Hi!
I'm from Poland, English is not my first laguage, so please, feel free to corect all my mistakes.

Here's my story

I lost 10 kg ( about 22 lb) since February. I was just on Dukan Diet ( very popular in my country now), but for about last 5-6 weeks I haven't lost any kilograms, so I was looking for some exercises. My friend told me about Jilian Michaels 30DS, so I googled it for some stories and results, and that's how I got on this site :bigsmile:
I get so motivated every time I read succes stories and see the pics :love:

Oh, and I'm 170 cm ( 5,6 ft) and my starting weight was 93 kg ( 205 lb), current weight is 83 kg ( 183 lb).
My dress size is now 42/44 that is 14/16 UK, I'm down about 2 sizes ( not quite there yet).
I'm 31 year old woman, mother of 19 months old son :smile:

I'm so lost with all that lb and ft, lol :tongue:

I'm getting familiar with this calorie counter, besides on Dukan Diet you don't have to count calories, so for now I will logg only my exercises.

I'm on Day 6 of 30DS and today I did Turbo Fire HIIT, so I'm all wet, but happy :))


Hope to meet some friends, who will help me to got to my goal, that is " Not to be "plus size" till the end of the year" :flowerforyou:

    Welcome Marcelina! Congrats on the weight loss so far and I know you will get to where you want to be. This website is wonderful. I have a 6 month old baby myself and am up at least twice a night with her. I am really hoping we can get her to sleep the night before she's a year.:smile:

    My son slept all night for the first time when he was about 2,5 months old. Now he wakes up during the night, when his teeth's coming out. So, generally I don't complein ;)) ( I'm a Tracy Hogg fan, her books really helped me)

    Thank You all for posting. It's such a nice place here, with very nice people :happy:
