OMG count me in! I sooo need the support. I was planning on switching my workouts to tues, thur, sat cardio and wed, fri strength (my rest days are sun, mon when hubby is home) so this is GREAT timing thank you!

thanks everyone! I appreciate the links!

thanks for this. i always wondered about it. I always assumed it was too little cardio to lose a lot of weight. i attempted adding in cardio the last time I did it, but I dont have enough time daily to do 30ds for 20 min then cardio for another 20-30 min I workout 5x a week. I may alternate 30ds and cardio starting next…

Did day 4 today. DS woke me up around 4am and I thought it was a good idea to get the workout over with. not so good. I was just too tired. plus he started fussing in hte playpen. I wasnt able to finish it today. and honestly, IDK if I will. I will be too dang tired!

I like to measure around the fat, so that would be the 35 in for you. that way I can accurately see how much fat is lost. does htat make sense?

IDK about this time around, cause I'm eating waaay more than the 1st time I did 30DS, but the 1st time, I started losing more. yes, everyone is going to be different. but I think I was mainly doing cardio before and adding in the weights really boosted my metabolism and helped me lose more. if you are going to do it, take…

ooh me! me! I just started again today. I was planning on working out 5x a week and just doing each level for a week and them moving on to Ripped. I have done 30DS before but really need to get back in it. I have been so lazy lately and eating waaaay too much

Posting so I can find this thread again.

we do soy. how do you make it? I tried it before but it was just weird.

thanks but I can't have milk products

thanks. part of it is cause wheat bothers him, the other is because I dont want to eat as much grainy carbs in general. I tell myself to eat an apple instead but I'd rather eat a sandwich

very interesting thread. I was doing my best to eat paleo, bascically limiting carbs and sugar to those found in fruit. I lost weight FAST. but it was not sustainable for me. I was constantly hungry and tired. Then I just needed to eat carbs and crap again and totally binged. I'm now 3 lbs more than I was at my lowest when…

I tell myself I want to do this, but then I end up eating something not as good for me :(

thanks everyone. I've decided to scratch the paleo thing because it's just not sustainable for me. I am going to go back to eating more good carbs, oatmeal for breakfast and maybe a few bites of brown rice IF! I want to eat some rice.

do you find Insanity helping more with the tummy area than 30ds? thats my problem area after 2 c-sections.

really? insanity is hader than P90x? hmmm, maybe I should look more into it then. It just takes up a lot more time than I dont think I have right now

thank you

thanks:smooched:

thanks everyone! I guess I have been eating more carbs and I've been baking more lately. Is brown rice and brown bread ok? I would also love more protein snack ideas. meals aren't too hard, I just dont eat rice. it's snacks thats hard for me. PLus my son was sensative to soy and dairy. I'm slowly incorporating dairy back…

this thread was absolutely enlightening. I have a bag of white rice and a bag of brown and compared the 2 labels. OMG! all this time I've been eating brown rice cause I thought it was better. I guess it's more about no rice vs rice than brown vs white right?

I used to eat this all the time! I would add raisins. tastes like a cookie. or even some jelly, sounds weird but I love PB & J sandwiches so why not!

thanks deanmarino and 50Fit for the rec. those look like what I'm looking for. Hubby is a big guy but he's also really strong.

to clarify, the bands would be more for him than me. I prefer to do Insanity. Though I dont mind trying P90X eventually.

Thanks! He's almost 300 pounds so I dont trust a pressure mount bar (we rent so this is not our apartment!) The doors go all the way up so there is no ledge at all to hang a pull up bar. Do you have any recommendations for bands I can buy? I would definitely need it for the weights and pull bar portions

toooooootally forgot to weigh in. I didnt get my weight this morning but yesterday I was about 143.4. We had a family BBQ last night and we will probably have another on Wednesday so this week is not going to be good. I"m still doing 30DS level 2 this week. I dont like to exercise when hubby is home and he took tomorow off…

Hi all. I'm sorry I've been MIA. Just been busy and in a funk. IDK. I've been eating ok...not super bad but not the best. not sure what I weighed on monday, but today I'm 143.4. Not a huge loss but going in the right direction. I've been doing 30DS level 2 this week and I really like it. I just picked up a copy of Insanity…

I agree with this. She will not starve herself. At night when she tells you her tummy hurts, offer the same thing you offered for dinner. Keep offering it. she will eventually eat. or she will go to bed hungry, but it will most likely be the last time she does it. right now she knows mommy will eventually give in to her.…

tnx! this was awesome. It was good to see I was losing something. the scale is moving so slowly. It's motivating to know I'm losing in inches at least

so, so far it looks like we're a bunch of mommies :)
