As a fellow educator I feel your frustration! I'd try morning workouts. It's tough to get up and moving, but it ensures you have time. Maybe try it for two weeks and see if you're more energized during your day. Otherwise fit in longer weekend workouts and pick one day a week to skip grading and workout instead. Lol maybe 5

Good for you! You must be extremely dedicated. Congratulations!

It's now about 6 months in...how'd it go?

https://www.facebook.com/LeslieSansone Here are some inspirational stories as well

I absolutely love Leslie DVDs. I began working out with these over three years ago and have lost 60 pounds. My first 20 were exclusively her DVDs. I went from walking to jogging. Now I'm doing high impact workouts, but still prefer DVDs. I have a young child and don't want to leave my home so DVD are my preferred method.…

Not only is Leslie walking and motivating you to as well by sharing tips and advice, she incorporates strength training in some with bands or weights, she does things like knee lifts, kicks and grapevines. I really enjoyed walking and beginning to jog in the privacy of my own home. I'm not too self-conscious, but I was…

RIGHT!!! This makes me crazy :laugh:

I'm certain Wal-mart carries it, I got mine at Kmart! Super cheap 9.95!!!!!!!!!! I love it. I also like her Burn fat Boost Metabolism dvd.

YEA! Good for you...what's running with the zombies?

This made me laugh. I have to watch out when my son is in the room because I'm always yelling obscenities to Jillian through the TV. "Yea, I AM b****!" :laugh: :wink:

FINALLY! Thank you, I see all of the posts for 30 day shred, but I've completed it and moved to Ripped. I'm still on Level 1, but it's a great workout. I started on the 3rd of this month and have lost about 3lbs. since which is a huge loss for me in that amount of time!

This is me! Well, not so much now, but a few months back. I did have baby weight, but before hand I had a lot of extra weight just around the middle. I can say it does happen,whether this photo is shopped or not...

:laugh:

Thanks for the ONLY reply...lol. I will keep that in mind! CONGRATULATIONS, She's tough! My legs were killing me the first few days of level one, but I think I've built enough muscle tone now to get through the legs. My arms and shoulders were killing me on day 2 of level 2. I've still got another 16 days to go! CONGRATS…

YAY!!!! I love to celebrate NSV!! They're the best victories to celebrate!! GOOD FOR YOU, you should be so proud of yourself!:drinker:

Has anyone tried the Brazilian Butt Lift DVDs?

****CHIRP,CHIRP*** LOL, Anyone?

I like being able to try something before I buy it. This site is awesome because it gives you access to different types of workouts, so you know what you'll like and introduces you to some of the fitness personalities. I'm on a tight budget as well, but love my home workouts, so I usually skip the big series and go for…

These threads are so helpful! Here's my favorite...http://www.squidoo.com/free-workout-videos-online:)

I like these DVDs! my favorite is the abs workout. There are always five workouts that can be mixed and matched. I like the diversity. I think they work well. I mix them up and do all five workouts at least once a week and I'm starting to find my ABS!!! I've also been doing tons of cardio. Try them out first and see what…

All I can say is wow! I'd not heard this story. I love to run outside, in the evening, by myself. This should be read by everyone visiting this site!!!!

I'm also doing 30 day shred and I plan to move on to ripped in 30 after. I like the 10 minute solutions DVD. Each 10 min segment is focused in on a major muscle group and I like that they're only ten minutes. I can do just 1 or all 5 when time allows. Heres a link to free online workouts. Maybe try a few and see what…

I am doing 30 day shred right now. I started about a week ago and am finding that I really like it as well. I also like Leslie Sansone Walk @ Home DVDS. Some are way to easy, but she does have more intense ones like her 3 mile boot camp and 4 mile "boosted" walk (jogging). I also have a collection of 10 minute solution…

Thanks...I had to go to this site to figure it out...i was thinking if it actually stayed there (because then I'd have won:laugh: _) LOL

BOOO!!! LOL...I didn't pass...but I'll be trying again soon:wink:

There are a lot on Youtube. I found Jillian Micheal's 30 day shred! Full length and all the levels I also found her meltdown yoga level one!

http://www.squidoo.com/free-workout-videos-online This is a great tool. It was made by someone who took the time to search free and legitimate full length videos. You can find everything from Zumba to Jillian's 30 day shred. I;m loving it!

Thanks for this topic. I just started 30DS as well and was wondering how often it should be done. Thanks for all the posts everyone!

FANTASTIC WEIGHT LOSS!! if there is anyone I would trust, it would be someone who can prove they've "been there, done that"! Thanks for sharing with us Jjw1125!!

Well I am in complete agreement with this friend of yours! I can think of many other "American ailments" getting up off our *kitten* would cure. Diabetes, obesity, mental illnesses, cardiovascular disease, cancers....oh my this list could go on and on. Thanks for sharing with us Jenaesmith!!!!
