I'm embarassed to ask, but what is one stone?

Ohhh gosh, I'm terrified to think of winter. It gets to about -40 c here, for 6 months won't be walking outside here!

I had no idea about your TOM screwing things up for a bit! It totally makes sense. Too bad mines not coming for another 2 weeks:( so that can't be why. Yeah, I must have hit a mini plateau. With your guys advice, (thanks so much!) I think I'll change up my routine a bit. Maybe I'll do an hour of cardio in the morning some…

I guess because of the results I was getting before, I expected it would just keep coming off the same. I weigh 230lbs right now and I'm 5'7"ish, so I figured so much of it would disappear quickish. I don't get that eating back what you burned at all. How do you lose weight when you eat more calories? Yes, I'm one of those…

Well, second day of level 3. Jumping squats suck. I simply can't do them yet.

Yeah, the planks are definitely overdone!

I can't wait to try some of her other DVDs. I'm def looking forward to this one being done. Seeing some good results, but I'm also working out on days I don't do DS. I think I'll have to do extra crunches or other ab workouts on top of the ones in level 3 because I don't really feel it in this one either!

I'm going to have to really push myself next week. ARGGH. I just want to sit around in my pjs with junk food and play Borderlands 2 all week. Life isn't fair.

I TRY, emphasis on try, to plan for it. Like, if I know I'm going to go out for drinks, I am super strict with my eating and exercise for that day (ie: push it a little harder for the exercise and eat super clean and maybe a little less than normal). That's what I try to do anyway. It makes me feel better when I am having…

^This. I work in a clinic and have heard of patient's who had the surgery done and it had reversed itself. Tubes grew back. The human body is an amazing thing!

First off, don't go crazy and google your symptoms all over the internet and self-diagnose yourself! So many people do that and stress themselves out-which is a causes periods to be delayed. I wouldn't work yourself up right now until you see your MD. That's why they're there. You need to tell them EVERYTHING that has…

Good news is that I'm down 20 pounds since July 30th! Bad news is that I haven't lost a pound this week. *Sigh*

I heard you had to up your protein intake by like, 15%. I hope people can offer their experiences!

That's exactly what my mother told me to do and I plan on spending a day doing just that!

Going to drink more water for sure.I've also been trying to make meals at home from scratch but I must say it's quite difficult with my schedule BUT that's not an excuse..I'm going to make the effort and try to do that. Thanks, guys!

I'm 5'7", weigh 230lbs and wear a size 16! Shirts fit at L or XL!

I usually don't have much time during the day to prepare myself proper meals (I work in health care so my shifts are all over the place and frequent!) I've been eating Lean Cuisines and Smart Ones for a month now and have still been losing weight! I'm not sure if they're technically "good" for you, but they sure help with…

I am 24 years old and have been suffering from insomnia for about 6 years now. For the first few years, I was unable to fall asleep and when I did, I had trouble staying asleep. My sleep pattern was, well non-existent. There was no pattern. I gained lots of weight as well obviously due to no energy and eating terrible…

Congrats on the weight loss so far! I'm going to agree with everyone and say fluctuations are normal. If you're going to weigh yourself daily, do it first thing in the morning when you wake up AFTER you go to the washroom. Don't weigh yourself more than that as the fluctuations will discourage you.

I can help! I can help! When I started my new "lifestyle" ie: eating healthy and exercising, I actually started off exercising VERY slowly after making a huge mistake. Thing is, I was about 90 lbs overweight when I decided to make a change in my life. I picked up 30DS and gave it a shot. Turns out I couldn't even make it…

I'm so confused now. I changed my goals to lose 2 pounds a week. And since I lost my first 20 lbs, myfitnesspal changed my daily calorie intake as 1280! That's not really enough for me. I was struggling with 1400 a day. What should I do ? I know 1280 isn't enough!

Thanks for the help, guys. I can relate to a lot of your lives (if that makes sense) I'm getting used to eating healthy now and counting calories-it's been about a month now so it's easier for me to just tell myself this is how I eat now. I just felt bad about not being able to exercise every single day. I'm freaking out…

I'm just about 5'8" and right now weigh 240lbs. I have been wearing XL since I was about 220 lbs.

Thanks for the help. I'm off to Zumba do this won't be long-yes, I've lost the 7 lbs in about a month now. I figured it's all water weight as all my clothes fit the same and I haven't noticed a difference. I'd like to take on more hobbies but I just don't have time between work, exercise and planning a wedding. The…

I started 30 DS yesterday as well. Just finished day 2 of it. I've been overweight for a few years now (5'7" & 250 lbs in July of this year). I started walking and eating healthy almost a month ago and am trying to turn my life around, health wise anyway. I figured I wouldn't just jump into the video right off the hop of…

First off, congratulations on your loss! I've never tried pilates but am thinking of looking into it. My biggest food challenge has to be the fact that I just never cared! My favourite thing to do in the evening was stretch out on the couch in front of my TV with chips and pop. I loved it. I miss it a lot but I just FEEL…
