Bring it on Jillian!

HelloSunshine

So since starting myfitnesspal about 6 months ago, I will have weeks where I am very determined and will log in every day to make sure I am within my calorie goals. Then I will fall off for about a week because no progress is being made. All in all I lost 6 pounds in those 6 months, and while I am not complaining... Its just not good enough for me.

I took a look at my lifestyle to see why even when eating within my calorie limits, I wasn't loosing as much weight as I wanted to. One day on this website I finally clicked on the Jillian Michaels add and decided to sign up for her website... and after 2 days, I am hooked!

While I still love this site for logging in and counting my calories (much easier then on her site) her site is AWESOME for meal planning. I realized that I am eating a bunch of junk. So I followed her plan, purged our cabinets of all the gross stuff and went grocery shopping. Let me tell you, I have never spent so much time in a produce section in my life! Saturday and Sunday I followed her recipes for breakfast, lunch, snack, and dinner. The fiance was a little hesitant at first because he is a meat and potatoes kind of guy... but now he is loving it too. The foods we are eating are so pure and natural and good calories. We both noticed how much more energy we have and how much longer we stay full. Plus I am extra happy because we have a hectic schedule and the meals are quick and easy to do.

I woke up at 4:30 this morning feeling well rested, energized and excited to tackle my day. Tonight I add in working out along with following her meal plans and I can't wait to see where it takes me.

So.. bring it on Jillian...... Kick my butt! No Mercy

And if anybody else has signed up for this program and wants to start a group to keep each other motivated/answer questions/ etc let me know
