I wasn't eating enough (due to hectic workdays / not on purpose) and my body was trying to store fat instead of getting rid of it. This on top of Jillian every other day and I have discovered free cardio videos here -http://www.exercisetv.tv/workout-videos/ - has made a difference. I definitely feel more toned. I don't own a scale but I have more energy and feel better so I think it's working? You can definitely do it by 10/10!Emilia Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00029416835245576093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5826652984937528839.post-65353925493583300672010-02-20T00:09:46.342-08:002010-02-20T00:09:46.342-08:00Thanks, Meg.

I was having a hard time with the eating thing, because I tend to try to eat so healthy and then get down on myself when I cheat. That is what I am working on, but the Jillian Michael's DVD is hard workout and it is only 20 minutes. I can do 20 minutes...try it!Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06717260807957506837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5826652984937528839.post-78177919273904495062010-02-19T16:19:43.482-08:002010-02-19T16:19:43.482-08:00Karen, good point, it's about the size not nec...Karen, good point, it's about the size not necessarily the pounds. :) And Betty -- Food Inc. is definitely an eye-opener. I support the principles of slow food (and living in Berkeley-Oakland, it's accessible) but I definitely have to focus on making time to eat right.Vera D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01791616525911391039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5826652984937528839.post-73377755589788318242010-02-19T13:38:05.144-08:002010-02-19T13:38:05.144-08:00Yes you can!

I used to really struggle with eating healthy until I read his stuff. Makes a lot of sense and genuinely made me want to eat healthier. I've actually been writing about Food Rules recently so it's on my mind :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5826652984937528839.post-18767485984634056922010-02-19T11:59:42.420-08:002010-02-19T11:59:42.420-08:00You can do it!

I’ve gained back a couple pounds after losing a lot of weight last year, so I’m really looking forward to spring as a fresh motivator.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13226523010102160874noreply@blogger.com
