  • Hi, I just found this thread and I would love to join the challenge. This will motivate me to include various workouts in my routine to meet the 100 mile goal. 3 miles for today!
  • Yep, I feel the burn. I'm hangin in there. Have a great day! On day 4, level 1.
  • Just finished day 2. I wear a heart monitor and MFP calories burned is pretty close to accurate for logging the exercise as circuit training. Good luck Ladies!!
  • I just completed Day 1.
  • I plan to start today as well. This will be my second time doing it and the results are well worth it.
  • Good job so far, you are doing awesome. I am working on losing my baby weight as well. I started with Zumba classes but used 30 Day Shred as well. It really toned me and I am stronger. I used 5 pound weights for the entire DVD. I think it you were increasing weight sizes throughout the DVD then you would gain muscle mass.…
  • I had problems with my knees as well with the lunges. I follow Anita for lunges and squats by not going as deep into the move. It helped. Also, instead of stepping forward with my lunge I always step backwards (reverse lunge). An alternative to a lunge is to step up on a chair/step and back down. That took all the pressure…
  • Count me in again. I am behind the curve starting 4 days late but I will up my miles to 65 for May.
  • I'm still here. I had a sick daughter since Saturday so I haven't moved my butt at all. I plan to wrap up by Friday though.
  • I am a snacker, I must have them. At work I chew gum if I want a snack too close after eating breakfast or lunch. I bring my snacks to work to stay away from the vending machines. I usually snack on pretzels, cheese and 2 fruits at work. When I get home I must have a snack every night after my daughter goes to bed. Using…
  • Thanks SoldierDad. The same goes for you, your spirit is remarkable and your words are inspiring. Your family and all the MFPers are lucky to have you in our lives. Be blessed.
  • Thanks, I will check it out. I recently downloaded Nike Training Club and it sounds similar but you cannot customize as much.
  • I skipped last night because I decided to clean the house instead but I am determined to finish on Sunday. Don't give up ladies, push through this.
  • Let's go ladies. We can all finish the levels we are on. I completed L3D7 last night. I convinced my sister in law to get 30DS and she just started.
  • Count me in. I completed L3D6 last night.
  • Well, no 30DS for me last night. We got home later than usual and then a neighbor stopped by. By the time she left it was time to give my daughter a bath for her to go to bed. I am having all sorts of cravings right now so I could have used the extra calorie burn but oh well. Today is another day. Thanks for the motivation…
  • We won't disown you superhippiechip :smile: Last week was rough on me as well. I had the motivation on Friday to keep it moving and get re-energized but instead I watched a movie and relaxed (much needed relaxation). I only did 30DS on Saturday this weekend. Yesterday I should have completed the program but instead Friday…
  • I skipped 30DS last night because I went to a NBA playoff game, didn't get back in until late. I am back on track though. I plan to go strong throughout the weekend since I missed 3 days this week. L3D5 tonight. Have a good weekend.
  • I will add you. Welcome to MFP.
  • Hi Ladies, I completed L3D4 last night. I cannot wait to finish this DVD. If you get Shape Magazine, Jillian is on the cover and she has 5 of her moves from Ripped in 30 DVD. She said it is a two minute workout. So that is an alternate to her working your butt off but not listening to her voice :wink: Usually www.shape.com…
  • I completed L3D3 last night. The plank rows kicked my butt last night. I was thinking of getting another Jillian DVD and trying that; Banish Fat or No More Trouble Zones. Maybe alternating days with 30DS or something. Do either of you have an iPhone or iPod Touch? I downloaded an app called Nike Training Club. They have…
  • Migraines are the worst. I used to get them as a teenager. Good luck at your doctor appt. I have missed two days in a row. I had a family emergency on Sunday and yesterday I was not in the mood to workout. I made up my own circuit for 5 mins (jumping jacks, squats, jumping jacks, push ups and crunches), took a shower and…
  • Great results superhippiechik!!!! I agree that the gain in inches is muscle, especially since you bike to work. That is awesome. My weakness is ice cream and snacks. I am like a kid. I need my snacks. I've done good with choosing healthy one but if I indulge in ice cream it's the real deal. I stick to a half cup though; to…
  • Completed L3D1 tonight. I have mixed feelings. I think they are great moves but I have to modify (follow Anita) because all the jumping is rough on my knees. I did not get as good as a workout modifying over half of level 3. I shouldn't be so hard on myself considering this is only Day 1...but I think I will do more cardio…
  • 1.5 miles in a parade volunteering with the neighborhood school Kindergarten class. I nice way to get in a miles. Updated ticker. Halfway there. :smile:
