30lbs in 30 days Guninea Pigs Now Chosen!



Yep, seriously, it's been nailbiting stuff deciding the final 'contestants' of my 30-in-30 fatloss program.

It's been hard, I can tell you.

MUCH harder than I ever thought it would be!

See, I thought I'd invite my readers to try out for a place and that I'd get 20-30 people serious enough to give the program a good go but instead I got...

...386!

(I dealt with more emails and blog posts than this but many were double or triple applications)

And I've actually reviewed each and every one of them myself.

I made a first cut, second cut, third cut and so on until I got down to those that I felt most able to give the program a good run and who were likely to get the best results from it.

Of course, along the way that's meant cutting out a lot of great people who really did deserve a place on the program and I genuinely feel a little sad tonight thinking about all the people I had to cut.

If you're one of them and you won't be joining me on the program this time around, I'm sorry. It's nothing personal. I just had to go with my heart on this...

Anyway, I guess you just want to know if you're in or out, right?

Well, here goes!

Those who will be working with me at my London studios are (drumroll please)...


Natasha Broke
Alison Louise Leask
Joe Strydom
Rob Fitzgerald
'Divine Angel'
Jin Sandhu
'China Blue'
'Belinda'


Yes, that's EIGHT People instead of six. I extended it... but still had to say no to 30 other people that wanted to come to my Islington centre.

For my 'international' component the following people will be starting with me on Monday:

Margot Faircloth
ShirleyAnn
'Honeybee'
Marilyn
'Carpediem'
Catherine
Jazia
Angela W
'2 DOGS'
Amy Jo
Bradford
'Britgirl'
'One Middle Aged Woman'
'Chocolatebutton'
Amanda
Joan Bliefernicht
Cyn
Andrew Johnston
Pastor Greg UMC
'Smoochysteph'
'Monkeydogoohoohaahaah'


As you can see, I've broken my rule again and instead of 12 I've invited 21 people (I'm too soft, I know but...)

As you can also see, my 'accidentally on purpose' mistake of not asking you all to leave your full names means that I only have the blog names for some of you : )

So look, if you were named, you need to send me an email to my studios at daxmoypts{at}aol.com with the subject line IN FULL CAPS: I'VE BEEN CHOSEN FOR DAX'S 30-IN-30 PROGRAM! (This is important as my inbox is rammed full of mail right now) and I'll get you signed up and tell you what the next step is.

It's going to be a great 30 days but I promise you, I have high expectations of all my participants and won't be letting any of you off the hook if you drop the ball... I'm going back to my drill-instructor mode on this one. I have to or you won't accomplish the 30lbs.

If you weren't selected...

I apologise.

I really do.

I want to help as many people as possible but I don't want to make the program less effective by trying to help more people than I can possibly manage by myself.

That said, I still think that I and my team can really help you.

I'd like to recommend that you join my community at http://www.daxmoy.ning.com if you haven't already, download my free elimination diet and support each other as you go through it together.

In my community you'll find HUNDREDS of posts that'll help you achieve amazing things in a very short period of time and, of course, I and my team will be there too to make your journey a little easier.

Whatever you do, I genuinely wish you well.

I also just want to thank you once more for trusting me with this goal. I know it took a lot for many of you to post here and I appreciate the trust given here over the last few days. I won't forget it. i promise.

Truth, joy and love

P.S - If your name is on either of those lists you should be mailing me right now! : )

Congratulation to all of you !

I've guessed 4 people to get in.

Good luck and keep us posted!

Thank you Dax I know it was not easy.


PS:Looking forward to your results and pictures.

Unknown said...

Yikes! Dax! I missed the originial guinea-pig post in which you said, that I am to tell you why I should be given one of the spots on the program. Boy! did it affect my chance.

I do want you to know that I am deadly serious about it. My 9 year old has taken to calling me "popcorn", instead of dad or pops or whatever, probably because I eat the stuff a lot.

I went climbing a hill the other day, about 500 steps, and was huffing and puffing to the top. At the top, my head was spinning, and everything was a blur. It took me almost half an hour to recover and attempt the climb down. I thought I was dying.

I used to be much much thinner and fitter. I used to go to the gym 5-6 times a week, workout diligently, kept a workout journal, and looked good. Somehow, things changed.

Now, I want them to change again. It's not going to be easy for me. I work six and a half days a week, 12 hours a day. I don't know where I will find the time. But find the time I will, and workout
too I will.

I sometimes refer to my belly as my one-pack. I don't want the one-pack any more. I want six. I want a six-pack. It'll be hard,but not impossible. Re-consider Dax, chose me and get me pointed and started in the right direction.

And yes, whether I'm catch #22, and you've added me to the lucky 21, or not...., I appreciate this course and what you are doing.

Thank you...

NicoleC said...

BIG mistake, Dax. My before and after photos ARE going to be PHENOMENAL. Your loss ... will be my (weight) loss. ;)

Good luck everybody!

VivRichards said...

Ah! Congratulations to all of you. I'm really looking forward to watching your progress and cheering you along from the sidelines. Dax, when will this program be available for the rest of us to try? I'm really keen. Until then, I'll try my best on my own, with the elimination diet etc.

Emma said...

Congratulations to all those who where selected.

looking forward to see the before and after pics.

Great one Dax, this one really got the net buzzing.
Looking forward to a stake in the next amazing offer.

Claudia said...

YAY!! Congratulations to everyone selected! I'll look forward to seeing how it all turns out!

Gaah! I love before and after pictures.

Well done Dax - good of you to pick extra people. I hope it's a fun experience for you as well!

AmyJ said...

*bids for a place should anyone drop out of the "international" program. With four stones to lose, I'll take all the help/advice/instruction I can get!

jilly said...

DAX -

THERE'S STILL TIME TO PICK ME! BELIEVE ME, IF YOU HAD CHOSEN ME YOU WOULD HAVE HEARD FROM ME PRONTO!

MY BEFORE/AFTER PICS WILL BE DRAMATIC AND I WILL START A BLOG SPECIFICALLY FOR THIS PROGRAM; I WILL BLOG EVERY DAY AND STAY ACCOUNTABLE TO ME AND YOU!!!

vikki said...

Hi Dax

I can't believe all those who were picked haven't emailed you back yet. I was so disapointed not to of been picked, however, i know it must of been a real hard job picking from us all.

To make things worse, it is my 10 year anniversary today and my boyfriend has asked me to marry him!!!! So even more of a reason to shift this weight.

This is just one last bid to persuade you to choose me. I would be 100% committed to your programme. I would give my all and more. I need to shift this weight before i even think about expanding my family ( which i hope to do once we are married) Please please pick me should you have a space available.

I had pinned all my hopes on being picked, stupid I know...

Good luck with your lucky candidates!

Vikki

Angee said...

Dax, I should be chosen. I am committed and I will follow your instructions exactly! I am a 46 year old woman and my before afters will be amazing!!!!!
Please choose me if your other guinea pigs don't confirm.

Anya said...

Dax,

I have got to tell you, I've been praying for one more chance, the one you've just given me!
The reasons why you should definitely chose me are:

I live next to your Islington studio (logistcs logistics - still important!).

I am done with my degree and have lots of free time to exercise, drink water, meditate and prepare my food carefully, shop for best quality ingredients - I am saying NO to processed food! and take great care of myself in general - no stress, proper sleep, and so on.

I don't drink, don't smoke, have already given up wheat and diary(I love the ED!)

I will push myself really hard to do my very best when it comes to the exercise regimes.

I am healthy, determined and have a strong character, when I make a decision of a change, I will stick to it! And of course, I will listen to you and follow ALL your advice!

I will blog about this experience like crazy, trust me!

Lastly, I am visiting my mother in August and the new me, the reinvented, slim new me would make her proud. I am feeling really bad about myself, I feel like I have let myself (and in a sense, people close to me) down and there's nothing I would like more than for my mum to be proud of me and of how I am able to take control over my life. That's very serious. And I am ready for that commitment, starting tomorrow.

In any event, thank you for this 'competition'. It has made me re-evaluate things in my life and made me realise where I want to be in those thirty days from tomorrow.

by the way, please don't get me wrong, but I think that given my size now and what I can achieve after losing those 30 pounds, I will look really good in those 'after' photos (I am now about 176 pounds and almost 6' tall, 146 will be my perfect weight!).

Dax, please, give me this chance, I can assure you, you'll be pleased you did.

Best,

Anna

domhawk said...

Hi Dax,

Just saw your email about the awols. If any of those are the local winners then I'd love to throw my hat in the ring again. I'm not actually sure if you ever saw my original pitch as I stupidly replied to an email rather than posting a comment on the blog, so here it is again:
I am nearly 48 and live locally in Islington. I have come to fatherhood rather later than I intended and boy has it knocked me for 6. 2 babies , 17 months apart and both bad sleepers has meant, that until very recently, I have not been getting more than about 5-6 hours sleep per night. So, exhausted during the day, I would find it hard to exercise and eating high sugar foods just to stay awake enough to do my job. A destructive cycle that has seen me gain approaching 3 stone ( I am now 15 stone 6 lbs – I have no idea how many kilos that is). Having been an actor for 20-odd years, the desk job that I took to guarantee an income to support the kids also took it’s toll on my waistline.

The time has come to retake control! My daughter has recently begun sleeping through until a vaguely reasonable time and I am ready to meet the challenge. Once I decide to do something I am like a dog with a bone and have a will of iron. I need to get healthy - not just for myself – but for my kids. Being an older dad means having to be in good physical condition to keep up with my ‘duracell’ children. Plus the comparisons they are making between me and ‘ Daddy Pig’ on a kids programme called ‘Peppa Pig’ are becoming all too frequent! A an added incentive, my wife is planning on celebrating her 4oth birthday with a photo shoot of the family in August and I am going to have to live with the evidence of my physical demise on the walls of our home for God knows how many years to come!

Unless, of course, I break the cycle and commit to change. The thing you should know about actors is they are very vain but also very self-disciplined. The perfect combination for a guinea pig for your programme.

I won't let you down Dax. I decided to follow the elimination diet anyway when I saw that I hadn't been selected as I had great results when preparing for my wedding. So my fridge is stocked with lots of good stuff. I am also working freelance at the moment so I am pretty flexible when it comes to training. Just say the word and I am there!

All the best,

Dominic

Irene said...

I just saw the post that some of your "gp's" are AWOL.This is what I have been praying for all weekend. I couldn't imagine not being a part of this. I have already cleaned out my kitchen and purchased "clean" foods. I have eliminated all soda and caffeine from my diet over the last two days.
I am STILL SERIOUS about being one of your Guinea Pigs. I know that with your help and support, I can be the healthiest person I've been in this lifetime. No more searching for the magic pill or new fad. No more "shakes".
DAX!I'M WAITING TO HEAR FROM YOU!
Irene

Nettie said...

I missed it.
I don't believe it.
I want to believe it, but I don't.
I don't believe I didn't get in.
I don't believe I can lose 30lbs in 30 days.
I don't believe some of those chosen weren't checking their email every 5 mins.
Make me a believer Dax!
I'm impressed but want to be impressive!
Go on, you know you want to...:)

Good luck to all those ready and willing to sweat it out for summer! You'll out what you put in.

Jennifer Monsos said...

Ok, so you didn't pick me on the first round, but I am still here, wanting DESPERATELY to be one of you test rats! I ran a 5K yesterday, and know that with the proper diet, I can knock off this last 30 lbs that has been following me around. I teach yoga 10 hours a week (power yoga at that!!), I run every day, I participate in triathlons and I eat what seems to be relatively well, but STILL it hangs around. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE pick me in your second chance group!! I will go to the store tonight yet and get whatever is needed to participate starting tomorrow! If I can't be in the group, can you send me the info so I can do it on my own and prove to you and the world that your program works with or without personal guidance?

Do you see the seriousness of this post??? I WANT IN!!!

Fiona said...

Dax, I'm still very much interested in a place if one ends up available.

I am a 53 year old woman who has experienced a few bumps in the road over the past few years.

Nine years ago I developed breast cancer. One breast gone and chemo done, I got back into exercise to make me feel good. I decided to take up road cycling ... quite a learning experience for me - especially when I had a couple of broken bones from little falls (takes a while for bones to build up after chemo, I found out).

I was just getting into my stride again, when ... wham ... hit by a car. One fractured pelvis and vertebra later, I spent the next few months leaning to be normal again. Once again, exercise was the tool that took away the pain (eventually!).

Now I DO lead a normal life. No more dramas. And what happens? A wee bit of complacency, and a sporadic exercise pattern, and 30 extra pounds.

Please reconsider. I want to feel really good again. And a healthy, fit, clean body will do just fine for me. There's no greater feeling in the world (apart from love).

Thank you for listening.

Fiona

VivRichards said...

Hi Dax, Please please put my name back into the pot to be chosen for your program!!! Here is why I am perfect for the gig: I have about 28 extra flabby, muffin-toppy, stubborn pounds to lose. I need help and I'm determined and I will follow all instructions to the letter. I've already begun clearing out my cupboards. I have a gym area at home. No kids, and no work distractions for months. I'll blog and write and take photos with enthusiasm and chutzpah. I'll make both you and me proud! My health goal is so precious to me, for powerful and positive reasons. And most of all - I trust you and your team; that is why I can promise so much. I'd just love to hear from you,

Fingers crossed (again!)

Maria

ps. If you chose me I'll even support England in the Ashes! Now that's some dedication. ;)

movingforward said...

Hi Dax, what a learning curve this has already been for me! I responded to your first request but didn't realise I needed to type something on your blog. I've never used a blog before so decided I had better learn how if I wanted to give you the opportunity to get to know me.

I am a 36 year old woman who has decided today to become a white butterfly.

I have spent many years in a cocoon to protect myself. In recent years I have been aggravating against my cocoon and this has given me the chance to transform on the inside.

Having viewed myself as 'not normal' as a result of childhood sexual abuse, I have gained great strength from taking my uncle to court and having him convicted of the assaults against me. At times I still have to remind myself that I don't have to be medicated with chocolate; the gifts that his wife gave me that made me feel comfort.

I had (notice the past tense - already things are changing) 4 sources of shame in my life - the abuse, never having been on a date, my buck teeth and being overweight. I've been to court, went on a date a fortnight ago, my braces come off in about 3 months and this white butterfly is ready to honour herself by returning to a healthy weight range that will give me the best possible quality of life.

I've just been promoted at work and have joined a gym ready for my transformation. I've spent a lot of time working on transforming my 'inside', now it's time to complete this by transforming the 'outside'.

I hope you would like to be part of my journey Dax.

I'm ready to do what it takes. Are you in?

Heike said...

HI Dax, this is a reply to your most recent email, my final bid, just in case some people do not turn up or take you up on your offer.
I am about 40 pounds overweight, 5.11 tall, ready to loose it all now.
My gym membership has just been renewed, my family supports me and I'm ready to go.
The people who made it, all the best to you, give it your all and show us the pics .... (-:

Unknown said...

Woot! Congrats to all those who were chosen, and all the best with this amazing opportunity. I know you'll all do great, and I look forward to seeing your before and after pictures.

If you still have places available to fill the spots of those who haven't contacted you yet Dax, I would still desperately love the opportunity to join them. When I told my wife and son that I had applied, they were really great and supportive. They understand that things haven't gone so well for us this year with the sickness and drama's in the family. They also understood my disappointment in missing out, but the real kicker came when I got on the scales on the weekend. I haven't weighed myself for about a month, and to find that I've put a few kilo's back on in the past month was a real shock. After all the hard work and gains last year, I've started to go backwards again.

I really need a kick in the pants Dax, and this challenge is exactly what I need. I had already got the camera out and taken some "before" pics, and fired up the old blog site. I'm all ready to go. Just say the word Dax and I'll be one of your stars! Please pick me!!!

Good luck to everyone--this is going to truly be the opportunity of a lifetime for those of you chosen!
If anyone has a change of heart I'd love to step in--

Bikini Girl said...

I am sooo willing and able to follow your program to a T. I have been sitting all day in my largest pair of pants and feeling like a stuffed sausage because they are now too small. I want this not only for myself, but my family and the others I could inspire and influence as well.

Dax, please give me a chance to prove to everyone including myself that I am better than this shell that I'm in rights now. I am ready to go with this immediately.

Thanks for the second chance to change my life.

Unknown said...

Congrats to all the those chosen, I wish I was with you!

I've got the elimintion diet now and sorted my pantry today. Planning tonight, shopping and focus tomorrow. I'll be starting in a few days. One step at a time I know I can be successful even without the program (still jealous though!)

I am very excited to be starting the next stage of my journey to fitness on a program that is healthy and simple. I will need to increase my workouts from 45 min to an hour to keep up with all of you, I know it these small changes are going to make a huge difference, both for those who made it into the program and those of us who are supporting eachother as we work on the elimination diet.

If any of those selected decide not to step up and complete the program, I hope some of us others may be able to jump in. It should be a great process and produce some fabulous testmonials and photos for when the program (fingers crossed) gets opened up to a wider audience.

Good results everyone! (Because getting healthy isn't about luck...)

Peter said...

Dax,
Thanks for everything. I've enjoyed your magic 100 and your elimination diet. Would have loved to participate in the next 30 days with the group but it was not to be this time.
However, thank you for the opportunity to take a good look at myself, my reasons for wanting to lose 30 pounds and the tools I have at my disposal.
I will be mentally taking part as of this past Friday. I am taking the month off to get my body/head straightened out. I began the elimination diet and got back to the gym. Feel much better today after 2 workouts and 2 low carb days. Thinking much clearer, able to say no to the sweets and have much energy.
My plan is low carb with a high carb meal/day every 4th or 5th day and use eat/stop/eat 2 times/week, Sun after dinner - Mon dinner and Thurs after dinner - Fri dinner. My workouts will be daily for 1+ hours, usually late mornings. Odd days will be resistance training, full body for the full session and even days will be half session resistance training and half session intense cardio intervals.
Thanks for reminding me that success in anything in life is all about my mental, spiritual and physical well being coupled with my relationship with others in my life.
I came to realize my physical state was lacking and beginning to affect the other areas of my well being, bringing me to my present conclusion.
Thank you and good luck to all participants this month(I will follow you closely) and to you Dax Moy, with your new program.

Josh Aronovitch said...

A Final plea: I read with interest your recent email about how a few more spots might be opening up. A little of my story:

I am 31 years old, and a recovering lawer. I now spend my time as an SAT and LSAT coach, having started my own business. I have learned a lot from reading the elimination diet and your magic 100 materials. I am currently 195 pounds, and losing 30 pounds would put me at single digit body fat and allow me to have a six pack for the first time in my life. I have learned so much in studying nutrition, exercise, and fatloss during the last 2 years, but feel I would be able to learn so much more by being one of your guinea pigs.

I am willing to follow your direcitons 100%. Being self employed and setting my own schedule, I can devote up to 2 hours a day to working out. I am ready to commit mind body and soul to achieving this audacious goal.

If you choose me, I will be an excellent spokesperson and testimonial to your approach. I really hope to have the honor of working with you Dax.

Thanks,

Josh Aronovitch

Miamono74 said...

Okay, I think the fact that they haven't responded indicates a lack of believing they would ever be picked to begin with. That's SOOO not the mindset to start an intese program with. I'll do it!!! I'm in!!!! Even when I wasn't chosen the first round I decided to commit to the detox diet and do things on my own because I wasn't going to let NOT being chosen get in my way of accomplishing my goals. But if there's still a chance, even a SLIM chance,I'll do it! I really want to be fit for my kettlebell instruction class in September. The reason I want it so badly is to help my overweight ten year old niece lose weight. I want to be an example to her, my sisters, and other women that THEY CAN DO IT!!!! Let me prove to you that I'll be a great model for others moms and women. PLEASE give me a spot on your trial run and I promise to give it my all!!!! Hoping for the best!!!

Andrea said...

ok I have set up my 30in30 blog and am ready willing and able to do this!!!! I will take my measurements tomorrow morning, and hopefully right after that I will get to do my first 30in30 workout! I had my last green tea macha latte for the next 30 days, sigh, but water will taste great to get 30 pounds lighter!!!

Hi Dax
I can'tbeleive there is still a chance to get in on your 30lbs in 30 days program. When I read the list of names i really felt like I could cry. I had my fingers crossed and I really did beleive i could get chosen..
And so i throw my name in the ring again. I really need your help i have been struggling for the last four years and can't seem to get anywhere. I have to say i hate looking in the mirror and i want to go out less and less. I am sure in fact i know that i can be sucessful. I just need the direction and the encouragement. I am totally ready to workout everyday and follow your eating plan to the letter. I will be at the grocery store bright and early with your shopping list in hand. Plus I promise to write a great testamonial.
I am meeting a friend from high school that I have not seem in 35 years please help me look great and feel proud of mysef again.

Ginny said...

Hi Dax,
I am here to try for a second chance!!
I didn't give much info before, but here goes:
I am 54 years young! I have gotten into some very bad habits over the years( especially the past 10 years) Lack of nutrition, choosing what was fast and easy over what was best for my health. Lack of excercise, trying to convince my self that what 'work' I was doing would be enough. BAH! HUMBUG!
I recently went through an illness, that is over now, and looking back, I do believe it was a mild problem. BUT!, it was the wake up call I needed to give my health a higher priority!
Whether I am chosen or not, I am determined to have better nutrition, and better physical condition for myself!
I have my pictures and measurements for the 'before' already done, looking forward to doing my 'after' information.

My very best wishes to all who have already been chosen. Life really isn't much without good health.
Ginny

Unknown said...

I was disappointed not to get a place on the program but am delighted to see there's another chance to get on and put it and myself to the test. If this doesn't burn away my flabby tummy then I don't know what will. Am ready to give it my all & then some if picked. Consistency means results, plain and simple!

jeff said...

Hi Dax
Seeing as their seems to be a second chance to get in to your program i hope you will give me an entry ticket as i really NEED, WANT and promise to do EVERYTHING needed to get to those elusive ( so far for me ) 30 pounds. I hope very much you will give me the chance to show here what your program does.

lucky piggy said...

Hi Dax, I WOULD definitely LOVE to be part of this program / experiment.

Please,let me know if there are still places available.


Thank you!

Lucie ( your lucky piggy ;)

PS: Can't wait to start.

Unknown said...

Dax,

I'm still extremely excited at the opportunity to lose these last stuborn pounds and want to be considered as one of the alternates. I've worked my butt off the no avail these last months tryning to lose between 30 and 40 lbs. Beach season is here and I'd love to be able to actually take off some clothes when I go to the beach and get a tan.

I've tried diets, exercise, aerobics, modifying my diet, modifying when I eat and even those stupid diet pills and teas.

I need a system that works - help me lose pounds and tone up without bulking up or losing my figure.

If I could successfully do this I'd tell every person I came into contact with.

Anon said...

Congratulations to all who one. My cousin Joe got in, and was like a little kid again, he was jumping around the house extatic. I was sad I did not manage to get in, but I will be doing the elimination diet alongside him, so fingers crossed! If those people don't respond Dax, pleeeeease let me be one of your back ups, I will put in 110% and blog like crazy!!

ach said...

now!! determination as struggling with second blog attempt, trusting on its success, but am convinced it's well worth it, as I am determined and know I have to get back to the high end of thescale to self-confidence, health and achievements in life, so plotted my lasting comeback. I know support and the odd kick in the butt helps me keep on track and I will get results even if I curse... :)
in fact, I started preparing myself to follow it along as much as I can without your drill. but maybe there's a change of proper bootcamp, and I shall live to tell the tale...

Hi Dax

I would like lose 30 lbs in thirty days to give me the boost I need. Life is about to change at work and I will have a lot more free time but really want to make the most of it...

I need to lose about 4 stone and am now motivated to do something about it. I am entering myself into a 10K run later in the year as my incentive to get out there and make a difference.

If you chose me...I promise you 100% commitment.

Jill said...

Good luck guys! Enjoy the ride!

If the missing 9 don't show up, I am willing and able to jump in!

siobhan said...

congratulations to the lucky winners - really looking forward to following you all.
I too missed the original call-out as I was away on a wonderful holiday celebrating(?) turning 50 - how on earth did that ever happen?!
depressingly my holiday snaps have just shown me up as out-of-condition, unfit, overweight and very middle-aged.
WELL THAT STOPS RIGHT HERE RIGHT NOW! I am going to follow your advice and ensure that I am focussed on turning myself around.
Please bear me in mind for any extra places but if this is not possible I will work alongside as best as I possibly can.
thanks

Unknown said...

Hi Dax!

I’m STILL interested and great to hear that there is still a chance to be a guinea pig … I’d rather be called that than a beached whale lol!

Your efforts to scare me off the 30 in 30 program didn’t work and the fact I wasn’t one of the Lucky 29 hasn’t discouraged me either (although I can’t deny I was disappointed) …

I’m a true Brit (stiff upper lip and all that lol); so more focused and determined than ever to lose weight, feel fit and healthy and hopefully to change my mindset with regard food and exercise too!

I downloaded the ED over the weekend and started it this morning …

Anyway, I’m not going to beg or give you a load of spiel … all I will say is that I am serious, willing and committed and wouldn’t go AWOL or let you or your team down!

Thanks again Dax for considering me and I wish you the very best with your 30 in 30 program.

Congrats to all the selected. You probably will be experiencing a life changing event. Thanks Dax for offering this opportunity to live healthier. I am still very interested in the outcome and how well the selected do. If anybody backs out and you need more guinea pig, count me in.

Good Morning Dax! Just to let you know I am still waiting to hear from you! I started on my Elimination Diet this morning, now I want to do the workout! :)

My coolcatz30in30 blog is rolling!

Please let me know I have been chosen as one of the online guinea pigs! I will not let you, or myself, down!

Cheers!

Dax, I just received your email about some of your little guinea pigs not getting back to you yet. In that case, i would like to resubmit for a spot on the journey! I feel like I have tried everything but have never been truly challenged. Every diet, every program, had no problem letting you take the time to lose the weight, because it meant more money for them. Thirty pounds in thirty days certainly sounds too good to be true, but if it's as tough and hardcore as you say it is, i want to be challenged! As a skeptic whose done alot before, if not for my hopeless weightloss story, choose me so that I can vouch for your program. Change this weightloss skeptic into a believer and you'll get the best testamonial you've ever had!I'm willing to put in the work... If you're up for the challenge ;)

- Sincerely,
Sally the Skeptic

P.S. to all those who have been chosen already, congratulations and I wish you the best of success on your journies ahead!

Another chance?! Yippee! This is so exciting. I'm hooked.

I PROMISE to do everything you tell me if only to see the look on my daughters face when she returns from China. Oh and to feel fabulous on holiday and to be able to do my first charity 10k run.
