Hi all! I've always HATED taking pictures so when I actually saw what I looked like in the first pic below, it changed EVERYTHING for me. I didn't look like myself and I was absolutely DISGUSTED, I'm 5'1" & I weighed in at 205lbs. From that day I vowed to make a change. I started with small changes, like cutting out the soda, then I started working out. I started out with speed walking & jogging intervals on my treadmill & then got into 30 Day Shred. I switched it up and started doing Insanity, and so far I've done 4 rounds of it. I just started Jillian Michaels 6 week six pack and although I'm not super skinny, I don't really want to lose much more weight, I'm looking to finish up my toning & working on my abs. I'm currently hovering at 133-134, and I'm only looking to lose about 4-5 more lbs, I originally had set my goal at 125 lbs but I'm wearing a size 1 to 3 in jeans and I can actually shop in the kids dept now lol, so I figure I'm almost done with the weight loss. It's more about how I feel and much less about the actual number on the scale, for me it is anyway :happy:

205 lbs & so unhappy!

    Thank you all so much ladies :happy:
  • You look amazing!!!! I've lost a lot as well, and I'm about at 140. I notice your stomach is flat. Do you do any core exercises you would recommend for this result in the video you mentioned? I'm tiny, but my belly has so much excess skin that needs to be toned...

    Thanks so much Jenn :happy: And a HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to you as well :flowerforyou: To be honest, Insanity is what got my belly shrinking. I too, had a problem with my stomach area but after I was done with my 1st round of Insanity I saw a big difference. The Insanity workout just started melting away my fat, especially in my stomach, hips and thighs & arms as well. I just started with 6 week six pack, the reason I switched it up is because I've done 4 rounds of Insanity and really wanted to switch it up and also target my abs even more since I still have alittle bit of a tummy. I've definitely become an Insanity addict lol, so I'll still be mixing it into my 6w6p rotation.

    Yowza! You look incredible! I thought about doing Insanity. After seeing your results, that's going to have to go on my wish list! I have friends who have done it, but I never looked at their before and after pics. Well done!!!
