These sound amazing but I'm hesitant to make these since the few people that have actually made them and come back to review them weren't very pleased. And I wouldn't want to waste pumpkin like that! :tongue:

Bumping for later!

So many good quotes out there!! Thank you all for contributing!! I couldn't pick just one so I decided to print out a few of them and will post them all over the house! :bigsmile:

After working (and sweating) around the house all day yesterday, I really wasn't sure if I was going to be able to have enough energy to power through 30DS last night but I did it!! :noway: I probably "phoned it in" a little but it was much better than the alternate of just sitting on the couch. Although after getting…

Single mama here to an 8 year old daughter and a 5 year old son. Trying to figure out how to fit everything in without taking away from anyone and still dealing with a 90 minute one-way commute to work each day. I'm 31, 5'3, and just weighed in on Wednesday at 147. Right now my only goal is to get motivated and make a…

Didn't get my workout in yesterday because I was out late for a birthday dinner. Then had to be up early for a termite inspection except I ended up leaving before the guy showed up because he was at least 30 minutes late. Hoping to get started tonight if not tomorrow for sure. How is everyone else doing?

@tigermom12 - everyone goes through the program differently. I have yet to finish it or even make it past level 1 so I can't speak from experience. But I've heard some people run through the whole thing in 30 days. Other people have given themselves rest days. However, I have also heard that Jillian recommends rest days…

Fabulous!! Hopefully everyone will get a chance to check in here every once in a while to share their likes and dislikes about the program. And things that have helped or hindered their progress. I'm also hoping to post before and after pictures too!! :noway:

I'm starting 30DS today and have done C25K in the past but never got through it. I really want to start it again though because completing a 5K is on my bucket list!

I'm 5'3 and weighed in last week at 146. I'm pretty sure tomorrow will show a gain though. Like you, I'm human and have my bad relationships with food...mostly sweets. Work full-time. Single mama to 2 human babies. After a reality check with my boyfriend, I'm trying to turn this negative energy I've found into something…

I wasn't sure where to start up again but I have been completely convinced that lifting is the way to go! Thank you ladies for posting and motivating! You all look amazing!!

@CameoDouglas - your stats are a lot like mine. I don't think I want to get down to 115 but your transformation was the kick in the booty I needed!! :bigsmile:

Bumping for now!! :bigsmile: You people have done an amazing job and are all completely hot! :love: I need these threads to keep me motivated and headed in the right direction! :drinker:

<~~~ 31 years young!! Single mama to 2 kiddos. Currently working on shedding a good 30 pounds. Feel free to add me!

Bumping for later!! I'm about to get my own kitchen and these sound like a great snack for the kids!!

Hip hop and rap just aren't the same as they once were as someone mentioned in the "M"TV days!

I have been contemplating whether I should give it another shot or not. I'm not quite prepared to start today but I think I just may need to start it up in a couple of days!

Love this thread! Keep up the great work! Everyone looks amazing!

Thank you to all the ladies that posted their successes!! I definitely needed that motivation!! I'm 5'3 and currently weigh in at 150. Right now, my goal is to get down to 130 and re-evaluate the situation.

I admit it...I failed also!! :noway: I had a very emotional and frustrating day yesterday and caved! :sad: I'm hoping to take a few days to regroup and get back on the wagon. I'm still preparing healthy meals for the family and got plenty of healthy snacks ready for the kid's lunches this week so I'm still fairly proud of…

Kelr - loved all of your meals for this week! I need to incorporate more crock pot meals into my weekly plan so that I'm not scrambling or cooking until midnight on the nights that my son has tee ball practice.

I was wondering the same thing yesterday. I did some reading on the Whole30 forums and it basically said that they discourage you from snacking and you should try to avoid it if possible. Your meals should be enough to get you through until the next meal. Personally, I think it's better to not overload on a meal but rather…

Luckily, I feel as though I'm making the right food choices but not eating the right portions and not exacty sure what my plate needs to be made up of. And I know I'm not getting nearly enough vegetables!

Quinn - glad to hear that you faced the day by making better choices than you would have liked to! :flowerforyou: AFM...I feel as though I'm just doing everything wrong!!

I have always loved orange-flavored anything but never really liked eating actual oranges but my kids had a walk-a-thon a few weeks ago that I volunteered at. They had bought Cara Cara oranges for the kids. They intrigued me. When I was at Costco this past weekend, they had a village-size bag for $6.99 so I got it and I…

Great work girly! Your hard work and dedication has paid off!! Keep at it and you will be where you want to be!!

As most of you know, I'm one week behind you and just got started today but I already had my first cheat dream last night and it wasn't even about what I was eating! I was more upset that I had already ruined my first whole30!

Went to Whole Foods yesterday to pick up some staples that I know will be much needed. My purchase included: lemons olive oil coconut oil almond butter sweet potatoes I'll have to make it to Costco to get the eggs and a lot of my meat. I'm super excited (yet still scared) to start!!

Thank you for sharing your experience! I start my first Whole30 on Monday and couldn't be more excited, petrified, and intrigued!! Good luck on your next venture!!

I imagine I will be spending the entire 30 days dreaming about my cheats. I also have a feeling that I wll spend this weekend dreaming about something related to it as well. However, I'm still super excited about starting on Monday. And although I have yet to start, I don't think I will be planning my meal for day 31 (I…
