and need to super glue my @$$ to the wagon so that I will stop falling off. Or just simply take responsibility for my actions and do what needs to be done!! :grumble:

I absolutely love this idea and how it can involve everyone in the healing process that will take place in Connecticut. I have already forwarded this information to the principal at my children's school, the director of their daycare, a friend that will be hosting a Christmas party on Friday, my best friend, and plan to do…

Day 5 Level 1 is on schedule for tonight! Although I can honestly admit that I'm gonna have to force myself to do it! I just want to curl up in bed and veg out but I keep asking myself why I can't give just 27 minutes so that I can see the results I want. I have yet to come up with a good answer so it looks like Day 5 it…

We're just gonna say that today ended in a partial fail! :ohwell: I had one of the worst, most draining days that I've had in a long long time. Work was crazy. The boyfriend was less than stellar. My 5-year old has decided to start peeing his pants again and did this twice within 3 hours. Managed to lose my driver's…

Before I had even read about this challenge yesterday, I had ordered a cinnamon roll from a drive-thru because I love sweets and it was only $1. However, I only took one bite (which probably wasn't even a full bite) and put it away never to finish the rest of it. After reading the challenge, I would say I did fairly well.…

Thank you Hot Mamas for all of your pictures and inspiration! I'm still a work in progress but hope that it is only a matter of time before I can post my own success story and pictures!

Less than stellar weekend for me but unfortunately that is usually the case with me between the boyfriend coming down for the weekend and my kids. We attended 2 birthday parties this weekend. Friday night's party added a small calorie burn but probably not enough to compensate for the food and cake I ate. Saturday's food…

Love this challenge!! Count me in!!

Well the weekend turned into rest days for me. Tonight I have day 4 on schedule. Since the weekends will more than likely turn into rest days for me, I'm debating on whether I should just do 30DS Monday - Thursday and rest Friday - Sunday or if I should still incorporate some cardio. But on the bright side, I think I have…

Dilemma...I did days 2 and 3 consecutively and could potentially get the opportunity to continue with days 4 and 5 to add to that streak but that would mean I have to do day 4 tonight at 10:00 and then day 5 tomorrow morning at 9. Any ideas on how I should work this out?? Does it even matter??

Bump...I'm 5'3 and have yet to get to the point of posting my success story but I'm hoping to find any extra motivation and encouragement!

Perhaps you can walk backwards for the rest of the day to attempt to undo the damage! Did you also calculate the calories burned to walk up, get the fries, and consume them??

Feel free to add me! I have about 20 pounds to lose before I re-evaluate what my ultimate goal is. I also just started 30 day shred this week and finished up day 3 last night.

Completed L1D3 last night!! Halfway through the workout, I was cursing Jillian and never wanting to do that workout again. And then when it was all said and done, I realized that it may be tough but its still totally manageable and the results will be amazing so I need to stick with it and finally be able to say that I…
