  • I am setting a goal of 30 miles for February!
  • Trying to go vegan after 16 years of being a vegetarian. I also run...but have not done a half marathon. I was really fatigued and found out my iron levels were quite low. We did not test my B12, but I suspect that was low as well. I started supplements for both and within a week felt much better. Running improved, fatigue…
  • I am a nurse as well. I am just getting back to MFP after recent weight gain due to recent job stress (nursing informatics). Job is improving and I hope the weight goes down. MFP friends help!
  • Vegetarian for 16 years, considering vegan. Back to MFP after recent weight gain (job/stress related). Friend request sent! :)
  • Hi, I am Tera! Relatively new nurse here, been working on a Neuro/MedSurg floor since May 2011. Graduated in Dec 2010 and lost 20 lbs between then and April 2011, but have gained a bit since I started working. Glad to meet you all, looking forward to supporting you and reading suggestions/tips!
  • I am a veggie too (not vegan). I typically go over my protein daily, but I have a protein shake (Whey protein, as I avoid soy as much as I can, but will occasionally have a boca burger or something). Quorn products have a decent amount of protein and are soy free. Good whole grain bread will have about 5 grms of protein,…
  • Never tried tight curves...but I drink at least one premier nutrition high protein shake/day. I think it pretty yummy as far as protein shakes go! 160 cals 30 grms protein 3 grms fat 5 grms carbs 1 grm sugar I get it at Costco, I think it's $23ish for an 18 pack.
  • looks great! thanks for the recipe :)
  • The 30 Day Slimdown is my plan too. I really like the Shred, so I am hoping I will like the other 2 as well!
  • I really like the 30DS as well and plan on getting the other 2 videos soon. There is a routine called Jillian Micheals 30 day slimdown, which is mostly the 30DS with the other two DVD's mixed in, I think it would help you gradually incorporate them into your workouts. I found a copy of the schedule by searching it online.
  • too funny!! One of my fav blogs!
  • If you are getting dehydrated (not good) you can be having similar symptoms and will lower bp. It would be good to have your GP check it out for sure esp if you are having heart palpitations. I don't know what kind of new routine you started, but it would be good to get the ok from the GP for that as well.
  • Day 20 done (L2L10)!! Phew...so ready to give L3 a go!!
  • Day 17 overall (Level 2, Day 7). Felt good, still sweating as much as the first day of level 2 (had no idea it was possible to sweat that much with a 20 min workout!!). Looking forward to continuing to pick up the intensity over the next 3 days before moving on to level 3. Honestly, I really like Jillian, and am pretty…
  • You are rocking the shred!! Great job...almost there! Wahoo!
  • Day 16, L2D6. I missed yesterday, but it is going well, able to up the intensity a bit (some plank jacks and whatever that other jumping one in plank position is, with Natalie!). I love this video and look forward to it everyday!
  • Challenge 1 complete!! Over an hour of shooting hoops with the bf (way funner than dinner!). Fun day, looking forward to tomorrow! oopps...don't know why it posted twice...won't let me delete?
  • Challenge 1 complete!! Over an hour of shooting hoops with the bf (way funner than dinner!). Fun day, looking forward to tomorrow!
  • Current weight.....................172.8 Goal weight (3/14)..............162.8 Pushing myself a little hard for this month for my bday! So yay for 30 day challenges!
  • I'm with ya! That workout feels good, I'm still going along with Anita, but I love it!! Just finished Day 13 (3rd on level 2)
  • I just looked it up, bc I have never heard of it. Interested in what everybody has to say as well!
  • This is a first for me as well (the challenge part)! Daily might be hard to come up with, but I've seen weekly challenges like 3500 exercise cals/week or trying a new class/exercise machine/sport/activity. Nutrition challenges are also a possibility. I know those are kind of basic ...but that's all I have! Looking forward…
  • I'm in...have some goals for my bday at the end of March, so I am wanting to push it a little harder this month!
  • he is...<3 it!! enjoy Level 2!! it was nice to finally change it up!
  • Can I food stalk you too?!? Haha, I want some "clean" ideas/info!
  • Level 2, Day 11...hanging out with Anita most of the time!! omg, i had sweat dripping into my eyes during the last circuit and my bf comes in and asks if I need water...me panting "not yet, almost done" he brings some in and sets it on the table nearest me...i must have been a sight!
  • I recently started JM30DS as well, I use "circuit training" in the database I put it in for 18 minutes. I hope to get a HRM within the next couple of months as that should provide a more accurate numbers for calories burned! Have fun with the shred!!
  • Day 9, Level 1! Feels good, gonna hit it hard tomorrow, as it will be my last day before LEVEL 2 (eeekkkk, not looking forward to reliving the first 3 days of muscle soreness...I don't know if that will acutally happen when I go the the next level, but I'm hoping not!)
  • Finished Day 6, Level 1 today (although, did miss yesterday!). Endurance is up, no longer dragging my butt when we switch circuits! But I need some ideas for push ups. I have been doing modified ones, but really I can't do those anymore (broke my left wrist and than a year later my left elbow, as a preteen), now I have…
