I would really love to continue with this. Thank you!

I'm in the same boat. I've had a hard week. What do we do?

Is there a way to add this thread as a favorite (or similar) within MFP? Thanks!! Just wondering the easiest way to get to it. I just want to add that I'm on a business trip for a couple days and I even brought the dvd, weights & workout clothes to do the 30DS using my laptop in the hotel!

I didn't get a chance to post yesterday...day 4 & 5 are complete! The workout today just flew by...love it!!

I wear a Body Bugg and I tend to burn between 165 - 200 calories.

Are you doing the push ups on your knees? If that is difficult then maybe try doing them against a wall (standing) with your feet out a couple feet from the wall. Then as you build up your strength, move to doing them on something lower...then eventually to the food. OR do them on the floor but set a goal like today I will…

Day 3 week 1 complete. It went pretty well this morning except that my 7 year old son was watching AND critiquing me! Lol! The time goes by pretty quickly!

Thanks for the encouraging words! Day 2 week 1 complete. I took it easy though. I don't have 3 lb weights so I've been using 5 lb weights. However, today I didn't use any weight on some parts just to save my back. On the chest fly part, I might use some 8 lb weights soon (once my back is better). Today I went into the…

Yesterday was my planned day off from 30DS (day 2). Today I planned to do day 2 but I had back pain from a morning exercise class. So, I'm not off to a very good start on this challenge. I might try to do day 2 yet tonight and see how my back feels. Otherwise, I will be doing the 30DS for the next 4 days.

Level 1 day 1 complete! I like the circuit 3 cardio portion the best because I like that it is the cardio from circuit 1 & 2. It is the little things that make me happy...lol. My shoulders are still sore from my workouts this weekend. I don't have any 3 lb weights so I had to use 5 lb weights. I had to take short breaks…

How about stand a couple feet away from the wall and do push ups (standing up) using the wall. That might help build up your upper body strength then you can move to the floor eventually.

I'm Mary. I'm a wife and a mom to 3 kids. I work part time in the IT field. I'm really looking forward to this challenge. I love to workout and have been doing Jazzercise about 4 times a week. I really need to watch my calories/nutrition so I can start dropping the pounds. I tend to snack too much and I feel addicted to…

I'd love to be part of this!

How about get the plain but add some fresh fruit. I like to add diced apples and cinnamon to the Chobani Plain 0%.

I'm wondering the same thing...is it too late to join?

That is pretty neat! Thanks for sharing.

I recommend www.peasandthankyou.com for recipes. The blogger, Mama Pea, is vegan and has some great recipes. She recently wrote a cookbook that I bought and love. She has a recipe for spicy peanut soup that is super good. Recently she put together a meal plan for weight loss that she calls "pealightful plans"…

I just started 30 Day Shred today but exercise tv only had the second level. I did it but took more short breaks. I use to have the dvd but I couldn't find it tonight. I wish exercise tv had all 3 levels! I logged it in my diary as circuit training. How do you log it?

I'm really excited about this too! I'm ready to get serious about losing weight and getting in shape again!

I just rejoined WW about a week ago but I can't seem to get myself motivated to follow it. Now I'm trying to figure out if I will do WW or just track on here.
