HI everyone :)

My name is Kelly from little old New Zealand (lord of the rings if you don't know us any other way) and although I'm not big (only a size 12 NZD which is about a 8-10 US I weigh 89kg, well I did 5 days ago.

I have been doing religiously everyday the 30 day shred and at least 40mins of zumba I LOVE IT! :) zumba is awesome and even though I look like some sort of dancing beached whale it is definately the best thing to happen to me in AGES (however my partner will NEVER see me do it).

Last night I went over to my parents house who I told I was beginning my weight loss adventure. I want to get my wasit down below 80cm as the recommended maximum for a healthy female- wish me luck! A family friend who has known my since birth told me it'll never happen, im destined to be big! BOO HOO :( feeling a little defeated before I left I jumped on the scales and I HAD LOST 1.6kg (I think thats about 3.5lb) in the 4 days I have been eating well and slogging myself away infront of the dvds.

I WAS...STILL AM SO HAPPY AND EXCITED!


Good luck to us all :)

    Congrats on your first week! You are destined to be ... AWESOME. So pshaw on the other person! I am in the same boat you are in, only one size larger and one year older (boo-hoo for me!). I am a 10 - 12 Canada/USA size. Feel free to add me as a friend if you want!

    Keep going at it! I would really like to try the 30 day shred and I LOVE zumba! I've been too poor to get a good video so I've just been doing it off youtube. Do you have any good zumba video suggestions?

    My favourite zumba is the cardio party! 50mins long and its hard...especially if you are a total unco :P but its so fun! i do it with my boyfriends little sister who is 12 and we have the best time! otherwise i usually just do the 20min express twice :)

    Way to go! I've been working for a week (including the Shred) and am also feeling pumped -- seeing those first few pounds come off is really exciting! Feel free to add me if you want some extra support :-)
