Wow ladies!! You all have really impressed me with your dedication. Keep it up!!! I don't know if I'll be shredding today :( My husband is home and were trying to play catch up. Plus I just got my eyelashes done and can't get them wet for 24 hours. Hmmm. Maybe I can go on a run tonight or shred and not shower after...…

Done with D6L1... Side lunges, so much easier today. I'm using 5lb weights and today I was able to make it through without struggling. YAY!!! I still do girl push ups. I'm not sure I can do regular ones. What do you all do on the push ups? And if you do reg ones, when did you start? Where you only able to do a few? TIA :)

I agree with vsetter. If your nursing the weight may stay on til you quit. My Dr. says it's hormones. I'm in the same boat. Really trying to get my body back after baby #5. Add me as a friend if you'd like :)

Ready to do day D6L1. Wondering if I should go to L2 today. Yesterday the side lunges didn't kill me, like they usually do. Is it better to do L1 10 days before going to L2? I took my measurements at the start of this. But I'm pretty sure I haven't gotten any results yet. I'll wait to do my finishing measurements when I…

Finished D3 yesterday. My knee was killing me this morning. I swear its the side lunges. Will be getting onto D4 pretty quick. Great Job Shredders!!

I'm a stay at home mom too. I was so happy to see this thread. As I was wondering the same thing. I usually go with some kind of sandwhich. Because I don't like to cook 3 meals a day (mostly because I don't want to clean up 3 meals in a day)LOL. I really like the natural peanut butter on wheat toast with raw honey (we have…

Got woken up too early.. Now drinking a few cups of coffee hoping to get the energy to do day 3 of the shred.. Already talking friend IRL to start doing it. To help keep me accountable. Let's do this!! :)

Finished my 2nd day of the 30DS!!! YAY!! :)

I just started today. I gotta get some motivation. As Jillian says let's "kick our own @$$" hahaha :)

Grapefruits contain the wonderful anti-inflammatory and skin-cleaning enzyme bromelain. Grapefruits are the mildest citrus fruit in acid-content, yet thay retain the strong antiseptic, mucus-dissolving properties found in all citrus fruits. They are also the mild in sugar content, making them gentle on the pancreas as well…

Just happened to read about this one of my websites. I'll try to post the link. It said grapefruit is GREAT for helping smooth out cellulite. They said eat it, juice it. I probably wouldn't drink grapefruit juice from the stores because of sugar. But you could squeeze your own and put some splenda in it. They said it takes…

I've noticed that sometimes I'll think I'm hungry. But really I'm just thirsty. I usually crave something sweet when I'm thirsty. Been trying to drink water first. If that doesn't stop the craving. Then I add some crystal light and its been helping the cravings.

I just got carded at the supermarket the other day. I was wondering if the clerk was just trying to be nice :tongue: When you look at kids driving and think they can't be older than 12.

Wow!!! You look amazing. Hoping I can work as hard as you did so I can see the same results.. Way to go :)

I'm bumping this for my sister. :)

Good luck to all of you with races coming up!! HM are a BLAST!! The only warning I have to give is they are ADDICTING! Enjoy every minute :) I'm starting my training for a full marathon next year. I'm planning on doing a couple HM to get me prepared. It's SO motivating seeing all you runners :)

LMAO!! I'm so doing this tomorrow. :laugh:

I've tried a few recipes from this website. I have 4 kids eating the dinners. They've liked everything I've tried especially the chicken rollatini with spinach. It's www.skinnytaste.com.

Question.. Do you only count exercise calories? (that's all I usually count) Or does cleaning the house ect count? Just planning my day :)

This happened to me after my 3rd he was just over a year old. It was my birthday. My husband took me to Kohl's to buy me some clothes for my b-day. After trying on clothes and feeling like crap. The clerk asked if I was pregnant and what I was having. I just looked at my husband and walked out. Cried all the way home. Like…

I'm in!!! I don't know if I'll lose 10 lbs but I'm gonna burn 30,000 cals. YAY!! Looks like I'll be hitting the gym tomorrow :wink:

I KNOW it'll change my sex life for the better. When I was 138 I felt so good about myself, so sexy. I wanted it ALL the time. Plus I had more energy. Can't wait to get there again!! :)

ANY Victoria Secret model.. It's a good thing I don't. Cuz I would walk around naked or in a bikini ALL the time..

Yes! I'm on here ALL the time. :embarassed:

Hi, I'm also a stay at home mom. I've got 5 kiddo's ages 11,8,5,3, and 4 months. My husband is a pilot so he is gone ALL the time. In a month he's home maybe 8- 10 days. It's hard to find a baby sitter to watch the kids while I go to the gym or on a run. When the baby get's older I'll be able to leave her with my oldest. I…

I like the stepper. Not sure if it would bother your toe. If I were you I'd do squats with weights. Lunges.Do some core exercises with the medicine ball. You could even do girl push ups and some upper body machines. I do this when I feel like I need more than just running. It works up a REALLY good sweat. Especially if you…

Honestly- I haven't been on here very long. I don't think I have any guy friends. And don't really know what the girls that I'm friends with look like. There are alot of people on here that I'd like to become friends with. Not because they are attarctive but because they are hilarious. And I always like a good laugh.…

I did this, being small framed and 5'9 ideal would be 150- 165. When I lost weight after my 4th. I got to 138 and still could have lost a few pounds. I felt GREAT. I wasn't too skinny. In my profile pic. I was 150. At least it makes the ideal weight seem more easily attainable.

We all have days like this. I heard somewhere "just own it and move on". So yes you ate too much chocolate. Oh well tomorrow you won't. Don't let it be an excuse to quit. You can do it!! Just keep trying :)
