Great job, congrats! Your posture has completely changed, like you mentionned. You look way more confident in the third photo :)

Great results! Thanks for the motivation. I am 6 weeks into Turbo Fire and really loving it. The first couple of weeks I lost 6 lbs and over 7 inches, but now the loss has slowed down a lot and I'm finding myself getting discouraged. I'm trying to convince myself to stay motivated and not to worry so much about the weight…

Keifer Sutherland for me too! And Jon Bon Jovi.

Thanks everybody for the replies. I was suprised to see so many people with a similar problem - I tried searching online for a solution and couldn't find anything. My problem is with any brand of sneakers that I use for working out (Asics, Addidas, Nike, etc.). I went to our local Running Room specifically to get my feet…

I understand where you are coming from. Drinking enough water is a very big challenge for me. I'm hardly ever thirsty, and can go hours without anything to drink. And when I try to force myself to drink my water, especially in the early morning, I find it sickening. But I am trying every day to increase the amount. I do…

Thanks for the reply. No calluses or even hard skin on my feet. But I will never say no to a pedicure ;)

Did you watch the version of the workout for first time users where she breaks down the moves? It makes the workout longer and ruins the flow a bit, but you only need to do it for the first few times.

Everyone has to find a program that works for them, but I can say that I've had great results so far with Turbo Fire :) It hasn't even been 2 weeks yet and I've lost 3 lbs and 1 inch off my waist. And that's without doing any Shakeology or other restrictive "diet" - just giving up junk food.

I bought the body by vi shakes back in the fall but was not serious about it. I would have a shake for breakfast a few times a week and then continue to eat like normal, so I didn't see any results. I started Turbo Fire 2 weeks ago and have seen results already so I am ready to give the shakes another (honest) try. I am…

I thought I was the only one who found the 30 Day Shred boring - I am always reading posts from people who love the video. I have tried on 3 different occassions to get through the program and each time I give up before the first week. Now I am doing Turbo Fire instead and loving it!

Bump. Going to try this out over the weekend, tnx :)

Haha, I hear you. It took me half a year to get to the point where I could keep the largest hoop from falling all the time (the larger and heavier the hoop, the easier). But I enjoyed the classes anyways, so much fun. Now I am moved on to a smaller hoop and right back to trying to keep it from falling again. All you can do…

I find zumba a great way to start - either in a live class or at home. It can be a little overwhelming at first but you quickly catch on to the choreography after a few classes and then you can just let loose and move. I'm not a dancer by any stretch of the imagination either, but I always feel like one in my zumba…

I was interested in the answers to this question b/c I am also looking for a new aerobics sneaker. I don't run but do zumba, hula hooping, kickboxing, etc. - lots of high impact stuff. I had my feet properly measured at a running store and buy my sneakers thru them. I've always found the Aasics or Adidas to be the most…

Dancing With Myself - Billy Idol. I can't listen to this song and be in a bad/down/unenergetic mood. :)

Nowhere near as funny, but my excuse lately for not getting up at 530 am to do 30 Day Shred is that I will "Just Dance.." it in the night :P

I gained weight after miscarrying on my first pregnancy, at 32 yrs old. Both myself and my husband went through a big depression and month after month of medical problems and trying to conceive (with no success) saw the weight coming on. Then I finally got pregnant again and was so happy that I didn't care too much about…

I've got it but haven't started it yet. Perhaps it's time that I do. I hear good things about it.

I'm in. I was actually thinking of giving this a go again yesterday and your message is just the push that I need to get started. Good luck everyone!

Hi, and welcome to MFP. I also want to lose 60 lbs by next year. I have an extra 30 lbs on since having my son (who is now 5 months old) and 30 lbs that I had wanted to lose before getting pregnant. This is a great site for motivation. Since joining last week I've already lost 5 lbs. I know that is mostly fluid, etc. and I…

If I were to be honest, I've been using my baby as my crutch. It's so easy to say that I don't have time to eat healthy or plan my meals because I have to take care of a 5 month old. But at some point that excuse won't hold up anymore, and I think that time is now.

Wow, I just read your profile. An army mom of 2 young children! As other posters have said, you are obviously a strong person and I wish you a very healthy and sucessful journey losing the baby weight. I am in a similar situation with my weight and need to get rid of 60 lbs. Hopefully we will be able to support each other…

I'm trying to lose 60 lbs since having my baby (who is now 5 months old) - 30 lbs of it is baby weight, the other 30 lbs is weight I was trying to lose before getting pregnant. I would love to join a group with other people needing to lose 50 + lbs, great idea. Nice meeting everyone.
