Minus 35 lbs after Insanity/Body Revolution/C25K!

I finished a round of Insanity this past weekend and after taking my progress pictures wanted to post one compared to when I first started. The first picture was taken @ roughly 181 in April after losing 7 lbs doing Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred. Since the first picture I have completed one round of Jillian Michael's Body Revolution and her Ripped in 30 dvd, Insanity, C25K and one 5k as well as one 10k (my time was 1:03!!) and a total of 35 lbs lost over 6 months! RIght now I am training for a half marathon and starting a Body Revolution/Insanity hybrid.

I started off with a 1200 calorie diet, mostly whole foods/clean eating/no processed foods with one cheat day a week and not really eating exercise calories. After a few months I upped my calories to 1500 and will eat back some exercise calories if I did a long workout (running plus insanity or something). I also don't really do crazy cheat days like before (it would make me get sick to eat too much out of my norm) but allow myself a special treat if I want it and don't go overboard (too often. lol). I usually eat more calories on Sundays if we eat lunch with family but I don't think it's a problem.

Thanks for looking!

First picture I was wearing XL shorts and size 38 sports bra. Second picture I am wearing size 10 Lululemon shorts and size 34 sports bra. Hoping to lose 15 more lbs!

    Nice work! You can see the change throughout your body--looks like you lost a bunch of inches!
    I'm at just about the same weight as you now, with the same goal. :smile:

    Yes, many inches! I haven't measured in a few weeks but I am impressed with how much has changed on my hips/stomach/chest area!

    Thanks. :)

    You look amazing! Is there only 60 days between the two pictures? I gave Insanity a go awhile back and I'm considering attempting it again now that I've lost some weight (wasn't successful the first time). I'm currently doing C25K and thought it might be too much... but with results like yours as motivation, I think I might try it! Nice job :wink:

    Well done, some great results.

    I was given Insanity recently and I'm tempted to give it a try in addition to my work outs. How did you find it to get started?
