Done- good luck with your study :)

I started it a few weeks ago and I like it. I do it a couple of times a week after my strength training to work my abs, but I have been doing 6 week 6 pack for ages so my abs got very toned from that. I just got so sick of doing it that I needed something new to do! So far so good though- I can feel it after I do it…

Jillian Michael's No More Trouble Zones is all strength training with no jumping around, so that might suit you.

I think she's inspirational. She shouldn't have to apologize for that.

Bump because I am interested to see if there is a connection between candida and water retention.

I don't have any helpful suggestions because cereal is a huge problem food for me too. It's one thing that find impossible to stop eating once I start.

Jillian Michaels - love them. For toning try No More Trouble Zones.:smile:

I've had good results from Jillian Michael's "Killer Buns and Thighs".

You seem like a lovely person, and you look great in your pictures. You don't need to be with someone who doesn't appreciate you, and says hurtful things to you. End it with her, and I'm sure you will find someone you deserve, and who deserves you, very soon afterwards. Good luck!:smile:

i mean, go and see your doctor to try to put your mind at rest, not that seeing your doctor will make it worse. I just re-read my post and thought I should clarify! The other thing to check for anyone losing hair is - is it falling out in patches or generally all over? If it is in patches (like, you can see round bald…

It is something that happens quickly- for me I just suddenly started shedding massive amounts of hair. The three months I guess is an approximate timeframe as I'm sure everyone is different. If you google Telogen Effluvium you will see many, many mentions of it. Thyroid can also be a cause of hair loss, and that can be…

Have you ladies had any traumatic event occur around 3 months ago (or 3 months from the start of the hair shed?) It can be caused by emotional or physical stress and is called Telogen Effluvium. Very, very common. If that's what it is you will not lose all your hair and it will grow back normally once it has finished it's…

bump- good info, thanks.

6week6pack is great- it really tones the abs and works the core. But you will need to do a fair bit of extra cardio with it if you want to burn fat as it is not a huge calorie torcher, but it has given me the best abs of my life! Good luck with whatever you choose!

Bump because I'm in the same position and would like to know too.

Wow- she looks incredible! Congratulations to both of you. And I am very jealous of those dents on the side of her bum, I dream of having those...

I'm about 2 weeks into Level 1 and loving it. Already seeing results. I'll decide at the end of the weekend whether to do another week of level 1 or move to Level 2. A bit scared of Level 2....

I don't mind the taste of them, but I do find that they make me really bloated afterwards, for a few hours. Does anyone else find that?

Wow! You look amazing! Well done, you should be so proud of yourself - and proud of what you have done for your family. And what a pretty face- before and after!

I did it in about 33 days (so 3 days off throughout the whole program) and I did it while going to the gym 4 /5 times a week. I just tried to have at least an hour between finishing at the gym and doing the shred. it was pretty tough going though!

Done! Yay! So proud of myself and everyone else - what a feeling of accomplishment! I'm having a week off Jilian and just doing normal gym work, then I will start 6week6pack. What is everyone else doing next?

I actually had a "whoosh" the other night! After gaining and losing the same 1.5kg for the last month, I woke up 3 times during the night to pee (there is no way I drank enough that day for that to be justified. And the next morning I was 1.5 kg lighter and my squishy fat was less. It's very weird but it appears to be true!

I find that they make me very bloated and give me stomach cramps- but having said that I do still eat them instead of pasta sometimes! Just don't eat them before going out for the evening!

There is a possible explanation. This article has been quoted a few times, and I hope it's true, because I also have "squishy" fat that I am hoping is close to going! http://www.bodyrecomposition.com/fat-loss/of-whooshes-and-squishy-fat.html

I started on Tuesday and I did it again yesterday, but I'm only doing it on days when I don't work out at the gym (I don't have the time or stamina to add an extra 20 minutes onto my hour and a half at the gym!). So I will end up doing it 3 times a week, hopefully. So far it's been fine- I am pretty fit though and I have…

I hope that you never lose your sense of humour, you're hilarious!

Thanks so much for all your replies, based on what you have all said I will do 30 day Shred first. If I do it 3 days a week when I am not working out at the gym it will take me a few months to work through, then I can always try Killer Buns and Thighs after that. Thanks again for your help.

Anyone? Thanks!

2 sets done plus abs as well, after a 1 hour walk.
