I started NROLFW on January 1st, 2012 and I just finished today on June 15, 2012. I did all of the workouts, didn't skip any workouts, and I only added 1-2 extra rest days when I was REALLY sore. I did take a week off in between Stages 1 and 2, but then I went straight through Stages 3 and 4. I took another week off before Stage 5 and I took a week off after after Stage 6.

I know a lot of women have been asking about results with the program. Mine don't appear stellar on paper, but I'm really happy with my body and how my clothes are fitting. So, without further adieu, here are my stats.

Starting stats on January 1st, 2012:

Age: 33 years old
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 117
Neck: 11.5
Bust line: 36.5 (while nursing a 5.5 month old)
Below bust: 29
Right forearm: 9
Left forearm: 8.75
Natural Waist: 26
@ Belly Button: 29
Hips: 36
Right Thigh: 21
Left Thigh: 20.5
Right Calf: 13
Left Calf: 13
Body Fat %: 19%

Ending stats on June 15, 2012

Age: 33 years old
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 113 (loss of 4 lbs.)
Neck: 12 in. (gain of .5 in.)
Bust line: 35.5 in. (loss of 1 in.)
Below bust: 27 in. (loss of 2 in.)
Right forearm: 9.5 in. (gain of .5 in.)
Left forearm: 9.5 in. (gain of .75 in.)
Natural Waist: 25 in. (loss of 1 in.)
@ Belly Button: 27 in. (loss of 2 in.)
Hips: 35 in. (loss of 1 in.)
Right Thigh: 19.5 in. (loss of 1.5 in.)
Left Thigh: 19.5 in. (loss of 1 in.)
Right Calf: 12.5 (loss of .5 in.)
Left Calf: 12.5 (loss of .5 in.)
Body Fat %: 15.1% (loss of 3.9%)

So, I lost a total of 4 lbs., lost 8.75 inches, and lost 3.9% body fat. Needless to say, I'm pretty happy with the results! I know a lot of other people probably get better results, but I was already in pretty decent shape and was just looking to "trim some fat" and get a little stronger. I think I succeeded, don't you? :smile:

    Fantastic, for your starting weight I think 4lbs lost is an amazing achievement.
    I second the trophy idea!

    Unfortunately, I didn't take pictures. :( My husband thought I was crazy for starting the program and never thought I would finish it. I could take "after pictures" but I'm afraid they wouldn't mean much.

    Thanks for all the amazing support! It's great to see I can help encourage others. :)
