Holiday POA (Plan of Attack)
What are y'all planning to do as far as eating/dieting to make it through the upcoming holidays? Any specific goals in mind?

Introductions
For those of us who are new to this group - and for those of us who were part of the 30DS group that just finished - figured it would be good to get some Introductions on here to get a feel for where we're each at! My name is Melanie and I live just south of Atlanta, GA. I'm a 35 (OUCH!) year old single working mom to a…

FINAL CHECK IN!
Just wanted to see how each of you are doing - where you're at - if you're finished, etc... and what you plan to do next! I finish up level 2 tomorrow!!! Very excited to move on to level 3 on Monday. I'm giving myself 2 weeks to finish up level 3 since next weekend is all about the 15k on Saturday morning! At the end of…

Need advice on: eating before a big race
So I have my first 15k coming up on Saturday. I've done a handful of 5ks, one 10k... but this is my first true long distance race. Any tips/advice on what to eat the night/morning before? And also what NOT to eat?

Check In / Updates
Hey guys! FINALLY got some face time with Jillian this morning after taking six - yes SIX - whole days off. I just finished day 7 of level 1, and was happy that despite the time off I was able to do most exercises with the 5 pound weights. I did slack off on the cardio near the end, and I couldn't do as many push ups as I…

First Week Down - Update and Random Questions
So even though it wasn't he original plan I took the whole weekend off from 30DS. I'm glad I did though - I think I needed the break. Will probably continue to do it 5 on 2 off for a duration of 6 weeks. Looking forward to knocking out this mornings workout and using some heavier weights. Actually hoping to feel sore -…

What do you use as motivation?
Here it's 5:30 AM and i'm just getting ready to start Day 3. While I enjoy the video - the idea of facing JM first thing in the morning is not always pleasant. I come on here and check out the boards, see that some of you have just finished, and it motivates me to do it too. I really think this group will be instrumental…

JM DVD's - which other ones have you tried?
30 DS is my first experience with dear Jillian :) I was browsing amazon.com and found a couple more I'm thinking about buying - the ripped in 30 and another one that's solely for legs (I'm all hips and thighs and would LOOOOOVE to tone them up!!!). Which videos have you tried? And which are your favorites? Another other…

What other exercising are you doing besides 30DS?
I've been following a training schedule for a 15k in October. This week (week 5) actually ramps up in intensity where i have a day with a 3 mile, one with a 4 mile, and another with a 5 mile run (I typically run 6 and walk 2 or 3). In addition, the training schedule calls for a couple days of cross training (I bike ride).…

Level One
I have come up with an "innovative" way to make this video more fun - I will start counting the number of times JM says an exercise is "Simple but Effective" :) Day 1 is officially behind me and it wasn't THAT bad.... although by the time those bicycle crunches came around at the end my legs were ready to give out. I did 3…

Introductions
I would love to learn a little bit more about each of you - i.e., "the basics", what originally brought you to MFP, if you've ever tried 30 DS, if you're gonna take pics, etc. I'll start :) I'm a 35 year old single mom. I've been successful with weight loss before - but have NEVER reached my goal weight :( My mom…

Interested in doing 30 Day Shred together?
I keep seeing all these posts about people who have done it and been successful (maybe not so much for weight loss, but for inches lost). Is anyone interested in starting this with me next week and encouraging each other?!?! :)
-
Update...
Tried to add most of you as friends - but apparently I can only make five friends in 10 minutes. About my daily real life average anyway - so no big deal :-) I've NEVER done anything more with my 30 day shred dvd than look at it - so I'm very excited to start this - and looking to each of you to encourage me (and everyone…

35F in GA Want friends to shock the world by our weight loss
I'd like to find some friends on this journey who are looking to both give and receive some support. If you're in a similar situation as me, that's an added bonus! :) This morning I was 210.6lbs. I've battled my weight for years. At my worst I was 244lbs post pregnancy, and had managed to get down to 171. Add in the stress…
