Ive just added you :) if anyone else wants to add me feel free to :)

I struggled INSANELY with the first 3 workouts, they were very difficult, but as soon as the 4th came around, I could do every single exercise AND I dont hurt after anymore!! No aches or anything! Your body just needs to adjust, DONT GIVE UP! You can do it! Take it at your own pace, but with every workout do more and more…

I'll be doing my 4th workout today! For anyone who think they're too sore to continue doing it everyday, DO IT ANYWAY. You won't feel as bad when actually doing the shred and you'll also find that with every day you're getting stronger and better at the routines! When I first started I couldn't finish a few of the…

When I first started, (i'm on day 3 now) I struggled with push ups, sit ups, and the bike crunches (or whatever theyre called haha) but today when I did it I could do all of them!!! Yes it was hard, but each day i can do the exercises much easier! If you just keep going with it you'll keep getting better and better at…

Oh my god yes! Your stomach is sooo much flatter and your thighs are much smaller and more toned! YOU LOOK FANTASTIC!!!

I started mine yesterday too!! Just finished the second workout half an hour ago, it's insane! But I feel sooo good and its working on the spots i hate (my upper arms) I love it!! The second day doesnt feel as tough either, well to me anyway!

Thanks for your replies everyone!! It's helped me a lot :) I went for a 15min run earlier (yes, i know, thats not much, but i've only just started running and i'm now realising how unfit I am!!) i'm going to go for a long walk now with my dog :) Thanks again :3

Where can I buy it from? I just saw your page good on you!! It must be so hard to lose weight when you're already so tiny! You'll look incredible for your wedding! :) I will give it a try! I'm a bit nervous about those kind of things, as well as the jillian michaels thing, because I don't want to buy it and then have it be…

THAT is impressive!!

Thank you Wendy :3 i'll look her up! The Jillian Michaels thing just sounds scary to me! haha

One thing I've made clear in my head and to my boyfriend, is that I'm doing this for ME and no-one else! Your boyfriend probably just doesnt understand that you've gone to so much effort to get to this point, but you shouldn't pay any attention. The only praise you should be getting is from yourself :3 only you can feel…

WOW thank you so much everyone for all your stories and great advice!!! It's encouraging to know that yes people do fall off track, but they can just as easily get on track again! I just really need to try harder and stop making excuses for myself! Ive decided to use my 21st birthday as a goal, it's in october and i'd like…

i definitely would rather eat heaps in the morning then at night! but i suppose it depends on your activity levels during the day, if you eat more in the morning then you can burn it off and use it as energy during the day, but whats the point in eating heaps at night if you're only going to sleep? i try and stop eating by…

i need to lose a 2 year old too!! hahaha

i haven't read what anyone else has said, but... you have most DEFINITELY lost weight my dear! look at your arms! they're about half the size of the first pictures arms! look at your hips! that shirt clung to your hips before and now its just draped down! you're doing such a fantastic job! being the weight you were i…

i know! although ive only lost 3 pounds, ive lost quite a few more inches! im not really paying attention to the scales, more my waist and hips! its so great! :) thanks :)

I weighed in today! I've only lost 0.4 pounds which is quite *kitten* but better than nothing! i've also gone down half an inch on my waist which is nice! congrats on your weight loss! thats verrrry impressive for someone on their first week! :)

ah i know what you mean! i weighed myself before breakfast... but i'm going to blame my weight gain on the scales because one second i was 69kg, and then i did it again and i was 67kg! still, 67 is the weight i started at and i really want to start losing!! :( i think the best thing to do would just be keeping with your…

Hey, i'm no expert on this matter but i think you will find that you actually are losing fat, but gaining muscle (which weighs more than fat) ive been doing the exact same as you for 3 weeks as well and i havent really lost much, but i believe thats due to all the cardiovascular exercises i'm doing. What you should do is…

I have been through similar things to what you're saying, and i did put the weight all back on and then some, but thats because i was like 'OH MAN NOW THAT IM SKINNY LETS EAT AS MUCH AS I WANT!' and it wasn't a good idea! but its honestly what you get to, you spend so long starving yourself and then think you've gotten to…

My bf used to have quite a bit of acne around his cheeks, he tried prescriptions and everything! then last year he got proactiv, and now he has NONE at all! its all gone! you've made a good choice :)

Me tooo! I am 147pounds 5'5 i used to be 120 pounds which is when i felt my best... basically i went travelling and the weight gain just kept coming! i want to lose 27 pounds. it will put me in the middle of my healthy weight range! ps, all those girls that are tall and want to weight 110 pounds!?! that is ridiculous you…

My boyfriends mum was a size 22 (uk) and she just cut down on what she was eating, ate good food, didnt exercise and is now a size 14! it took her a year, but she's now finding it difficult to get any smaller than a 14 so she's starting to try and exercise now. I think it's possible to lose weight just by cutting down if…

Thank you! i'll have a look :) its really difficult to know how many calories you're actually having when it goes up and down due to exercise! I think i'm starting to make sense of it all now though

I'm going to put my food diary public now! thanks for all the suggestions (i haven't finished reading them all yet)

I know how you feel! I'm also looking for work and so i'm at home a lot trying to find motivation, but it happens! (eventually) I think of how good i feel after i exercise and eat well so i go outside with my ipod and jog to 5 songs that motivate me, (so about 20 mins, and i feel great after!) then i have a soccer ball and…

Oh exactly! It definitely comes down to feeling healthy, because if I'm not feeling great there's no way I'm going to stick with this routine! I'm feeling great right now, hoping I'll lose 2 pounds by Sunday! :)
