I like to make a pasta bowl once in a while it's around 300 calories and you can make several at a time (I usually make 3 for me and 2 for my husband ) 1 cup cooked veggies (your preference- I usually use zucchini red pepper onion and yellow squash) 1/3 c cooked whole wheat pasta 1/4 c marinara sauce 3oz chicken (I usually…

Me too! Going to get rid of all the clothes I have and get new ones! I've been saving money for this day! Only 12 more pounds!

Thank you :) your perspective really really has made an impact. I never thought about that. I mean I have always though "you should be greatful for what you have " etc etc but it feels completely different when you put a face to it. I am going to call around my area this week! I just got a new job that leaves me with an…

That is a fabulous idea!! Thank you!

I don't think so much that I want to accept my figure flaws as much as I want to be proud of my progress and not afraid to wear shorts and a tank top when I go running. I see someone who is obese when I am just over weight.I think 140 is a good goal for someone 5'7 but that doesn't mean when I get there I will stop working…

Thank you!! Your post has really helped me <3

I will definitely be buying this book! Thank you!

Its so hard when you WANT to love your appearance but you cant make yourself stop nit picking! When I look in the mirror and say "wow your love handles are disgusting" I say "Hey Chelsea, would you say that to Ali or Alaina?" The answer of course is always no but I keep doing it! so frustrating. I guess it just takes time…

I am in the same boat as you! I drink as much as possible but don't really like it... So I do the bulk of my water drinking after/during a work out because I am so thirsty that it tastes good! But I do like water with ice as long as its not from the sink- I do not like it when you can taste it! We are just weird-os I think…

Hey girl! I could use some more motivation too feel free to add me! we can encourage each other! I was recently at my all time heaviest in February (195 sooo close to 200) and it scared me so I've been working my buns off and am down 23# since Feb! I'd love to help motivate you and get some back from you! <3

As long as its just for the day I don't think it will ruin you diet.. I have the issue where if I do a full on meal like that I just go on an all out food binge for a few days after so it's not good for me but if you can do it for just the day and thats it I think you will be fine :)

I think prayer is more for encouragment and humbling yourself... I dont think if you pray God is going to make you lose weight. I think what she was meaning was prayer for strength and the will to do the task, not dear Lord please melt the pounds away.. It takes work and faith that in the end all your hard work will pay…

Hi :heart: I am 22 and am having trouble staying motivated so if you dont have to many friends already feel free to add me as well! Something interesting.. I was born on friday the 13th.. Lucky day for me! :)

I have to remember this sometimes... That praying for strength is just as important as counting your calories in the weight loss world.. Support from family and friends and even people on here is great but the best support we can get is from above :) thanks for the reminder

I would love to give you a tip but I am probably the worst out there. I need some help myself!!! I was doing this program fro two months and did the 30 day shred and as soon as I finished the shred I took literally a week long binge with no exercise it was awful. All I can tell you that helps me snap out of it is to think…

:smile: I did it!! Feelin pretty good!! I can feel the difference and my husband says he can see it but you never know if hes just being nice... I'm trying not to look at my before 30ds pic until after I finish! How is everyone doing??? I have noticed that our posts have been going down in numbers I hope everyone is having…

Holy cow!!!!! Amazing Job!!!!!!!!!!!!

I did it!!! I was so awesome! Loved it so much want to do it again someday!

Man I reallllllly dont want to do 30ds tonight! But only 4 more and if I do it I will only have 3 more days.. I can do it. I want to do it! Ugh motivation is hard to find lately.

I am on level 3 day 4 and I can see a difference and feel how much my stamina has improved! I started at 169 and am currently at 164. I feel so great and so much stronger than when I started. as soon as I finish I am going to do ripped in 30!

Pretty Little Liars and and The Vampire Diaries!!!

I had the surgery in high school on one foot because it was so bad on my left foot my second toe over lapped the big toe and I couldnt even walk long distances with out resting and taking off my shoe. My right foot still has a bunion but it doesnt cause serious pain just hurts a little and is annoying so I guess it depends…

I have missed three days also because of moving and sickness so I am a tiny bit behind but tomorrow is day 10 level 2 and I still get really sweaty but I'm not "gargling my heart" after the cardio and I LOVE the oblique twist its my favorite part. Excited to start level three for something different but I actually like…

Just finished L2 day 5 fallowed up with L1 mostly because I havent been able to go for my walks because its getting darker earlier and…

I like low fat popcorn... because its low in calories but its super filling

:heart: Positive people make positive things:heart:

Feeling awesome after level 2 day 4 I fallowed it up with level one but man I could not to the squat press from level one with the weights because my sholders were SO sore from the chair squat v thing and the military press man L2 cercuit 3 strength is so tough!!!!
