My best friends does photography, I want to get sexy boudoir photos done for a christmas gift for my hubby. I also REALLY want to wear short-shorts.

@ ALW65 - go to Lilyslim.com and you can create any kind of counter you like. just discovered it and love it! @ JustJenn419 - every day we will do this. of course you don't HAVE to, but for myself, I know if I give myself an inch, I take a mile. My goal is to do it evey day for 30 days. Like Jillian says "Don't phone it…

So what is everyone looking forward to most from doing the SHRED? Mine would be losing most of the back fat that appears when i turn a certain way, or have my bra too tight. LOL I immagine this wokout, with all the arm workouts, will help that.

@ k_ewilliams - Well personally I don't think 20 minutes is long enough (is it 20 minutes?) I have been doing 45 minutes of p90x - Cardio X. every couple days. I think i am going to incorporate other kinds of workouts if i have the time. BUT I will stick to the Shred every day.…

hey number one, log EVERYTHING you eat and drink. I like to add everything i plan to eat that day ahead of time. Gives me an idea of what I need to adjust. Another thing that got me motivated was reading the success stories. i have a girl on my friends list when i first joined last year, then i just stopped MFP, and when i…

yaay! tomorrow is the day! so measure what ever you like i will include arms, thighs, chest, hips and waist. I am taking a photo today and every 10 days. I will post them when i am done the 30 days (lol I hope) My weights are 2 or 3lbs... i dont remember. I love that we have all these people doing it together. we can even…

yes i think the 10 days on each level is good. I look forward to the pain. lol

@marsts - I have passes to my gym too. I will probably speed walk on the tred mill as well 2 times a week. @hairhacker - You will be able to do it. It's tough, I have tried it a bit a while ago. But I know it is worth it. Plus if we all stick to it and tell eachother our progress it will motivate us to keep going.…

<28 (yikes!) mom. Trying to turn my weightloss journey into a lifestyle. I'm always looking for friends to motivate eachother. Starting the 30 Day Shred monday. i'll add you, and a few of you others :)

welcome :) this is a great place to be. Lots of support and fun challenges. I will add you as a friend and we can motivate eachother.

welcome. I have been using this site for 3 weeks and have lost 9 lbs so far. I will add you as a friend and we can keep eachother motivated. :)

Great! as long as there is a few people. I will also take my measurements tomorrow... maybe a picture... yikes... will think about that one. lol.

amazing story! You must be so proud. Good job!!

I am on a 1200 cal diet. I thought it was going to be tough but it really isn't at all. I am on week three and I am rarely hungry anymore. Here is what I changed. I take a multi vitamin pack every day. I think this has helped with my cravings because I am finally getting what my body needs. Almost every morning I have a…

I agree, thin crust and veggies. And WATER ONLY! Dont drink your calories! Have fun and enjoy.... mmmm, pizza

I was told GREEN tea is Great for you and can count it as water. Makes you pee so much too. my girlfriend needed to lose some weight quick for a wedding and drank green tea 5 times a day for a week and lost 8 lbs of water weight. Here is a blurb taken from Wikipedia : "A study performed at the Queen Margaret University,…

wow i have never heard that before. I LOVE water. i drink nothing else. I even wake up during the night and have some. I never really even considered people felt different. LOL. I usually only get about 5-7 glasses these days because the time flies by, but when i worked in an office i drank at LEAST 10 glasses. I even…

i am 5'5 160lbs size 10 dress.

hm thanks. I was wondering this too. My friends gave me the Brazillian Butt Lift discs but I haven't even looked at them.

bump. making something tonight. will post recipe, picture and calories if it's any giid.

:( I got shin splints doing Plyometrics P90X... SO I can't run at the moment. totally bummed. I have just been doing pilates till my shin is 100%. I really hope this isn't an ongoing thing. I think I will get some nice new running shoes this weekend.

Well I am like Frank the Tank, but with food. It just tastes so good when it hits my lips! LOL.

Pesto Pita Pizza. mmmm... A staple in our home a whole whete pita 2 Tbsp of pesto sauce crumbled feta left over chicken (or not?) diced tomato uaually a whole pita is anywhere between 370-550 calories depending on what i add sometimes i add a few chopped up marinated artichoke hearts if i can spare the calories. they are…

Congratulations!! I can not believe the change in such a short time. Very Inspirational. My husband works every friday night delivering Pizza and they let him bring home a free one after every shift. So there I am, every Friday at midnight eating a custom pizza... sigh... last friday was the first friday i made him NOT…

Sardis, BC!

you should probably take your measurements. Sometimes going by weight could be discouraging because you gain muscle but are actually losing inches. I know last year I only lost 5 lbs but noticed my pants were falling off.

wow!! congratulations!! you look great!

Glad to hear. I really want to try it.

WOW thats amazing!!!

thanks Stacey. I have sabotagers in my life as well. thats usually what ends up putting a stop to my good lifestyle. My husband being one of them. :( But your word are encouraging.
