What to do after 30 day shred?
I am almost done level 2 of the 30 day shred. I love it that it's every day and only about 30 mins. That totally fits into my lifestyle. What should I do when I'm done (other than potentially do it again with heavier weights)? Is ripped in 30 a good segue? I would really like to keep it to 30 mins max and can handle every…

NSV in the bedroom....
Ok so I have the best DH. He's loved me every shape and size, pregnant, non-pregnant and all that good stuff. Recently, I started working hard to lose the last 20 lbs that have been hanging around for the last few years and I've finally done it and WOW can I just say the *attention* that I am getting from him! We've always…

NSVs left right and centre
Ok so I've been on this journey for some time now and I don't have a ton to lose but lately EVERYONE seems to be commenting about how good I look L-) Loving it!!! It may be that the clothes fit better. Isn't it odd how it takes a certain amount of loss for people to start saying something to you? Also the comments often…

I love sardiiiiiiiiines!
I periodically will post about this and feel the need to do it again...I totally absolutely unequivocally LOVE sardines. There is a stigma out there about sardines being gross and stinky and I gotta say, as a person who does not eat meat but eats fish and who is also living a low-carb life, they are GREAT sources of…

NSV - 2 in 2 days

Yeah I can tell, you look really good!" and then TODAY, my co-worker said I'm starting to look like I did in my wedding pictures!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOVE THIS one!

Where are my fellow sardines-lovers?
Ok I know it's not popular to say but I LOVE SARDINES! They are yummy and a great source of protein for my pescatarian self. They are cheap and they are easy to bring to work and last for a long time. I just adore them. They are my go-to for lunch on the run. That with some nice melba toast and I'm good to go. Where are my…

Double-take NSV
In the lunch room just now, while I was getting my coffee, a co-worker (who I don't work with that closely) said "Hi". I replied "Hi". Then he said "I had to do a double take just now to see who it was". And I said "oh, must be the height" (I am wearing high heeled boots). He said "No, you've lost weight. You look…

My 30 Day Shred Results (with pics I hope)
I hope this works (posting pics that is). I am done doing the 30 day shred. I did NOT do it every day despite my best intentions. I had to take a few days off here and there due to well, life. BUT I always got back in there and picked up where I left off. So it's been a bit more than 30 days but not much. I used 3 lbs…

Ripped in 30?
I am on day 4 of Level 3 of 30 Day Shred. Loving it. I am thinking of doing Ripped in 30 next. Everyone on here seems to rave about Insanity but I have some apprehensions so I'd love to hear form people who 'graduated' from 30DS and moved on to something else. So, bring on the comments. My limitation is primarily time.…

NSV - skinny jeans
Ok so I am down ANOTHER PANT SIZE! Which is shocking because the scale still hasn't moved but whatever. I wasn't even looking to buy pants but I tried on these cute black skinny jeans that I thought, there's no way they'll fit, and voila'! They FIT! And there was no overhang! And they weren't tight! So I had to buy them.…

Husband NSV
So, we were watching old home videos that were taken 4 months after I had my second child (which was 21 months after I'd had my first) and my husband said "wow, honey, ummmm, I just want to say that you look really amazing right now!". He's so cute, he didn't want to say that I was soooo big before. It was nice to hear him…

Men
Men on MFP, I have to say a big THANK YOU for all the supportive comments you make when women gather up their courage and post their amazing progress pics. I love seeing these guys say things that make women feel really good about themselves. Yes, women's comments and support are amazing too (so keep that coming ladies!!)…

Ok I am officially confused (eat cals back or not?!?!)
I have been trying to get some loss for some time. I was on WW and it worked well but have officially plateaued. I can't seem to lose any more weight. I'm doing the 30 day shred and have already lost inches but so far, have lost less than one lb in terms of weight. Don't get me wrong, I'm liking the way my body is…

Vegetarians out there?
Hi, I am getting frustrated with everyone's tips on eating protein to keep you full etc. and am super jealous of all those people that have grilled chicken/turkey breast for dinner with their salad or whatever. I know we have tofu and fish and all that but is anyone else finding the high-protein diet changes challenging…

First 'real' NSV
I saw my parents this weekend. Hadn't seen them in a couple of weeks. My dad gave me a once over when he answered the door and just said "Hm. Nice!" and my mom, while I was talking to her said "your face! You look so good! So happy and your body looks so good!". Yessss!!! I started the 30 day shred just over 2 weeks ago…

Level 2 of 30 day shred
So today I did level 2 of the 30 day shred. It is a lot harder than Level 1 but I have to say I really enjoyed it. I am totally soaked!!! And I know I'll feel it tomorrow. After two days of poor food choices, I really needed that kick in the butt! Have a great day everyone!!!

Day 3 of 30 day shred

So goodbye $50/month membership (I was only going 2 or 3 time a month) and hello working out every day in the comfort of my own home.…
