Phase 1 is officially over and I thought I'd share results. I also have some photos. As a disclaimer, I still have a lot to lose and know there's LOTS of room for improvement. I know the pictures aren't pretty :).

From a numbers perspective, I lost 15.9 lbs in the first phase and a total of 10" overall (I measure everywhere). I was a bit disappointed in the inches, particularly that I only lost a couple of inches off my waist, hips, chest (each), but I know it's all about progress and not perfection. The weight loss also seems high, but I was eating TERRIBLY up until I started, so I'm sure a chunk of that is intial water weight.

Here are some progress pics (I hope I do this right):

I'm excited to see what Phase 2 brings!!

    Great job! I'm suprised you only lost 10 inches. It looks like SO much more from your pictures-- especially your waist and hips! Keep it up!

    I uploaded my photos to photobucket (it's a free website). I followed amazing directions under a post in the Success Stories message board. It's like the 2nd or 3rd posting listed (it's a fixed one, so it's always on the top).

    Awesome! Great job! I started JMBR 3 days ago and cant wait to see results. I am doing Weight Watchers along with the workout program instead of Jillians meal plans, so hopefully I will still get good results. Thanks for the motivation!!! Cant wait to see results from Phase 2! Keep us posted!
