I just finished Beta - I love this program. It is really easy on my knees, and I can fit it into my busy/hectic life!

Before:




After:



I lost 11 pounds, also, which I have been on a plateau for ages prior to doing T25!

you look awesome!

i've been using t25 for 3 weeks and i've seen tons of toning - i have a sedentary desk job so the morning workout is perfect for me!

So I am on week 2 of the programme and I have yet to weigh myself, I have also reduced my calorie intake. I tend to think two weekly weighing is sufficient and I am certainly hoping to see some results.

I love ShaunT and his passion for the programme, I also like that you can see how hard the team around him are working too. I am working out at 6.15am every morning and pushing myself as hard as I can.

I was an amateur boxer, so training hard like this isn't new to me, but I am sweating buckets and can feel my body working hard! I really hope I am not disappointed when I weight myself.

My husband started the programme about 5 weeks ago and has just moved onto Beta, he has lost around 12lbs and you can see the definition starting to show through. He has also started to combine his programme with a weights programme now that the initial weight has started to come off.

All in all I thinks its great and will update once I know my initial results.

I just realized how old this thread was- but I'll add my two cents. Any exercise program you stick to regularly will yield some sort of results. However- for me it is calories that matter the most when it comes to weight loss.

I did T25 when it first came out. I thought it was a good program. I think Shaun T is a great motivator. I didn't do the diet that came with it or the shakes. When I did T25 I hadn't truly exercised in a long time. I lost some inches and felt stronger. I was only a few pounds over a normal BMI and didn't have much to lose. However- I have knee problems and exercise induced asthma- so I followed the modifier when I needed to. I still saw results.
I enjoyed it- and it got me motivated to start exercising regularly again. It helped that it was short and I just had to follow what I was told to do without having to plan it all out myself.

Don't make the mistake of thinking this will be some sort of miracle cure program. I see people that think a program doesn't work if they aren't dropping major pounds by the end- and tend to ignore the progress they have made. Think of programs like this to help you get back in the habit of being active.

Hello All,

So I am 5.9 and weigh about 225Lbs. My thinest was 160lbs and I looked extremely unhealthy besides rock climbing I was mostly taking diet pills, I have two kids 5 and 6 and did not gain weight until the past two years. I may sound extremely big but people still tell me I look good and have an amazing looking body, somehow, not sure how. I am extremely insecure and decided to make a change on 10/02 I started T-25, I am not too sure about my weight but know I am around 225, I am really excited and already feel so much better. My thing is of course I want to get in shape but I really am afraid of losing my butt, I want my tiny waist back but would love to keep my butt, did anyone lose their behind with T-25 is it simply going to tone my body or will I lose weight as well?

A calorie deficit is what will help you lose weight.
Genetics is what will decide if you get to keep your butt or not.
Good luck

Do you have to follow their nutrition plan to lose weight or is the calorie deficit that mfp provides enough? I know the more specific answer depends on the person, but I'm asking generally. thanks!

Calorie deficit is enough.

btw: Be free to add me if you're doing T25 as well. Can compare results.

I'm on week 2 right now - workouts are really hard for me but I am modying way less than in the first week.
