    I started on Monday and have stayed under my calories and haven't seen any losses yet, in fact the scale has gone up a little bit. I'm eating the same calories as before and eating better, started T25 and started taking my Catalyst again. What gives?!?! I'm going to stick it out and hope that I see a loss soon! I'm sitting @ 250 so it's not like I don't have it to lose!

    I started Monday. I hate him with a fiery passion only because he kicks my butt. I love it. I am doing the Mod version on writing it down. That way I know when I can do the full and see my progress. I also am doing pictures that way I can see the difference. I would recommend recording weight and inches. Some people lose weight some inches. It's hard but I like it a lot. I do take small breaks but do the best I can. Good luck every one.

    I'm on my 2nd round of T25. My first round I only did Alpha/Beta. This time I will be adding Gamma. I didn't lose any weight through Alpha the first time. I lost inches-a lot of inches, but no weight. I attribute that to following their nutrition guide which was not enough calories for me. Everyone is different. Once I figured out my calorie intake, through Beta I started losing. Overall I lost 18.5 inches and 8lbs. Hoping for the same results again this time. Side note: I didn't lose a lot during the alpha cycle this time either. This is my first week of Beta and I already lost a pound. So my body must really be adjust during Alpha to lose inches first. Everyone is different.

    Follow the modifier if you need to. Don't get injured. My first few weeks of Alpha, the first time, I think I followed the modifier 95% of the time. Then as I got stronger, I would think "Hmm...I think I can do this now"...so I'd try. Don't give up. Try a move here and there and be amazed at your progress of becoming stronger and more fit! :smile:

    Thank you for this. I'm starting T-20 five on Monday and I'm really worried about starting it is I'm really out of shape. Your testimony was helpful and inspiring.

    Thank you for the advice. T25 Week2Day1 in the books.

    I was a little lenient on my calories over the weekend, but saw a 3.8 lb loss this morning! My body must've needed some food! LOL.

    Listen to you body. I was HUNGRY during that first time I did alpha, crabby hungry...1600 is close to my BMR I found out--so I was not eating enough. You have to provide your body with enough fuel to get through these work outs!! :-)
