i absolutely love this program. I love the workouts and the calories burn that I get in 25 minutes!

Having said that, I'm frustrated. When I touch my body I can feel curves I've never had before but the measuring tape reflects NOTHING and the scale is moving slowly (don't care so much about pounds it's the inches and transformation im after)
Maybe I don't know how to use the damn measuring tape.

I don't follow the eating plan (a lot of those foods are expensive) but I count calories and I measure EVERYTHING. I eat a lot of protein and veggies and sometimes sweets but I measure portions and I count.
(I'm also PMSing right now as I'm super pissed off)

What can I be doing wrong? I'm definitely working these workouts hard and building my endurance.

    Then you're eating too much.

    Your ticker says you've lost 17lbs. How long have you been doing the program? It takes time to see results. Keep it up.

    Open your diary so we can judge whether you're actually eating more than you think you are.

    I actually lost 34 but when I started MFP I was at a lower weight and I don't know how to change my starting weight.
    How do I open my diary?

    So you said you like the new curves that have shown up since you started the program, so I guess I don't understand what the problem is?

    scale obsession...arbitrary number is all that really matters...

    She said in her initial post that she doesn't really care about that either, so I just don't see the issue. The only thing she said was that the measuring tape wasn't changing, but she is seeing and liking a change in how her body looks. So yeah, I don't get what the issue is.

    i thought she said scale and measuring tape are not going down….????

    she said the scale is moving very slowly and to op are you measuring in the same place every time? check out this site it might help you a bit more http://www.sparkpeople.com/resource/fitness_articles.asp?id=1281 you will probably need to copy and paste the link

    There's a couple of things in the OP.
    Every Beachbody program depends heavily on the meal plan. Just 20% of your results are the actual work outs.
    Second, Beachbody programs are built around a specific timeline for a reason. The results really do not show themselves usually until closer to the finish line. Considering t25 is a 60 Day program, unless you are within a couple of days of finishing, give it more time and clean up your diet.
