I currently live in Jacksonville NC, and the Cape Carteret area is nice, and the beaches are great. It's a costly area, there are a total of 4 military bases in the surrounding area, which jack up the price of living. Government jobs are plentiful though. It's about an hour and a half away from Wilmington, and around two…

Welcome! Feel free to send me a friend request if you want to. I'm 26, married, have one child and two dogs. :)

My son is 13 months, and I make time after he goes to bed to work out. I'm either in the garage on the elliptical or doing a 30 minute work out tape of Jillian Michaels. I also do most of the work around the house and the transporting of my son to daycare. After his bed time is the only time I've found that I can fit…

LOL OMG!!

Welcome!! :D

Me too, me too!! I want to shed 30 pounds. Feel free to add me (open invite as well).

You can add me as well if you want to! I fell off track and had friends delete me as well.

I too am a vet and wife of a Marine. I have one child who is a year old and I am just now back to my pre-pregnancy weight and still have a ways to go. Feel free to add me as a friend if you'd like! :)

You can add me too if you want, I'm getting back at it as well.

I think it's totally possible! I mean, I'm sure your not measuring wrong :laugh: But seriously, you probably gained muscle. :) Congrats on the inches lost and for sticking with it!!! :drinker:

Alright, I don't have the actual measurements in front of me, but I took them this morning before I left for work. From start to finish, here's how much I lost. Pounds lost: 5.4 Inches lost: 14.5 I met my goal of losing five pounds. I wish I would have lost six or more, but I know I gained muscle so it's ok. I'm so excited…

I'm also from NC, but the Jacksonville/Camp Lejeune area. Feel free to add me if you want. Good luck to you!

ALSO DONE WITH DAY 30!!! :drinker: I'm actually scared of tomorrows weigh in. I'm hoping it's down but who knows. :huh:

Day 9 done! Can't even express how glad I am that tomorrow is the last day!

Thanks Kristyn! Finished day 8 tonight. Erica, I have a hard time balancing on those weights too. My right hand gets numb when I'm doing it. And my husband has tried to talk to me a few times while I was doing it, and when he couldn't understand me (because I'm trying to breathe and talk at the same time lol) I got…

Day 7 done. Tonight was so hard. I really am ready to just quit! I know if I do though, I'll be so angry with myself. Can't give up when the finish line is so close. Hope everyone is sticking with this. :)

Day 6 done, yay! Four days left ladies!!!

Weigh in today was 171.8, up from the last weigh in by over a pound. Uggg. Good news is that I finished day 5 tonight. I really gave it my all tonight so I'm feeling good about that! Jennifer

Day 4 done! I'm so glad to know that I'm not the only one with rug burn :) I'm also so thankful for you ladies, your support has kept me from giving up!

Erica I hope you are feeling better today! Done with day 3. I'm starting to get carpet burn on my elbows, looks like I need to start using a mat lol!

I didn't read what everyone else said, so forgive me if I repeat something someone else has already said. I hadn't worked out in a while (almost a year) when I first started the shred. I did the first day, and then I was sore for a week. Badly sore. I didn't do it again for a few weeks. The second time around I made it…

Day 2 level 3 is done. There must be something going around, Sunday I had a sore throat and a stuffy nose. Today I'm still feeling iffy. Hope everyone is feeling better and still hanging in there!

I just did level the first day of level three, and I'm not sure what the heck just happened. I pretty much had this look on my face the entire time I was doing it :noway: Glad I didn't watch it before I did it, I would have scared myself out of it! Didn't think I'd say this, but I miss leve two :sad: . LOL! Here are my…

Day 10 done! So glad to be out of level two. Scared of level three though lol. Hope everyone is having a great weekend.

Hope everyone is hanging in there! Finished day 9. I'm really lacking the desire to continue doing this, but I won't give up. Is level three more focused on legs or arms? I'm not sure if my arms can take much more.

Really did not want to do this tonight but I did. Day 8 is DONE.

I'm on day 18 and lost a few pounds, and then gained a few back. Now I seem to be stuck. I think it's normal.

Day 7 done. I convinced my hubby to do it with me, and he dropped out after the walking push ups. That made me feel strong!

I agree with two previous posters, toys or glow bracelets. Oriental Trading online has a ton of little toys that are reasonable and are designed for Halloween. If you have a craft store nearby, look for the glow bracelets. Kids LOVE them. Our local craft store (Michaels) sells them in tubes of 15 for a dollar. Cheap, fun,…

Alright, day 6 is done. I'm starting to get some pain in my pelvis where I had stress fractures years ago. I really hope I'm not getting injured again :( . I had a hard few days calorie wise. I didn't realize how many calories were in one cup of pasta, so I'm sure that's why the scale is up again.
