Planetbenjamin, you do the Evolution DVD sometimes, don´t you? And you live in London? I´d love to try the evolution but when I look on Amazon it says they are only playable in region 1 (USA & CAnada)...
Or did you buy yours in UK?

Thanks Agnes!
I have to be more patient... I feel its great to have all you guys too get inspiration and keep motivated. I know I can do it if I ust stick to it.
And Agnes you look stunning! You´re a model too?
You live in England, right? I´ll try to get a lesson next time i come there.

I will also be posting some pics of callanetics and clean eating working for me!!
The first picture is of me after 5 hours of Callan...um, yuk


The next is a self pic so not as good but DH isn't here After 13 hours


I will try to get DH to take more pics when he comes home...I was just so psyched to see such visible reults that I couldn't WAIT to show people!!


WOW, you look great. I am really on to this now. I have completed 3 hours so far and can't wait to see what 10-15 weeks looks like. You have really made me rethink so things.

And you spend a very reasonable amount on it.

Otherwise, I don't really know any... I guess they all work just differently. Others would be better advisers.
Thank you. I am researching some things now.

The Evolution DVD is not region-coded so it will play anywhere in the world. It plays on all my DVD players (I have 3!!) so it should be fine for you.

Twya - love your new picture !!!

I've been gone for a little over a week. I had surgery on my hand and wrist on the 10th and was out all week. During that week I only did 10/10 once .....back on it this week, did Tues and will do again tonight.

Question is ....since I have been doing 3 times per week, but last week only got in one hour .....do you think I should start over counting my hours? Wasn't sure if my results were lost due to missing hours.

The first pics were from the 6th of March and the second ones were from the 18th!!
Mind you on the 6th I had already done 6 hours, but my form has gotten better so I think that's why it was better results after that
I lost only 4 lbs between pictures, but it's like it was all from my tummy

I am down another 2lbs today...I had a great whoosh and I even went out to lunch yesterday..of course I was good and thus rewarded

Twyla- I just want to look that good!! You are ONE HOT MAMA!!

Freeing, I am so proud of your success and determination! First of all, Callanetics works so effectively at slimming/toning/leaning us, that even with a few pounds lost (Marhsa's progress too!), it really does look like a lot more. So don't shortchange your efforts!

And secondly, you're obviously doing EVERYTHING right with your WOE for this to come together in pounds lost in scale weight.

So don't be surprised if many of our challengers want details of what you're doing each and every day, both workout wise and eats-wise, so that they can tweak their own journeys.....Give it up, Freeing!

(BTW....thanks to all for the nice comments on the pic.)

I wouldn't. It's not like you've been out for 6 months.

I'm taking a week off, and just doing the stretches and I'm not going to 0.

Twyla -- you look great--your arms are really defined.
