Hey ladies! I started Turbo Fire on January 23rd with a goal to lose 31 lbs and reach my goal weight of 135 lbs. I have been 135 lbs before so it is a number I know that can be achieved. This is the second time that I have lost weight in my adult life. In 2005 I was 170 lbs and got down 145 lbs about a year or so later. I was a Bally's member and did kickboxing and strength training classes while moderately watching what I ate. After a big event that I was aiming to lose the weight for, I stopped working out and I ate whatever I wanted since I felt like I didn't have to deprive myself anymore. Needless to say I gained all of the weight back. For me, 170 is the weight where I think to myself something has to be changed, I think a lot of people have a weight or size where they say enough is enough. For me that's 170 and a size 10 pants, I didn't want to go any larger. This time around, I am aiming for a lifestyle change and I am not losing weight for any occasion, I just turned 30 and I didn't want my 30's to be about oh I wish I was this weight or this size blah blah blah.

Below are my 8 week results on Turbo Fire. I have lost 16 lbs and not sure how many inches as I never took measurements. I am pretty proud of my progress thus far but still have a lot of work to do. After looking at these pictures I need to really focus on trying to incorporate the weighted gloves in more as I want to get rid of the back fat! Lol! I am so ashamed of my before photos and how I really let myself go, but I am hoping this will give someone motivation to keep pushing play!

Oh and I am 5'3"
