I haven't drank pop in years. Only on an occassion if I'm out drinking and I get a mixed drink and a diet ends up being my mixer but that's like once every 5 months or so. And I don't hardly eat bread. Or carbs really. I mean, I've lost 60 lbs and all this weight/toned up all strictly on diet. I've not done any exercise…

I hope so. Now, I don't go to a gym. I don't have time or the money for a membership. Single mom of 2. But I have a treadmill and lots of workout video's. I have a few dumbbells and a few free weights. But I'll be doing my 30 Day Shred starting Monday. Not everyday but at least 3 days a week.

30DS is 30 Day Shred by Jillian Michaels.

Well there's 4 pictures. 2 of which are very similar. One was taken in June and the other yesterday. Yes they are close. Very. I honestly didn't see a different which is why I posted to see if anyone else saw one. Because we almost never see a difference but we need others to see a difference.

When I started my weight loss journey I was a size 16. That was January 2011. I believe when I bought that bikini I was wearing a 12 which was last August when I bought it. And actually they are pretty baggy in the butt part. But I believe if my butt gets firm and perks up a little it may be okay but next summer I will…

Sweet! It's cute. First one I've bought since I was 14. LOL Yes, all on a diet. I'm going to be doing 30DS and my treadmill and free weights randomly. Think that will help?

I did say I could take the bad.... I read your first line and was like "Wow." LOL I know from last year to now there's a huge difference. But I was just wondering from June to now. LOL I've gone from a size 16 pants to a size 6. And some 8's. But thank you!!! :-)

Yes, I am very happy with myself with the pic from last August to today. That is obviously a huge difference. And to think I thought I was doing good last August enough to buy that. That was the first bikini I had bought since I was like 14. But I started out a lot heavier than that picture in August too but no pictures…

LOL.. but he's right! Your lower tummy has lifted quite a bit! I have the "gut" that is starting to hang a bit also.. would love to know how you did it! [/quote] Honestly, I have no clue how I did this. That's my baby pooch as I call it. And I want it to go away and be more flat and more smooth, not so wrinkly. I say to my…

Thank you! :) But after taking the pics side by side I can't see a difference from June to now. But I'm kind of glad I did take the pic because I'll be starting to work out on Monday. And I've already taken measurements.

Okay, so for some of you that have mentioned my arms. I have not worked out. I don't have a membership. I'm a single mom of two kids who works full time and goes to school. But I am starting next week to working out. I did this all on diet. BUT, I took these 2 pics of my arms about a week or two ago. And don't even ask…

Through my whole journey of losing 60 lbs I have not had a work out routine. It was all diet. I'm just now starting to work out to tone and firm things up. Thanks everyone!

Anybody else?

I want to do the Brazilian butt lift but I can't afford it. And I've bought so many work out video's without actually doing them. Including the butt bible and 30DS. So I'm trying to use what I already have. I have 6W6P, 30DS, Butt Bible, a few biggest loser video's I believe, Slim in 6 video's and a few random ones too. I…

You look great. I think I've tried this video 10 times at least and can NEVER get past the first day. I always wake up the next day so SORE that I can't push myself hard enough. Did you lose the 15 lbs doing the 30DS? That's awesome. Your results are great! I'm hoping you gave me the motivation I needed to pick it up and…

Yeah I have a scale now that I've had for about a year but it only does lbs. I want one that does lbs and also tells me what my body fat is as well because I have NO clue and I want that to start going down as well!

BUMP

If your looking for a cheap way to "buy" weights though, use gallon milk jugs. Rinse them out really good and fill them with water at first then as you need them to get heavier fill them with sand. They are free/cheap weights and work great! And they work! :)

Thank you again everyone for your encouraging words! :)

I've already told you but I'm gonna tell you again, great job so far!

WOW! Thank you all so much for the amazing words! They are so encouraging! It's such an emotional journey through the ups and downs, that some the words you've said has made my eyes a little watery! :) Yes, I feel a lot better! It's an amazing feeling!

For a long time I was eating 1200 calories. Most days I went over though usually because of dinner. It honestly was rare that my day ended up being perfect in eating. And still to this day is the same. I just eat more around 1500. Make sure to take before and after pics! They make a HUGE difference when you see them side…

This really made me smile! Thanks! :)

Thank you very much!!!

I don't know why a few of them posted so big??? They seem to be all the same size on my end but some posted bigger than the others... anybody know why?
