You don't need luck Dana, I'm sure you'll do awesome! L2/D1 kicked my *ss yesterday...I was saying alot of un-lady-like things at Jillian. LOL But I pushed thru it & did L2/D2 today. Same amount of cussing, but I took less "breaks" than yesterday. I told my BFF today "OMG I think Jillian's trying to kill me!!" LMAO

Thanks so much everyone! Wow-MFP peeps are so amazing! For those who are thinking about starting 30DS, just do it. Try it and I'm sure you'll love it. I also included a profile pic...didn't know how to edit my post so I'm adding it below: Profile pic

It absolutely gets better...actually, let me re-phrase that - YOU get better (and stronger) as you do it. I never worked out before I joined MFP 3 wks ago. I decided to start tracking my food and 30DS all at the same time. Like you, all I ever really did (prior to joining MFP) for physical activity was walking. The 1st few…

I broke my leg, cracked the kneecap and tore the ACL ligaments twice 2 consecutive winters about 3 yrs ago. I never had surgery to repair it, just tons of physio. So I was a bit nervous to start 30DS, especially since this is my 1st time actually "working out" regularly. I've been doing 30DS since I joined MFP 3 wks ago…

Amazing job! You look fabulous (and so happy)! :) You deserve to be proud of yourself.

Thanks for posting this list, JD-it's awesome & totally makes sense! I've read on this site about the body going into "starvation mode" if a person doesn't eat enough calories/day. I guess I thought I could just have my body eat the "stored" fat if I stayed around/below 1200 cal's? Yeah, not too smart of me! Lol Do you eat…

Thank-you CK. You actually reminded me-I haven't seen my Dr yet since I started MFP. Especially since I have high BP, I probably should pay her a visit soon! I've been measuring the inches lost as well and I see that it's been moving in the right direction so I try not to get de-motivated. For someone who's never really…

Thanks Sylly. I've never done this before so it's good to learn that there's no "set" way of travelling on this journey. I totally love this site too-it's been eye-opening for me and the people here have been VERY supportive & encouraging. :) Amazing experience so far.

I also did every other count on my 1st couple of days for bicycle crunches & anterior raises-I figured it was best to work up slowly to success rather than not do it at all. Now I can keep up & I'm starting L2 today (pray for me!!! Lol) I sweat buckets...I mean big buckets!!! Lol By day 5, I had to start using a sweatband…

Great job for making it thru day 1 of 30DS! It's not easy, I couldn't make it thru the whole thing my 1st day (I started it on July 3). I've never exercised before I joined MFP July 1st so 30DS was a big step for me as well. I also have 60 lbs to lose, so add calorie-counting for my 1st time PLUS working out and I was as…

First of all, Congrats on losing 6 lbs-that's awesome! :) Don't be discouraged, you're on the right track and you're losing the weight at a healthy pace. I'm the kind of person who wants immediate results too, but I've learned that if I spent years of my life putting this weight on then I will likely need more than a…

Congrats on all your hard work-you look fabulous! :) I've been big my whole life & dealt with my insecurities behind a mask most times. Over the last few years I've learned to care less about other people's negative perceptions as they don't walk in my shoes (still a work in progress but my inside voice reassures me to not…

Thanks for this idea! :) I tried it tonight w/baby spinach and I sprinkled half the batch w/just a little sea salt & paprika, the other half I sprinkled some Club House Roasted Red Pepper & Garlic seasoning. OMG So good! New snack for the Recipe file :)

Fabulous results! WTG You should be very proud of yourself & your hard work :)

*high 5 slap* WTG :)

Awesome words - nothing sugar-coated, just black & white to drive the point. Makes sense. Love this! :happy: Thanks!

I was also looking for an answer to this as I don't have a HRM yet. I've heard people burn anywhere from 450-1000 calories in a Zumba workout (which doesn't help-LOL). But I found this site: http://sites.google.com/site/zumbacaloriesburnt It takes your weight and how hard you were working out (low, medium or high impact)…

Fabulous! You have EVERY right to be PROUD!!! Work it, girl! :smile:

Sounds so yummy! I'll have to share this w/my BFF who introduced me to the wonderful world of Greek yogurt and happens to love everything lemon :) She'll be thrilled! Thx for sharing.
