I'm excited too! I have 8 days left of 30DS. I agree for some reason 2 was harder for me than 3 is!

Thanks for the support! Congrats on 50 lbs. Barb!! Same here with laundry although my usual laundry days are M & F the snow days piling up here keep me behind. Blah. Getting ready to do the 30 Day Shred while my son naps. Have a great day ladies!

We are the same starting weight and height, I put my goal in to lose 2 lbs a week and 20 minutes of exercise a day and my calorie intake is 1380. That is creating a 1000 calorie deficit in my daily intake, so over the week that is -7000 calories which is 2 lbs per week. Then if you exercise daily, you will burn calories so…

So I made is to a 10 lb. loss!! We have had issues with our families the last year or two. We feel like grandparents should (at least sometimes) ask to see their grandchildren instead of us always asking them to "watch" them. We don't think that grandparents should be babysitters but our parents NEVER ask to see them. Both…

Honestly, it will be hard to start when you lack the motivation but I suggest forcing yourself to stay on track for a week by tracking your food and doing the boring exercise DVD. You will start to feel better about yourself and that will motivate you to keep going. I am doing the Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred and it…

Amazing! Great job!

Congrats! I hope I start seeing those kind of results soon. :)

I am thinking every 30 days.

Congrats! I hope to be running 3 miles before summer! Great victory.

Thanks guys. The Slimdown looks great. I think I'll do that at some point after I get those DVD's! My sister has the BL Bootcamp so I think I am going to borrow that and try to increase my endurance, starts with 20 min and ends with a 45 min workout. Thank you guys for the suggestions. I am looking them up!

I agree. I have those 32 oz hospital cups I use although most of my straws are missing. I've had 64 oz already today, I'll probably have 96 oz total today.

Thanks guys, looks like I'll be shopping on Amazon today. Don't be fooled, I follow the modified version (Anita) already! :)

Hi all, Hoping it's okay if I join in here? I am a SAHM for the last 2 1/2 years. I have a 9 y.o. daughter and a 2 1/2 year old son. I found MFP last year after I got my iPhone but really just started using it 20 days ago. I weigh in on Wednesday and my goal is to take measurements every 15 days for extra motivation. Today…

I weigh weekly too. I just decided today that I am literally going to put the scale away after my weekly weigh-in so I stay off of the scale. I really want to focus on being healthy, not how much the scale says every day. I also only enter once a week, so right now I know I have lost 3 more pounds but I won't enter it…

I have a cold/sinus issue right now, it's been around 2 days and I have forced myself to do the 30DS through it. I did have to modify some of the moves because jumping was killing my head but I did it and felt better afterward. I didn't have a fever though and this is the first time I have really stuck with something so…

I agree. It is so motivating to see so many success stories!

Thanks guys! So supportive, I love this site! I have been using it on my phone only, so glad I checked out the forums!

Congrats! I'd love to hear what you are doing? Like how many calories you are taking in, if you eat your excercise calories most days and how many days/minutes you exercise a week? Sorry for all the questions, I am new to the forum and just started really tracking 1/19/11. I am the same height and starting weight as you. I…

I am on day 8 of the 30DS and am having a bit of anxiety of moving to Level 2 on Saturday. I just got to the part where I can walk again. I have a lot of weight to lose but I think I have already lost 5 of the 70 I'd like to lose. I measured on day 4 and can't wait to measure again on day 15. I am trying hard to stay off…
