Looking for MFP pals who I can cheer along to success!
Hi there folks! I took some time away from MFP; too long for my own good! So now I've got a lot of work to do getting back into shape. In the past I've really enjoyed the support not only that I've received but also that I've been able to give. I will tell you though that I'm committed to my goals 150%, and would like to…

It's time to begin again and I could use some friends!
I'm starting again today! When I first joined FP 2 years ago I was very dedicated to fitness, good health, and proper diet ... then I got lazy. Unfortunately, I now am at my heaviest weight in years; the last time I weighed this much I just gave birth to my daughter. That's OK though because today's the day where I've…

Yoga DVD Recommendations
Hi there. I just started doing hot yoga at a studio, but want to improve by practicing more at home. I keep thinking about trying those Rodney Yee dvd's. Has anyone tried them or have other ones to recommend. My fitness goals are to gain strength, improve my flexibility and I'd like to have a decent burn. I already have 2…

Why aren't I burning more calories?
Hi everyone. Let me start by saying, I love this site and I really value all the information you can gain from reaching out to the MFP community. I just got a Polar HRM, which I think is the coolest little gadget. It has, however, been a real eye opener. I've been working out nearly every day (some times even twice a day)…

Day 30
This is it ... Day 30!!! Who's still in? I just finished already this morning. So happy I decided to give it a try. I think I'm going to do another 10 day of level 3 then move on to another of her DVDs.

Day 28
We're close to the end ... Who's still shredding?

Day 22
So how is everyone feeling today? I'm finding level 3 to be a challenge. I like very much, however, how all 3 levels really do differ. I'm already starting to think about the next 30 days and whether or not to restart the Shred or another JM DVD; I picked up her Ripped in 30 and Yoga Meltdown. Anyone else in the group…

Day 16
We're halfway through our challenge ... How's everyone doing?

Day 13
Hi all! I know there've been some folks who have had some wrist pain during this 2nd level. I haven't had that issue, but my right shoulder has been bothering me a bit, especially when we go into those planks. I guess we've got to be careful, watch our form when we're doing the exercises, and listen to our bodies! I think…

Day 12

Day 5
I'll get things kicked off for Day 5 for us. I actually felt more energetic yesterday. I am starting to notice some positive results though. For the heck of it, I checked some measurements. Not everything dropped, but I did lose an inch of of each thigh. YEAH! I'm loving this routine!

Starvation Mode: Truth or Myth?
Hi all. I'm starting to feel a bit frustrated. I've been so very good at weighing, measuring, tracking and exercising daily. I've noticed that I now eat when I am hungry and not out of boredom, anxiety, etc. Here's the issue - I'm not losing weight. I feel like throwing the scale out the window every morning. I've been so…

30 Day Shred Questions
Good morning everyone. Just purchased Jillian's 30 Day Shred last evening and completed level one this morning. May seem a silly question, but ... how are you supposed to work though the levels and do you only do one 20 minute level a day? I've looked at some of the before and after pics folks have posted; They've had…

Pumpkin Dessert
Hi there. I love pumpkin pie filling; could care less about the pie crust. Any ideas on how to lighten up the filling and bake it in a custard cup so it still tastes like pumpkin pie?

X-Country Skiing
Hi there! The early snow we just had at the end of October has me very motivated! I really want to try Cross Country Skiing this year and have absolutely no idea how to get started or where I could go locally to give it a try. Does anyone in the group already participate in this activity and if so do you have some tips?…

New to site and also just went back to WW
Hi there. I love this site and am interested in meeting other folks doing WW at the same time. I am a Lifetime Member at WW, who has "fallen off the wagon" a bit, so to speak; ( off the wagon and into the cookies, cakes and ice cream ) Anyhow, really looking to get back on track. I believe 100% in WW, but don't feel a…
