Thank you everyone!

Thank you! I think I should do some work on my protein intake :)

Thank you for your reply! I agree about the difference between an apple and a candy bar, and also I do have a terrible obsession with sweets, I've pulled away from it and happily go for the healthier options. Aaaaah I hate avo! Something about that mushy texture, but I'm sure there's some magic way to make it edible :) I…

Thank you! For your advice, I will definitely check it out!

Thank you for your advice! I am aware that the calorie burns aren't 100% accurate :) but honestly I'm not too worried if I'm not burning exactly what the site says, I just enjoy doing my 90 mins of JM and 60 minute walk :) I was actually wanting to do strength training here and there.. just need to work out when and what…

For a second you scared me! Thought I was living in the wrong month! Thank you! I'm really not hellbent on losing this much so quickly, this is just my goal weight and I'm hoping to get as close to it if possible by October :) It's just me setting a personal little goal to motivate myself somewhat!

Thank you everyone this was really helpful! Do you think that my goal is realistic?

From what Joanne had said and a little research, I think we should be fine! I love Ripped in 30, am starting it after I finish the Shred! But my lower body being my problem area, I do Killer Buns and Thighs also. Then I have a little loose skin on my stomach, so I added in 6 weeks 6 pack! I don't feel exhausted doing all…

Thank you! What's the Kickboxing like? Sounds terrifying to be honest! :)

Hello :) I'd love to be there for you! Feel free to add me if you want, Good luck!!

Hi there :) It's different for everyone, I lost about 10kgs in the first 2 months or so, no exercise, lots of water (About 4litres, eating normally) Everyone was actually worried as I was deathly pale and losing weight so fast. And then it stopped and I maintained my weight breastfeeding until this year March. I stopped…

Hi there, I do it five days a week with 2 of her other videos, it is torture, sumo squats, argh! But honestly the results are amazing, I disliked it at first, but after the first week you start enjoying it!

Eurgh I sounded like a fitness dvd sales rep :D

Hello there! Have you ever considered buying a workout dvd? Jillian Michaels has an amazing variety, I have about 4 of them, the most popular would be 30 Day Shred, it works I promise! For lower area but a little harder is Killer Buns & Thighs, etc etc Google reviews and results, I promise it has done so much more me! And…

I'm a piercer myself and my piercings have always given me great bouts of confidence, Go for it!!! Just make sure you go to a good piercer and use good jewelry! Don't switch your jewerly for the first month or two to avoid irritation and... salt water washes every morning and night! :)

I've done about two weeks in the past and a week of level 1 here and there, so I am yet to complete the full 30 days! But honestly I saw results after 5 days and was super chuffed!!! I'm wanting to take pictures/measurments every week :D so will totally report my progress!

Starting tomorrow! :smiley:

I'm in love with sweets, I'll eat sweets any time of day, no matter how I'm feeling! Trust me I'm aware of the fact that cutting sweets out of your life is incredibly hard, they look pretty in the packaging and they're awesome. I actually stopped breastfeeding by day just recently so picked up weight! Been snacking like…

Thank you :smile: I will do that!

Thank you! :smiley: I shall check it out!

Thank you! I'm usually quite skeptical about the MFP calorie burn thingy.. so usually I take my minutes down by atleast a third of the original amount.. if I burn more then Yay for me. Sadly I don't have a HRM... sigh! Thank you again for your response :smile:

Eek! That sounds scary difficult! I understand though, and I'm sure you will manage, and benefit greatly from doing things this way... however teamwork is apparently an important skill to learn. Sigh! Don't stress! It's never too late :) I think you just need to be proud of yourself to get that confidence, set your goals…

True! TPBM Dislikes human feet

You're post totally reminds me of me :p I am terrified of people, I was teased and bullied growing up.. I guess I was the 'quiet' weird girl in school, it got so bad in high school that besides for my parents divorce and grans death, I dropped out. I felt everyone was looking at me, talking about me, laughing at me etc. I…

Thank you!! :) (*)

Beautiful :)

I've been missioning to get my body in shape since my daughter was born.. okay well, I've mainly procrastinated :s I came across Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred and in 5 days I noticed a slight change, since then I've become a tad obsessed, and gotten a lot of her other dvds.. killer buns and thighs is also awesome. but I…
