I have very nearly finished the 30 Day Shred. This is the furthest I have ever got before and when I have missed days due to being ill, I have actually missed working out. My boyfriend said he can tell I have lost weight because my clothes are getting too big :-) I need to go shopping! Yippee!

I'm ready to grumble.... a lot at Jillian Michaels. :happy:

"She's got the *kitten* the size of Africa." - a 'friend' in high school in front of everyone, I was 15. "You have lost weight! You are such good girls." To me and a friend by dancing teacher (we were 11 and I had been ill with tonsilitis) "No wonder you are so fat." - a 'friend's dad over a meal when I was at their house…

Fabulous! Well done ladies!! Being poorly has put me back a few days, but I'm back on it and I'm going to finish this!!!

Hiya! I'm Megan. I worked too much in a very stressful and emotionally exhausting job and didnt take care of myself. I went from being a gym bunny to no exercise what so ever and not surprisingly I got fat! I decided I needed to escape and having got a new teaching job at the beginning of the summer, I realised how…

Put a comment and now its vanished and then I tried to edit it, so it had a comment and now I dont know what is happening. Argh!

I got rid of my account about 2 months ago. I found I was comparing my life to other people's successes / families / holidays / "Isnt my life brilliant!" / "I am so blessed!" and I was in touch with a load of people who I never saw and didnt keep in contact with other than the odd 'like' every now and again. BUT... the…

Having people on here definitely helps keep the motivation up! I'm loving the feeling stronger and the realisation when all of a sudden you can do something you couldnt before! I'm up for a September group too as although I finish on te last day of August, I want to do it all again (REALLY??!) but do the Natalie part ALL…

When I went shopping the other day I saw a reflection of myself and realised that my beautiful-hide-all-the-fat-/-muffin-top shirt that's a UK size 16 was far too big and baggy!! That's my first throw away of clothing for being too big this year! I wore a pair of old jeans yesterday for tidying / cleaning and I can take my…

Well done Hun! Half way there is fab!! Keep at it!! x

I've just done Day 12 - I didnt know it was day 18-22 that people see a big difference - that is definitely something to look forward to! I am really enjoying Level 2! (Never thought I'd hear myself say that!)

Because I feel repulsive. I am embarrassed about the way I look now and I am fed up with feeling this way. I want the old me and my old attitude back!

How lovely! Hiking! Nowt like being out there in the fresh air. Have a lovely time!

Day 8 done! AND it is so much easier!! Feeling smug but still cant do a proper push up... :huh:

:laugh: I love the thought of doing it super fast with the Benny Hill music playing in the background! :bigsmile:

I did 2 sessions the other day as I wasnt doing anything other than the 30 day shred but I know I am going to get bored of it if I'm not careful so I had a meander round youtube and found this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MyksLjOWdw0 :bigsmile: Its a Paula Abdul dance thing!! Its so dated, I love it! They are doing a…

I did it for the first time last year (and never actually finished level 2 due to work and got bored with it and found excuses not to do it and and and and and......) thought I was going to die on Day 1 Level 1!!! Couldnt do the cardio, couldnt do the Natalie bit which is apparently the 'easy' option. Day 5 was the turning…

Whoop! I've just done Day 6. Didnt feel motivated, didnt want to do it but I knew I would feel guilty if I didnt do it today. Also managed to do a 30 minute aerobic (low impact but still 30 minutes) as well. Feeling proud! :bigsmile: It definitely is getting easier!

Day 4 done! and 2 hours of gardening Im going to be super healthy in no time!! :happy:

I've just done day 3 of Level 1. My legs hurt but it does seem to be getting a bit easier. Started it before and loved the results but never got to Level 3.... this time I am determined to get to the end! Fed up of being fat!!

Wow! What a difference!! You have done so well and I love your dress in the 2nd photo!! There are a load of us doing the 30 Day Shred if you want to join - its brilliant! You can get it all on youtube and there are loads of success stories on here. Keep smiling and remember how far you have come because you look great!

I'm doing it again!! Just done day 2 of 30 Day Shred. Did it back in May / June but only to half way through Level 2 then I stupidly let work get in the way and didnt finish it... it was really good and I did see a big difference!

1 stone. Thats all I want to lose by Christmas and I will be a very happy Christmas Elf!

Yup, I'm in! Have sent you a friends request too.

Fabulous news!! A whole new healthier you and thats not a little thing either!! Congratulations! :smile:

Well done! There is a definite difference!!! It is hard to keep going at times but its obviously paying off! :smile:

Its 10:52am here in the UK! Good Morning!! :smile:

Oh my goodness that made me laugh! :happy: Congratulations on feeling fabulous enough to wear what you want to. Hope you both have fun!

Thanks for your input everyone! Last weekend I tried to do extra and could barely walk the next day! I am seriously unfit (but getting fitter!!)

I've just done day 9! Definitely easier (and I am pushing myself more as well although I am a long way off the harder version I was able to do all of the easier one today without modifying it further!)
