    Not really. Hopefully by spring lol. I'm only 4'10" so losing weight feels impossible.
  • We have the same goal of losing 20, I have been doing this since Saturday and it has really helped me watch how much I'm eating. Already lost a couple pounds already. I love it, good luck to you!

    How are you doing it? I used to know all these tips and tricks but in the past year, I don't think anything's working anymore.
  • Breastfeeding helps me lose an extra 600 calories so I have a little extra help right now. And as I go a log with the calorie counter it helps me think my meals out more. I'll also be starting insanity. I did day one last week but my calves hurt like hell for 4 days :(. Overall from my experience, I have three kids, cardio is your best friend, stay away from soda and fast food.
