My Post Baby Fitness Transformation - A Work in Progress

So, today I have my 6 week results for Focus T25 and Shakeology®.  Drumroll, please! Ha, just kidding. While not amazingly dramatic, I have been impressed with Shakeology® in particular (You can read here if interested). I haven’t done each workout all out, I haven’t even gotten every workout in, some days I changed it up a bit, some days I ate too much… very definitely not a perfect effort put in by yours truly.  Life has been chaotic - 4 month old (nursing), 2 ½ year old, 4 year old, preschool at home, major house addition/renovation...I am just doing the best that I can.

But, I still have results! Woot!

The T25 program definitely keeps you moving.  Very cardio based.  I have not been running nearly at all while doing this program, but I feel that the cardio base would make it easy to go and run.  The core and leg workouts are probably my favorite, as I enjoy strength training and I can see the difference those workouts make.  The circuit workout is still TOUGH every time!!  There is definitely enough variety in the workouts to keep me interested and going, especially as there is an alpha phase for 5 weeks, and I just started the beta phase – which has new workouts.

So, I have lost 8.6 pounds in the past 6 weeks! Not bad at all, as I worked hard all summer to lose about five.  Something about having more children seems to make it more and more challenging to get the weight to drop back off.

Here are some pictures of my progress so far... these may be deleted, but I am trying to be brave and post them for now. :)    

1 whole inch off my waist, 1 inch off my hips, 1 1/2 inches in my abdomen,  3/4 of an inch off my thighs, and even some fat loss in my arms!

I am pretty happy with the progress and am going for a 12 pound weight loss overall (in the next 4 weeks).  We shall see how it goes! I can’t cut calories too much while breastfeeding, and have had a couple weeks when I needed to increase eating to keep my milk supply up. So, for anyone not with that issue, you might even lose more…obviously one size doesn’t fit all in regard to weight loss.

Are you ready to join our challenge group and get your fitness transformation underway? You can join me with Focus T25 or try another program. My mom recently started the P90 program and is very pleased to see her clothes fitting better in less than 2 weeks! P90 is designed to get anyone started in fitness, or simply get back into fitness, the workouts are only 30 minutes and it's even on sale through the end of the month. :)
