Hi Jeff! Congrats on starting the C25K! I did the program about a year ago, and it was fantastic! I always felt like I was pushing myself, but not so much that I didn't want to do the next workout because I was too tired out. I'm also 33 (well, i will be next week) and i have 3 kids, so i know how hard it can be to focus…

Today I'll stay on track because I can't make my sister move her wedding date back, and I can't push back my family's trip to Disney, just because I can't stay strong and reach my goals on time!

I'm in!:happy:

Awesome job! Thanks for sharing your results. I ordered 6W6P a few days ago; can't wait to get it and get started! I'm currently doing the 30DS and will start Ripped in 30 next month, but I will throw this into the mix, too. Gotta love/hate Jillian!

My kids have definitely been eating more fruits and veggies lately, and cutting back on the sweets. I make sure to emphasize the fact that I am trying to get healthier, not just trying to lose weight. In fact, while we were at the store today, my 9 year old daughter was looking at the candy bars and said she wanted one. I…

Bump!

So funny, I just posted a status about thus same issue, I have only eaten a pear and 10 grapes (as far as sugary foods; I've obviously eaten more than that today) and I'm already over my sugar allowance! After doing a little online research, I found that it's not a huge problem since these are not the refined sugars we see…

I had my leftovers from yesterday's lunch at PF Changs- Half a bowl (big bowl, more like a plate!) of shrimp with lobster sauce over brown rice. Only about 315 cals, and oh so yummy! Oh, and a leafy salad with Marie's yogurt dressing.

Thanks for sharing your results! I'm currently on level 3 of 30DS, and plan to do Ripped in 30 next month. I've been thinking of getting another one of Jillian's DVD's to mix in with these workouts, and you sold me on this one! I know some people get annoyed with Jillian, but she really motivates me. Congrats on your…

Uhmmmmmm.....I think the OP is being sarcastic. :wink:

Great job! Honestly, this may be the way I do it, too. I don't think I can give up while food altogether, and since my primary goal is to get more fruits and veggies into my diet, I think what you are doing may work for me as well. If it helps me lose a few extra pounds, then that's good, too!

I just did level 3, day 2 today. I forgot how hard this level is! My whole body hurts again, even more than it did after the very first day of level 1. Even my muscles on my side and lower back are feeling it, but it's a "good" hurt. The cardio mixes in strength, and the strength mixes in cardio, so it's non-stop. But I…

Thanks, I'll check it out!

Thank you!

Hi! I am just starting to learn about juice fasting and I am very interested in getting started. I need to purchase a juicer, and would like to do some more research, but I will probably be starting soon. I don't have a ton of weight to lose (I'd like to drop about 14 pounds) but I'm more interested in the overall health…

^^This!

I was down to 138.8, but it hopped back up when I got on the scale this morning. I hate the scale.

Great results! Congratulations! I'm doing 30ds this month, and Ripped in 30 in September, so thanks for sharing your pics and keeping me motivated!

Good job! I also started in the overweight category, but now I am considered "normal"! I still want to lose 14 more pounds, but I agree, it's a really good feeling to have a different "word" to describe you!

I am not an expert by any means, but....When I think of "starvation mode", I think of the idea that if you don't consume enough calories on a regular basis, your metabolism starts to slow down in an effort to conserve the few calories you are feeding it. A slow metabolism means you might feel sluggish, and your body won't…

I started at the end of July, but plan to do the DVD for the whole month of August. Then I will start Ripped in 30! I love 30 DS, and this will be my second time going through the workout. I definitely saw results last time, but then went back to my old ways. So here I go again!

Wow, great job! You look so much happier and healthier:)

On my way to the grocery store to pick up the cottage cheese, and I am soooooo trying this today! Thanks for posting :)

Great job with your weight loss! Plateaus are the worst, so great work pushing through it.

It's only a closed group because the OP created a spreadsheet for those who signed up to be in the group when it began. I'm sure it would be difficult to keep adding new members throughout the month. If I were you, I would still follow along and keep track of your results! I've also seen other groups like this that might…

I love this DVD! Jillian really keeps me motivated and pushes me through it. You'll love and hate her. It's tough, but if you push yourself and do the moves correctly, you can definitely see great results. Good luck!

Sometimes I wonder how accurate the MFP calculators are. If you are maintaining your weight now, but gaining weight at your "maintenance" calorie goal, then maybe MFP hasn't calculated your calorie goal correctly. I would say lower your calorie goal, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, and see if you make any progress.

Hi, we have an amusement park near us that used to be a Six Flags, but was bought out a couple years ago by someone else. My family has season passes there, so we are there a lot! When I go, I bring my own snacks, drink only water or diet soda, and eat at the Subway that is located in the park (last time I had a 6 inch…
