Hiya fellow MFPallers!

Sooooo i go on holiday in 11 days (im counting) and ive just bought a new bikini as my old ones doesnt fit anymore!

In October 2011 i decided to start trying to lose weight for Summer 2012, giving me plenty of time to fall off and get back on the diet wagon repeatedly!! lol!

I completed Jillians 30 day shred before christmas and since christmas i have invested in a cross trainer and started Jillians Ripped in 30 (today is day 3 week 4)

I stuck to 1200 calories as much as i could, i still eat a bit of crappy foods just not as often, not always a clean diary, somethimes i go over and i dont always eat my exercise calories back!

I have learnt that instead of eating healthy and exercising in the run up to that speacial occasion or holiday, it has to be incorporated into everyday life, forever!!

And that what i plan to do!!

I have 2lbs yet till goal, and i doubt ill lose them before my holiday but ill aim to lose them in time for being a maid of honour for my bestie in August. And i am aiming to tone everywhere more, so when i jump i dont 'Jiggle' lol

SW 128.5lbs CW 114lbs GW 112lbs Height 5'2''

And now for the pics... (hope they work!)

October 2011/Today

I apologise for my vile underwear in the befores! :-/

See how most of sentences start with 'I' this is because this way has worked so far for me, everyones body is different you just have to work out what works for you!

Good Luck in all of your jouneys to a healthier YOU!

    I am at your starting point basically. I have about 20 lbs I want to lost but I want to tone up so I will gain some weight back, but it will be muscle! You look great and since I am 5'0, you are my inspiration! When you don't have a lot of weight to lose, it can be harder to lose it! Congrats!

    You look great! We have similar goals. I'm 5'2' and I want to be at 110 or 112 with muscles! The muscles are coming along nicely. I just need to get the scale down more. Way to go!

    Thanks :-) I'd say I was happier with my results from 30DS but probably only because i lost more pounds and I kind of focus on that more than I should! I find it's more about inch loss with ripped x

    Thank you! I'd like a few more muscles too, my arms and back need the most work i think! Good Luck with your goals! X
