I'm just south of Austin :)

I take my medicine before bed at night so that nothing interferes with it being absorbed. Since doing that I am able to take my multivitamin late morning. I've been stalling for quite some time, but then I started weighing my food and it has made a HUGE difference! I lost 2lbs this week! I have also found that I do better…

So here's my final results. The only level I wasn't consistent with was L3. I do the workout while my kids are napping and there was just too much jumping in it. So I have been doing my elliptical plus a lot of the strength/ab moves for 30-45 mins for the last 5 days of level 3. Starting weight - 180 Bust - 41 inches…

Just finished L3 Day 3!! I skipped yesterday and did my own strength/resistance exercises. There is a lot of jumping in L3 and I do it while my kids are napping so I've been holding back a little as not to wake them. Lol Today my kids are out of the house and I finally got a good workout in for L3! I also did the advanced…

Level 3 Day 2 done! I'm going to be honest, I don't think level 3 is that bad. ((don't kill me!)) I don't seem to burn as many calories, I don't seem to have to work as hard (minus a few moves). Maybe that's because with some of the moves, the advanced is too difficult, but the beginner is too easy? I just don't feel like…

I finished level 3 day 1. I really didn't want to. I would rather sit around feeling sorry for myself. Lol I didn't have much energy in it, but I still did it, which I think is better than skipping it.

After level 2: Weight: 178 (-4lbs) Bust: 40 (-1 :( ) Underbust: 35 (same) Waist (smallest): 37 (same) At belly button: 42.5 (same) Hips: 42.5 (same) Around butt: 44 (same) Mid thigh: 21 (-.5) Above knee: 17.5 (-1) Mid calf: 14 (-.5) Bicep: 13 (-.5) So.. minus 10.5" and 4lbs so far

Starting Level 3 today. I've had a lot of personal things going on so I've fallen off the wagon the last couple of days.. Will update my measurements/weight on the other post and then get my butt back in gear.

I skipped today. I went to the gym and did a lot of cardio as well as "lunch crunch" which is 15 minutes of nothing but ab work. Needless to say, I am far too exhausted to do 30DS tonight.

Alicia- Congrats on finishing level 2! I just finished day 6! I really didn't feel like doing shred today as I had a long day.. But I managed to get in a walk and 30DS so I am feeling pretty good about myself. I am ready for 30DS to be over with, but I didn't come this far to quit! This is a very stressful week for me, but…

Yes! I feel so much stronger doing some of the moves, but others I am ex-haus-ted. I still hate the plank twists, but I feel slightly better at squat thrusts. I feel better at the walk-out pushups too..but I also feel myself wanting to drop to my knees and stand up instead of walking it back up. A lot of it is mind over…

Day 5 done! Woohoo! I was feeling really strong today and then I had to pick up my stout 32lb toddler immediately upon finishing my workout and felt like I could barely hold him. My arms were like jello. Lol So excited to be halfway done!

Just finished day 4! Feeling stronger today! The ab moves are still intense, but my shoulders/arms hold up a lot better than they used to. I still hate the chair squats with a V raise. My right arm makes this clicking noise.. and though it is not painful, I highly doubt it is normal. I tend to do them until I feel it and…

Hang in there! It gets better! I don't ever remember level 2 feeling this hard for me in the past. I have been utterly exhausted after level 2 this time around. Yesterday I did day 3, and I could already feel myself not struggling as much. Remember every day you do 30DS the closer you will be to getting it done. Every day…

I'm a SAHM with a 3 year old, almost 2 year old, and 10 month old. I workout when the kids are napping, but am usually limited to about 30 minutes so I do DVDs like 30 Day Shred. Other than that I also like to take the kids for a walk when I can, or even just play outside with them. Anything that keeps me moving! I am a…

Thank you! :) I definitely intend to finish, regardless of the weird up and down roller coaster with my weight.

I totally get this. Last night and today I feel SO bloated. I'm thinking it's because the muscles in my lower abdomen are repairing. I've had 3 kids in the last 3 years.. So my muscles are not exactly strong yet.

Just finished level 2 day 3! Its beginning to feel easier! I must say the part I hate the most is getting up and down off the floor.. Sad, but true.

See, I have been taking measurements and I have lost 7"s total from various places. So I am a little confused by the weight gain, unless it's possibly water weight from my body composition changing and adding lean muscle? However, I usually do walk more than I have been. Lately I've just been doing 30DS on its own.

Just finished Level 2 day 3. Losing a little bit of steam.... But hopefully it's just because I am feeling lazy today.

I was literally just getting on to post something similar. I just finished level 2 day 3 and I was thinking how bored I was beginning to get. I play my own music while I do 30DS and it helps a little

So funny, me too! This is the first time post-baby that I won't be getting pregnant immediately. I have 3 kids: 3, almost 2, and almost 1. I have been trying to lose weight for months. At first it came easily, but I haven't lost weight for a few months. I am, however, losing inches. So I am hopeful that once I wean it will…

Done with day 2! I skipped yesterday and did pilates.

Level 2 day 1, done. I don't remember level 2 being this hard! My arms are feeling it! A nice change from level 1 which was feeling pretty easy.

After level 1: Weight: 182, up 2lbs but possibly due to hormones so won't fret Bust: 41 (same) Underbust: 35 (-1") Waist (smallest): 37 (same) At belly button: 42.5 (-1.5") Hips: 42.5 (-1.5) Around butt: 44 (-1) Mid thigh: 21.5 (-1) Above knee: 17.5 (-1) Mid calf: 14.5 (same) Bicep: 13.5 (same) So.. minus 7" so far

I haven't lost weight either, but the last time I did 30DS I only lost about 4lbs. However, I did lose a LOT of inches! I'm looking forward to measuring Wednesday morning before starting level 2!

https://www.fitbit.com/user/29ZYF4 I recently upgraded to a fitbit chargeHR from a zip. Please feel free to add me on both here and fitbit, I could use the extra motivation!

Day 3, done! I am a little sore today. I am planning to do the 10 days straight in a row. I have done 30DS in the past and found I was more sore if I took a rest day, instead of pushing through. As for my least favorite exercise.. I hate the last strength exercise after chest flies. My arms can hardly hold the weights out…

Kim, 27, 5'5" Starting weight - 180 Bust - 41 inches Underbust - 36 inches Waist (smallest) - 37 At belly button - 44 Hips - 44 Around butt - 45 Mid thigh - 22.5 Above knee - 18 Mid calf - 14.5 Bicep - 13.5 Will weigh in and take new measurements after each level (10 days)

I'm in the same boat! Do you find that you have trouble losing weight while breastfeeding? I've been breastfeeding for nearly 10 months and I have not been able to lose weight in the last several months. I am hoping that it just falls off after I wean. Lol
