Getting smaller but not dropping pounds
I'm confused, hope someone can help. I exercise regularly and I've just started week 8 of JM's Body Revolution. In those 8 weeks, I've dropped a dress size but I've only lost around 4lbs. I've been trying to train myself not to worry about what the scales say but I'm still curious as to how I'm getting smaller without…

Wheel push-ups
Hi all I'm currently in my last week of BR (woohoo!) and I'm having really difficulties with the wheel push-ups in Workout 12. I can get my hands by my head but can't seem to get my head off the floor, never mind do the push-up - either on two feet or one! Has anyone else struggled with this? I remember I used to be able…

NSV - size 8!
My NSV for this week - fitting into a (UK) size 8 top when I've never worn a size 8 anything in my life! Also just had a colleague who has been on holiday for a couple of weeks compliment me on my 'shrinking figure', which put a spring in my step!

Increasing weights/dumbells
I'm currently doing Jillian Michaels' Body Revolution and have been doing her workouts (30DS, RI30) for quite a while. I've been using 2kg weights (I know, lift heavy....) for about 6 months now and feel I could manage heavier weights, certainly for some of the exercises. Should I go to 3kg or straight to 4kg? Obviously I…

2 small NSV's in one weekend
I finally gave in and went jeans shopping yesterday; I'd refused to try on smaller jeans for ages because I was convinced I wouldn't get into them but when I realised I could get my jeans off without undoing them, I thought it was time to give it a try. And they fitted! I even did a little victory dance in the changing…

Bob Harper workout DVDs
Has anyone done any of Bob Harper's workout DVDs? I mainly do Jillian Michaels' workouts (we have a love/hate relationship!) but fancy a bit of variety. How do they compare in terms of intensity and difficulty?

Put on weight! :(
I've been using MFP, eating 'clean' and exercising religiously for 8 weeks now. After the first 4 weeks I weighed myself and I'd lost 6lbs which was great, but I've just weighed myself again and I've put on a pound! I've just finished RI30 and started 6 Week 6 Pack this week and feel like I've been working really hard. I'm…

FInishing RI30, what next?
I've just started week 4 of Jillian Michael's Ripped in 30 which I started after finishing 30 Day Shred. I really like the 30 minute workouts as I can get them done first thing before work. Any suggestions as to what I could do next? I've been debating buying her Body Revolution for a while but it's expensive and keeps…

Should I be eating my calories earned from exercise?
Apologies if this has been asked before but I'm relatively new here! I'm using MFP to log my food and exercise and although I've set myself quite a low calorie allowance, I've been earning around 200 calories a day doing 30 Day Shred. Should I be eating these or does it defeat the object? I do find I'm hungry after I work…
