I'm 5'7" 162 lbs GW 145 I'm married 6 years and have a sweet 2 y/o girl. I work as a daycare provider and get my workout when ever I can, Usually in the evening.

Well then I hope it's not a "true plateau" ! ... I suppose my interpretation of plateau is there's been no change when I've expected changes.

It's just disheartening when you're "starving" yourself and MFP says you'll lose 2 lbs a week doing this and then nothing happens. I'll just keep on keeping on. :)

I use an electronic food scale and measuring utensils for everything I eat. I also use a HRM when I exercise to I log my calories accurately. I do usually eat back my calories though because everything I've read about that is super controversial and I have typically seen to eat them back. ugh. I guess I just wish the scale…

Thanks!

It's been a little over a month since I started. I've been logging 36 days.

15 days...

Today I'll be doing day 9!! I can't hardly believe I've made it this far! Yesterday I really had to push myself to do it though. I'm kind of dreading level 2 but it will be good for me. I measure tomorrow! So exciting :smiley:

Well I'm on day 7 but no one has posted since it started, I'm here if you want to get started though :)

day 6 done! I didn't sleep much last night so it's going to be hard to fit in my missed work out, but I'm gonna take a nap with my daughter and then we'll see if I have the energy to pull it through.

I barely fit in day 4 yesterday and I'm not gonna fit in day 5 because it's been crazy being Easter and all but day six is going to happen early tomorrow! Maybe I'll do it twice to make up for today?

Phew, I did it. Day 3 in the books. How about you?

Ok, guys. How are you doing? I'm super sore! Especially my legs, I'm going to have a hard time pushing through today.

It is.

Glad to have you. :)

If you only want to do weight you can but theres a good chance you could loose inches and not as much weight so I like to measure to keep myself encouraged. :)

Awesome. I think it's ok if we're all a day or two different. I'm glad to have some others joining me I hope we all can stick to it!

Yes! I'm the same way... Post your stats if you want and get started. I finished day 2 this morning and am sore! Being behind one day won't hurt though.

Awesome! Glad you decided to join! :)

One trick i learned from a friend was to pour your 2 tbsp into a side container and dip your fork in the ranch before you stab your lettuce, that way you still get your ranch but you eat much less of it.

I would eat a minimum of 2000 calories, but honestly it sucks but you probably should just wait until you're done nursing to count calories, just eat healthy and when you're hungry and exercise and weight should come off.

http://www.livestrong.com/article/238020-how-to-convert-pedometer-steps-to-calories/ I used this site to get an idea of how many calories I burn per steps.

Also, make sure you're weighing yourself in the same circumstances everyday, ie. first thing in the morning before you've eaten, and naked.

I have this problem too, especially because i have small ears.. I use the buds that have the marshmellow covers.. they're similar to earplugs and when you stick them i they form to your ears.

Great job!... I'm pretty much failing at this challenge :( But you keep up the good work

Oh, I thought everyone had bailed on me since no one was writing on the new topic with the new chart! lol I also have been slacking big time!. With a lot of excuses :S

http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/362902-30-day-shred-challege-pt-2-closed-grp Ok, here's the new chart, looks like we lost a few people :( .. but all you who are still in ROCK!

anybody else still in this and gonna give me their new numbers???? as a side note... l2d2 was hard tonight! those side twist ab things!

It's looking good guys! Remember not to get too discouraged about small amounts of losses, it's only been 10 days, if we can just keep it up know we will have great results! and from alot of the weigh in numbers I've recieved, WOW ladies! I still have a few people I haven't received new numbers from, so please give me that…

I did level 2 one day because i had skipped a day... it's not that hard and the walking pushups are nice..( i think ) .. and we all will weigh in **wednesday** no matter what day you're actually on, just so everyone is on the same page and i can get the spreadsheet made and posted sooner.
