Wow incredible results! Did you change your diet as well or just stick with the routine? I have tried the 30 Day Shred several times and always end up bored with it. I did do Ripped in 30 though and stuck with it for the full 30 days. Didn't take any pics, but currently doing 6 week 6 pack 3 days a week. Fabulous job!

See profile pic. I also was going for something different so I got a tint of red in with highlights.

Thank you I needed to hear this today! I am giving up on the darn scale and putting it away for a month!

Very motivating to hear from all of you! I am not there yet but eventually this is the route I would like to take. I am starting out with small steps going to get my spin/indoor cycling certificate this month. From there I hope to slowly work my way into working at a gym and teaching other classes, then eventually becoming…

I honestly see nothing wrong with it! I guess it just depends on how you were raised. I can remember several times growing up where my mom would go down to our little local store on the weekends in her pj's to grab something for breakfast. Every now and again when we are running late in the mornings I will take my kids to…

I didn't have 80lbs to loose, but this is very inspiring! Thank you for the post!

Reached my first goal of 145. Ultimate goal is 135 but right now not focusing on the scale more less trying to lower my body fat %.

Hang out

So is there a device you can wear all day that will tell you your total calories burned through out the day? Or is a HRM the best bet? I am wanting to get an accurate count on calories burned while working out but also would like to know total calories burned through out the day. The fit bit is just like a pedometer right?…

My moms Dr had her do basically a gluten free diet for 30 days so i joined her minus a few cheat days here and there. I saw absolutely no changes in my belly whatsoever, so I truely beleive whole grains and wheat are only bad for you if you have an intollerance to them. Just MPO!

Yes it does require a monthly fee which I also was unaware of. I had asked my Dad for one for Christmas and he looked into them. Once he found out it required a monthly fee on top of actually buying it he decided not to get it. So I am still trying to figure out what to get that will be a good way to track calories burned…

Thanks for the info! Bet you were a happy guy today! :wink:

31 here!

The belly!

I have the 5 mile walk video and when I feel I need a lighter workout I will do it, and I just log it as walking whichever pace. The 1 mile is a 15 min mile which equals 4mph walk. The 3 mile is a 12 min mile which equals 5mph, etc.

OMG this is hilarious and so true!

It is normal to go up when staring any new program. I didn't loose a whole lot of weight when doing Insanity, but I did loose a lot of inches! When I did loose the weight most of it was in the second month. Just be patient and keep up with it. I'm sure you will see great results in the end.

I survived the cycle/pump class today! The instructor was tough on us today and a part of me wanted to quit half way through the pump part but I didn't! I stuck it out till the end!

I get mine at Kohls! They have a brand called Tek Gear that is basically just a cheaper brand name but is just like the nike dry fit. Also JC Penny has a cheaper brand as well that seem to work just fine! I'm a bargain shopper, but not a wal mart shopper. :)

I have tried to do both Insanity and Chalean at the same time one in the morning one at night and it has never worked for me. I just get too tired from doing both. I then started doing every other day with Insanity one day and Chalean the next. That seemed to work for me but I didn't feel I was getting in enough cradio so…

I just joined the Y and tried a new class today that I have never done before at any other gym. The whole room was filled with people that go on a regular basis and the instructor knew them all by name. I introduced myself to her and told her I was a new member and once the class started she introduced me to the whole…

Jillian Michaels has a kick boxing dvd that's only $10 it has 3 different 20 minute workouts on it.

How do you log Body pump? I am currently doing a 3 day trial at the Y and they have it there. Thinking about trying it!

Thank you for posting! This is exactly what I needed to hear today!

I very rarely reply on the boards, but here is my two scents on the body by vi thing. My best friend recently got suckered into it and became a rep. She has been trying to get me to buy it and I just don't get it! She has lost 5lbs in a month with it and says she has a lot more energy ok that's great and all, but why not…

That's what I am using also other than in the warm up I use 8lb. I didn't take before pics, but now I'm starting think I should have!

Just curious what size weights are you using? I am in week 3 of the push phase and noticing a change in my biceps and triceps, but not much anywhere else! P.S. you look fabulous!

Yes Insanity does work!! I have done it 2 times full rounds missing just a few days, and I will say my first round I lost 2 1/4 inches in my waiste, and the second time I lost more, but didn't take measurements. I'm getting ready to start it again to get ready for summer! If you do decide to get it, just beware, it is…
