Anyone TTC?
Hi ladies. I am currently a mom of three and we are TTC #4, but I need to drop about 30-40 pounds before I get pregnant. Well, that's what I want to do anyway. Lol. I'm considered obese (5'5 and 225lbs) so when I stop shoveling junk into my mouth, I tend to lose about 4-5 pounds a week for about a month, then it slows down…

Binge Eating Disorder
Does anyone deal with this disorder? I have since about 17 years old and it's rough. I did not know what it was until recently though. I thought I was just greedy. It's hard and exhausting. I struggle daily with not binging and keeping busy so that I don't spiral out of control. I really need support seeing as how no one…

Workout buddies?
Anyone new here or is there anyone that has been off their game for a while and are looking looking to start exercising? I am getting back into the swing of things after months of overeating and being completely lazy :s . Anyone looking to buddy up for support? The more the merrier!

My 30 Day Shred results!
So I finished 30 Day Shred yesterday. I was shocked that I stayed with it so long. But to make a long story short, here are my measurements and result pics. For the record, I am absolutely mortified about posting these, so please go easy on me. lol Start weight/End weight: 182lbs- 176lbs (6lb loss) Upper Arms: 12in-11.5in…

Before and After pics
I wanted to start a thread for it. I will post my results when I get back in the house.
-
Motivation
I figured that since we were all newbies, that we would need a thread to help us along the way. On the days that you aren't "feeling it" come by and let us help get you back on track. Nothing worth having comes easy. Try and always remember that time will pass regardless of what you decide to do with it.
-
Finished!
So today was my last day of 30 Day Shred. It actually took my 37 days, but I digress. I am ecstatic that I completed the whole thing without giving up. I feel so much better about myself and my body. Anyone else completed it yet?
-
Day 19
I didn't see a thread so I figured I would start one. I know I am probably a day or two behind those who have done it without breaks but feel free to comment if you'd like. I am going to do my day 19 in a few minutes.
-
Final days
Hey everyone. Just wanted to touch base with you all. I know that some of us took breaks, but for those who took only a couple or none at all, you should be on your last few days of 30DS. I just wanted to see how everything was going and who is ready to put up their before and after pics. i have three more days and am…
-
Level 3
I didn't see a thread so I figured I'd start one. I am starting level 3 tomorrow. Anyone else?
-
Any changes yet?
Most of us are either on days four, five, or six. For those people, have you noticed any changes yet? I ask because I finished day 4 of level 1 today and while playing around with the tape measure, I noticed a half an inch difference on my upper arms, waist, and hips. There was also a one inch difference in my thighs! I am…
-
Roll Call (Part II)
Just wanted to touch base with everyone to see who is still with us and where you are currently. I finished Day 18 of Level 2 this morning.

30 Day Shred...Who's with me?
So, I know I'm not a success story but I figured that this would be the best place to put this because in 30 days, I want to come back and share my results. I start tomorrow, who's with me? We can put our before pics up now, or wait until after we have finished the 30 days.
-
NSV
So, I went to see my son's therapist yesterday (we see here every other week or so) and when she saw me, she said " Are you losing weight?!" I was ecstatic because I hadn't really lost any weight except for a pound or two. I take that as a sign that Jillian is working her magic. The therapist hadn't seen me since I started…
-
Halfway there!
Just wanted to say hey to everyone and see how we are all doing. We are halfway there! Any changes yet? I have noticed that I am fitting shirts and jeans better. I am considering taking pics today to see if I can tell a difference from two weeks ago.
-
For those who started 30 Day Shred on March 19...
Who is still holding strong? We are halfway there and I am wondering if everyone is still doing it or if they've called it quits. I am on day 15 today and while I would love for it to be over NOW, I have come too far to stop now. Who else is still working hard?
-
30 Day Shred results
For those who have completed 30DS, how long did it take for you to notice a change in your weight or measurments? I am on day four of level one and am already seeing a decrease on the scale and tape measure. Is that normal?
-
Will it ever go away?
So I have been at this weight loss things for the last nine months or so. I'm down 41lbs and I like how my body is changing, but I still have this gross, lumpy stomach. Its not saggy skin or anything, its just fat. My question is, has anyone ever dealt with a gross bellyvand gotten rid of it? Now, I know that i may not…

Has anyone done 30 day shred while following Atkins?
I've already done 2 days of level 1 and wondering if anyone has any success stories of 30DS and Atkins or any form of low carb diets.
-
30 day shred question
I will be starting tomorrow and I'm wondering if this is something that a beginner can do. Or do you have to be a person who exercises daily.
-
30 Day Shred newbie
I'm thinking about starting and am wondering what (if any) materials am I gonna need. Do I need any weights or mats or one of those huge blue balls? lol. I want to make sure I give this my full attention while I'm going through it.

Before and during...PICS (34lbs down)
So I started my weight loss journey (on March 1, 2011) at *sigh* 220lbs (oh, and I'm 5'5). I got this coat from Old Navy in October when I was probably somewhere around 215lbs. I am now down to 185.6lbs and decided to see if there was a difference in how the coat fit. I see a slight difference, what do you guys think?

For the ladies who have children...
have you been able to achieve a nice looking belly after losing weight? I am wondering because I have 3 children and while I don't have many stretch marks, I am terrified about having that ugly pouch once I drop the rest of this weight. Anyone have any success stories without having to get surgery? If so, what did you do…
-
TOM question...
So I've been on bc for the longest. I just recently got off (due to starting something new) and I got my monthly. It's now starting to go away, but I've noticed that my weight has stayed the same the whole time it was here. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, did your weight loss just pick up after that TOM was over?
-
For those who count calories...
does that method really work? I'm doing Atkins and although I like it, I'm thinking about trying other weight loss methods so I can have more variety. If it does work, how is the weight loss when coupled with cardio and strength training? As of now, I'm losing about 10lbs a month.
-
How quick did you notice results when you started toning and
I just found some exercises to try to help tone and strengthen my core and am wondering when others started to notice a change in themselves after they started. I plan on taking pics as I go along, like every 2 weeks or so, but I'm thinking that it may be too often.
-
What is NSV?
I keep seeing it and am clueless. lol
-
A little help with strength training...
I'm semi new to the weight loss world and have been hearing about strength training. I've been seeing that it helps with weight loss and final results. Can anyone who has successfully done strength training point me in the right direction so I can help tighten my belly and help get rid of these unsightly back rolls.

Water...how much and how often
So I was reading about how much water one should consume everyday and after doing some math, I'm supposed to be downing at least 95oz of water a day. That's a lot of water. I've been doing 4, 16.9oz bottles a day and am having a tough time getting that much down. How in the world is someone supposed to drink that much when…
-
Anyone else doing Atkins?
I've been on Atkins for 10 weeks now. I'm doing extended induction and have lost 29lbs so far. I've finally kicked my cravings for carbs to the curb. It was at one point I would sit and eat an entire row of Oreo's or half of a half gallon of ice cream. Changing my eating habits have been rough but well worth it. Anywho, I…
