Wow, AMAZING results! Shred is where it all started with me too. Takes dedication, that's for sure!! Keep it up!!

40 pounds = a 5-gallon bottle of water or an average human leg Awesome! Anyone missing a leg?

Wow, amazing results in 2 months time! Your hard work and dedication's paying off big time…keep it up!!

Scale number went up for me too. Didn't actually go down until day 23!! From that point on is when I saw all the changes happen…with the scale and tape measurer. Seems to be different for everyone. By day 30, I was down 5lbs from the start and lost 2" each in my waist and hips! Reduced my back flab…yuck…and elevated my…

Awesome progress…what a difference in definition!! Hoping to start lifting soon myself! Good to see others' success with it!!!

I eat 1-2 bananas every day, and it hasn't affected my weight-loss one bit. Like the others said, weigh and log everything you eat and strive to stay within your calories/macros.

Yup, I'm am American living in Portugal now. Been to 30 countries so far, some of them multiple times such as Italy, France, Ireland, Spain, etc… Traveling is my passion…hence my username ;)

Yup, but I made my own. I found 2 sturdy water bottles, about 10" long including caps, and filled them with dirt, litter, and some water until I got to desired weight. Then I painted the outside blue. They work(ed) beautifully. Each bottle weighs in at 3.5lbs. I see many start with 2lbs. Those who do the program multiple…

HA, learned so much reading through this post. I took the quiz and found I'm a mix of meso/endo. I gain weight so incredibly easy, BUT with diet/exercise, I'm able to lose it relatively quickly. Never knew the terms for these body types…interesting stuff! I'll continue to eat clean and do my HIIT workouts...and this time,…

Great work! I see a big difference! And very inspirational, overcoming multiple hurdles…no excuses indeed! Keep it up!!

Hmmm, mine's pretty simple. My name is Jessica and I love to travel. It's my #1 passion. Hence ~travlinjess~

^^This exactly! It's not a diet, it's a lifestyle, and once you've tried clean eating for awhile, you'll feel the benefits from it. Improving your HEALTH means more than dropping a few pounds. Just because you're at a normal weight doesn't mean you have a clean bill of health. For one, I know my high cholesterol has…

Absolutely it works! I'm not saying you'll be any more or less successful than just focusing on staying within your macros. People will debate on this forever. BUT, what I do know, is that I've tried all sorts of methods/diets to lose weight in the last 15 years, and I always stop short and gain the weight back. I'm a…

Same here!!

oooh, I'll try this out! Thanks!!

I've lost…. 36 pounds = a mid-size microwave awesome

My Maine coon kneads her biscuits like crazy on my chest every night before going to sleep. She's over 14lbs! She also likes to plop down on my exercise mat right as I'm about to get into my workout. Like clockwork. Another one of her quirks: she's deathly afraid of our metal clothes rack: bringing it out, hanging clothes…

I used 2 sturdy water bottles, filled with sand/cat litter and some water to desired weight, and then painted them blue. They're a great shape for holding onto and if dropped, won't do quite as much damage as a can. I made them just over 3 pounds each and it's enough for me atm. I've been using them for other Jillian…

Yes, it's a workout by Jillian Michaels and can be accessed on YouTube for free or purchased online for fairly cheap. If you do a search for 30 day shred, or 30DS in the forum, tons of threads will pop up. There are also multiple groups set up for different start dates. Plenty of info and support out there for this…

Many beautiful people with gorgeous eyes! Here are mine...

lol, very clever! No need to worry. Over time, your body will adapt to the increase in fluid and drinking 8 glasses will become an easy habit to maintain (or at least I find), but you will probably continue to pee more than before. Anytime I go anywhere, I typically need to pee upon arrival. My boyfriend jokes that I'm…

Yup, also went to the site and as you scroll, the majority are in a normal-healthy weight range. Not sure where the total number of 6 came from. I still think the general consensus is that the show is not a realistic portrayal for those working towards healthy weight-loss…and in the end, it's a reality show looking for…

Seriously curvacious and bodacious! You have a beautiful figure! WTG on the weight-loss!

A great positive post!! Appearance: My big brown eyes, my big feet (I love and embrace my US size 11 feet!) Personality: confident, outgoing, honest and very open, dependable and trustworthy, passionate, STRONG, and lastly: wise beyond my years. My life, through the good and bad, has shaped me, and I wouldn't change it for…

I have 19-22lbs left to lose! Count me in!!

Firstly, emrogers way to go finishing the program! And I agree, Level 2 sucked and Level 3 was my fave! You look great!! BethanyBBCake, certain moves in Level 1 & Level 3 gave me a nagging pain in my left knee. Level 2 didn't bother my knee for some reason. Anyway, I learned to do alternative moves. Since I've been…
