I started the 30DS on Tuesday 16th so today will be day 3 - anyone else REALLY feeling it in their legs? My calves and thighs are SO sore! I will power through though as I remember this being the hardest bit the last time I did it and the results were definitely worth it! No pain no gain! :) -x-x-

I am starting my shred tonight after 2 whole years of no exercise!! Wish me luck! Jillian has got me into shape before so I'm sure that she can do it again! :) -x-x-

Thanks everyone! I think the muscle gain could be part of the problem as I have been doing a lot of core-focussed exercise recently so I'm thinking maybe cut out the back exercises for now! I am also going to try and eat less bread/potatoes and pasta as when I followed SW I had the best results from this. Thanks for all…

Well after my first day yesterday of 6 Week 6 Pack my back is killing me!! I think it's from the lateral pull downs on the floor but now I'm wondering if I had bad posture for some of the ab exercises? I don't normally have this after Ab Jam so I don't know! I did Turbo Jam Fat Blaster this morning as I didn't want to put…

Well I did my Day 1 of 6 Week 6 Pack this morning! I really enjoyed it, my knee still isn't upto 100% but it wasn't too high impact and I managed quite well, It is hard though, I flagged towards the end with the side plank twist things :( Ouch!! Jillian mentions at the beginning of the DVD to do Level 1 for 3 weeks (5 days…

Am I too late to join?! I've done the Shred before and started a 2nd one just before Christmas but then injured my knee falling on the ice so gave up :( For Christmas I got 6 Week 6 Pack - has anyone tried this yet as it was only released on the 27th I think? I am hoping to mix up the Shred with 6W6P and my gym sessions, I…

Hey, I had the same thing last week! I think it was the snow - it made it impossible for me to get to the gym and made me feel all Christmassy! So we had 3 takeaways and loads of alcohol! Worst of all - no exercise!! I know how easy it is to get in "holiday mode" and I was determined to work hard before xmas and then not…

Not a "naughty day" as such but I do like to know that on a Saturday (for example) I can have a bit of a naughty meal - maybe not even THAT naughty, but let's say homemade chicken curry with brown rice and homemade chips......not too naughty! All homemade - BUT would probably put me slightly over my cals without exercise.…

I think we've all been here :) Infact - I'm here with you right now! Eating pizza! I've done so well with my eating and exercise for the last few weeks that I have this "moment" where I need to blow out! Luckily for me it sticks to a meal (pizza!) or a teeny piece of cake - but it makes you feel so good knowing that you…

This sounds yum!! I am totally buying some chicken tomorrow and making this for lunch on Weds!! Thank you :) -x-x-

I honestly don't think I ever will be happy with my body, I know I'm a perfectionist nd no mtter how much I weigh or what the measurements say I will be able to pick out "something" that I'm not 100% happy with. My mum couldn't believe that I wouldn't wear a bikini at the size I am now, she would be "ecstaticly happy" to…

I too used to weigh every morning but it got obsessive and even though I knew I would fluctuate (even to the point I knew that Tuesday is my heaviest day, have a loss Weds then lightest on a Friday.....!) it drove me INSANE! Then I changed to once a week (Friday of course, it being my lightest day!! Lol) and that helped me…

Our gym do one of these every year but it's usually during working hours! This year it's on a Sunday so I'm up for it!! You get a free suit for every run over here in the UK :) -x-

What?! I battled through 30 days of non-stop shredding with aching muscles! :( -x-

Wow this sounds yum! I might add a bit of low fat cheese on top too! Mmmmmm! -x-

Hey hun, I have just got back into my morning workouts as I found them the most beneficial for me and my body. I keep my gym clothes next to my bed (or last night I slept in them!), I always set my alarm but wake up before it goes off - my body get's excited for it's workout I think lol. I don't have time to eat anything…

Deffinately going to make this soup, it sounds a lot like one my mum used to make years ago from one of her slimming groups. I would also like to see the 3 day diet plan - not sure I could stick to this one for 7 days and could do with a boost :) -x-
-
I am also worried about this! I'm working my little *kitten* off at the moment in order to prepare for a (hopefully small) gain over the holidays. I think my plan is going to be to keep up the exercise - and allow myself a few treats so I don't feel like I'm missing out, but also try and make the healthiest choices at…

I am going to start my second round of 30DS tomorrow too! My first round I managed it every day for over 30 days and it was brilliant at shaping up my body! This time around I will be doing it along side my Lean month of Chalean Extreme so hoping for some amazing results! Good luck ladies! :) -x-x-
-
Wow I didn't know about this! Almost makes me scared to go and chek out the calories in the WHOLE pizza I managed to consume last week :( I know slap my wrists now!! I will deffinately have a look at this in the future though - might put me off being such a piggy! :) -x-

My names Vicki........and I'm a wine lover!! Like alot of you other ladies it is the 1 thing that I won't give up! I have changed from straight wine to spritzers though and limit myself to weekends now. If I tried to cut it out completely it would be unrealistic for me as it's the one thing that I love (along with Jelly…

Hey, I've not tried the DVDs but went to a class last week and it was so much fun!! The instructor was wearing a HRM for the workout and burnt over 500 cals in 45 mins! So it's also a really good workout :) If you enjoy dancing and having fun when you workout then you will love it! :) -x-x-
-
This looks yum! Thanks hun! -x-

Thank you :) Hoping that I enjoy it as much as everyone says I will hehe! -x-x-

These sound yummy! I have a really dumb question though - how do you shred chicken? I have done shredded chicken in my slow cooker before but not in a pan? How long would I boil it for? Do I need to add any flavourings to it? -x-x-
-
They sound yum!! I've just come back from camping (not by choice but because I'm poorley :( ) and I took with me: Almonds Fruit Raw Veggies Cereal bars Peanut butter (to spread on apples or dip in carrot sticks etc) Low Cal/High Fibre crackers Eggs - I like to snack on hard boiled eggs and they're good to add to salads :)…

So my first fast was yesterday and I managed to do 21 hours. I really think I could have gone the duration though so I beat myself up about it a bit, I just wanted a sweet cup of tea lol. And then I managed to fit in over 1000 cals in the evening which I'm now disappointed with! :( I am thinking about doing a second fast…
