I am 5'7.5. When I was chunky, I had issues with regular jeans. I am down to 138 and now they are fine. My conclusion: my butt has shrunk dramatically and needs less jeans to pull over it! Kind of dumb but a coworker is having the same problem. She gained weight and now has high waters. Does that make sense?

One more key thing - plan your meals and cut up fruit/veggies the night before. It takes time but it is key to being successful!

I have lost 32 lbs since New Years. How I did it? Start slow with Jillians 30-day shred and now I'm almost done with Body Revolution. I think cardio is the key. For me working out in the AM is the best. I also eat a salad with tuna/egg on it for lunch every day so that I can enjoy more calories during the day. Changing…

You can do it! Just go slow and steady!

Hi. I've lost 33 lbs since January 1st. The first 6 weeks went very slow! I was so frustrated. I read an article that you have to find the right time of the day for your workout. So, I changed my night time workout to an early morning workout and it sped up my metabolism. I have a log book that I wrote down my exercise…

I thought the same thing! 8 minutes to 20 minutes? I just did it and didn't stop! Woo Hoo! Granted I did go slow so I could breath!! I feel great!! How did it go for you?

Oh, man! I am scared. I start Week 11 on Monday! I do find the exercises are hard the first few times but by the time I get them mastered, the 2 weeks is over! Think I'm going to keep doing these workouts during the summer.

I am having the same problem! I have lost 30 lbs since New Year's - just got divorced - now where did my motivation go? I ate Chinese buffet yesterday - and man was it good!!! I felt so guilty that I worked out 3x!!!! Please add me - we can motivate each other!!!!

I am on Week 4. I am not running/jogging for speed. I am running/jogging for time. For me, I'm not trying to win a race. I am trying to learn to breath and run without stopping. I think you should go for Week 4 just slow it down and breath.

I just did workout 10 this morning for the first time!!! Wow. It made me sweat!!!! It will take me two weeks to master it and then I'm off to Workouts 11 and 12. I'm loving this program!!!

Thank you all! I am really happy and feel healthier than I ever have! It was a struggle getting the weight to come off but once I found my best exercise time of the day, it seemed to have sped up my metabolism!

Focus on positive things. Working out makes you look and feel great! Focus!!!!!

Wow. I want your abs! Okay, so I just joined this group and am looking for something for after Jillian's 90 Day Revolution - which I'm almost done with Week 8. Lost fat - now I want to see more muscle. Do you guys recommend this?

I have lost 28 lbs. Eating healthy and exercising. I see muscles now! But my family and coworkers are saying I look sickly and frail! What? Are you nuts? I am feeling strong and confident!!! Oh, and yes egwene. I love the low cal menu items! Now that's a treat to eat good when I go out too!!!!

I workout at 3:45am and don't eat prior too. I think I would puke if I did! I have a protein shake afterwards. I love the morning workouts - it's like a big cup of coffee!!!!

I just wanted to bring this to the top again! It is awesome! I have it everyday for my morning snack!!!!!!:tongue:

Hi Sarah, I'm in your boat. I am doing the 90 Day Revolution in the AM but I added Jillian's ab DVD at night. I don't think it's overkill. I love how I feel. Our training is more aerobic than weight lifting.

I walk through the cemetery too and a similar situation happened. My 18-year old son said a lot of kids smoke pot there. I carry my cell and pepper spray from now on. Better safe than sorry!

No way. That is why I filed for divorce. I deserve better!

I retired from the Navy. My daughter is currently active duty Navy and my son is joining the Marines in July. Now to work on my 13-year old to get her to join! It's a great way to start your life. Not everyone is a lifer but you definitely will learn a lot! Good luck to everyone!

I don't know about the Victoria's Secret deal. If you're just friends, it should be something else. Like maybe, some kind of self improvement rewards. Like 10 lbs - a workout shirt or get her nails done, etc. She should also be in charge of your weight loss rewards. But just remember - you will drop weight much faster and…

I agree. 600 calories is my max for dinner. I ate a 8' thin crust cheese pizza from Monical's the other night - not worth it! I could have had a huge salad with practically anything I wanted and icecream. Funny - I get 600 calories and I still find a way to pig out!

I drink at least half of my weight (in oz) in water. I love Sassy Water. It's really hard to drink plain ole water - unless it's hot out - and we are not there yet in Illinois!!!!

I got mine at Walmart for $10. Bought 6 pack abs too. I like to work out in the morning and at night. So I kind of switch off doing 90 day revolution in the morning and then choosing a workout at night. Now that it's getting nice out, I'd like to get outside after work and jog or take a long walk. And don't forget,…

I started with the 30 Day Shred and have moved on to the 90 day revolution. It will be a good starter for you!

Okay, I'm back. Sorry that I didn't reply. I don't know much about Herbalife diets. I just like to do one meal replacement shake a day (with protein powder). My favorite is the Elvis Shake. Peanut butter and Banana - I can give you the recipe if you'd like. Anyway, 16oz for 330 calories. Holds me over all morning. Then for…

I just started herbalife shakes this week. I've lost most of my weight already so I'm mainly doing a breakfast shake for nutrition. Are you in the UK? I've been making Elvis Shakes - man, those are yummy!

Don't take diet pills! Bad!!!! I have lost 23 lbs since new years. Plan your meals and document on MFP. It will help you stay on track. Exercise 30 minutes a day. I did Jillian Michaels 30 day shred for 60 days and now I'm just starting the 4th week of Body Revolution. I see muscles now! Will power - just make a plan and…

I cut down to one cup with 2 Tbl of Fat Free French Vanilla. That's 50 calories. I also use a 1/2 packet of Splenda

Today is my last day of Kickstart! 13 workouts done in 7 days - one to go. Do any of you continue to do two workouts a day? It's kind of fun - although with the weather getting nicer, I'm heading outside soon!
