    Just got my T25 in the mail today and I'm really excited to start! Hopefully we will all motivate and keep each other on track :smile:

    1. My name is Amanda. I'm 33 and live in a small South Dakota town.

    2. I'd love to lose around 10 pounds and be more tone.

    3. Currently I do shakes in the morning and try to watch what I eat.

    4. I'm not doing Shakeology, I've tried it but just didn't like the taste.

    5. No physical limitations.

    6. Motivation is my weakness. I start off strong and tend to have the "all or nothing" mentality. So if I slip up or don't work out it snowballs.

    7. I've done TurboFire in the past and had great success. I was able to meet my fitness goals but slowly over time the weight came back on.

    1. Ryan Tomlinson - 27 - Around the Atlanta Area

    2. Weight wise, I would like to loose 40 pounds. Overall, just would like to feel and look healthier. Most all my weight is in my gut. I lost 50 pounds 5 years ago and just slowly added 40 of it back on.

    3. I am netting 1550 calories a day. Trying to make sure I eat breakfast. Try to eat 3 meals a day and two small snacks.

    4. I am not, I may start. I have a bag of visalous shake from a friend I may start first.

    5. Not really. I do have a hard time the the rhythm of some of the moves. But getting better each time. I also have to modify some, but decreasing the amount.

    6. Temptation Foods. But so far so good. I know a lot of people do cheat days. I fear if I allow a cheat day I will end up quitting. So no cheat days right now for me. Maybe in the future once I am more disciplined.

    7. I did 11 days of insanity about year ago. but ended up quitting. Last time I lost 50 pounds. I just walked and ran at the park.

    I started 10/30 and haven't missed a day yet. So glad to find a group to keep accountable with.
