A month ago I started to plateau so I decided to kick it up a notch. So, three weeks ago I started the 30DS. It has been cut short, due to health, but I was over the moon with my results that I had to share! I never broke my plateau but I did lose EIGHTEEN inches!!
Upper Stomach: -7 inches
Waist: -1 inch
Hips: -3 inches
Thighs: -2 inches each side
Calves: Same
Arms: -1 1/2 inches each side
This past month I really struggled with the scale, even watching it go up a couple lbs. Everyone reminded me to take my own advice, "Trust the process"! I did, never wavering. I kept eating well, exercising, drinking my water, and getting my sleep! It paid off!! Below are pictures on Day 1 of 30DS and Day21 of 30DS. Also, a picture of an outfit I use to "live in"before summer started and now I can't wear at all!!! I have next to nothing to wear anymore. My body is changing so fast that I can't even justify buying new clothes, living in my workout clothes (which are also about ready to fall off of me)! LOVE these kinds of problems!
So, let my lesson learned be your lesson learned ... TRUST THE PROCESS! When you do what you are supposed to do, change will happen. It may not happen on the scale but it happens!![:) :)](https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/resources/emoji/smile.png)

Guns? I think I see some forming?! "Wings" are getting smaller, more toned.

Wonderful, it's great to see your smile - you just look so happy! I'm afraid I don't know what 30DS is...can you help me out?0

Thanks ladies! The 30DS is a 30 day circuit training program from Jillian Micheal's. You can find it on YouTube. It isn't easy but the results are absolutely worth it!0

Awesome! I hope you enjoy it. If it doesn't challenge you, it doesn't change you. THIS was quite a challenge. I am going to pick it up again in November/December. It will keep me on track through the holidays to boot!
Good luck to you!0 -

Thank you so much. I have been dealing with health issues as well and it is trying. However, I refuse to go back to the "old me". So, I trust the process and KNOW it will get better. You hang in there sweetie! You are on the right path.0 -

Fabulous work, good for you. :flowerforyou:
My MIL calls me that and I still get so shy about it. I have been many types of a woman but never the shrinking kind. I think I could get used to this!Thanks for the kudos!

Good job; you've inspired me!
I started working out with a trainer 2 weeks ago, and I started running couch to 5k a bit ago (now on week 8 where you run 28 solid minutes). My scale has gone up in this time, but I've lost inches and I look better. I'm going to take your advice and trust the process.0 -

Good for you! Yea, I went up two lbs this month. I got really down about it but now, after seeing these results, I am over it. I *KNOW* that muscle weighs more than fat and I *KNOW* that I lost fat and gained muscle this month. I am excited.
Trust the process is my mantra. I say it every single day, MANY times of day. It isn't easy but I know that if I eat well, exercise, drink water, and get sleep that I will get healthy and fit. It hasn't failed me since I started this journey.0 -
Great work ! Good for you , seeing pictures like these really motivate me so thanks for sharing
and hopefully ill be brave enough to post mine post insanity
