The past 60 days have been life (and, as Kristen pointed out, ass) changing. I've been losing (or relosing) weight since last November, but hadn't been doing any strength training or cardio to go along with it. Along came the #shredheads and boom - the working out commenced! 60 days later and I'm still really self-conscious about my body - so it's weird that I'd post these pictures on the internets, but I'm anonymous here, right? :) But I feel a lot better physically, and a lot better about myself too.
Anyway, let's get to it, shall we?
Team Jillian Leader: Daddy Is Tired (Bill)
(30 Day Shred, Banish Fat Boost Metabolism, No More Trouble Zones, exercisetv.tv, Weight Watchers, not so much breastfeeding because my milk never came in)
Start Weight: 197.6 (3/28/09)
Day 10 Weight: 192.8 (4/11/09)
Day 20 Weight: 192.6
Day 30 Weight: 191
Loss: 1.6 lbs
TOTAL FOR APRIL: 6.6 lbs
Starting Measurements: 270.75
Day 10 Measurements: 267.875
Day 20 Measurements: 267.625
Day 30 Measurements: 265.5
Loss: 2.125 inches
TOTAL FOR APRIL: 5.25 inches
And here's what 60 days of exercise (a minimum of 20 minutes a day, but lots of days were an hour+) along with eating correctly did for me (the front shot is recropped to match, the original back shot is from day 8, not day 1).
So who won April's challenge? Well, Team Bob lost more weight (8.5 pounds versus 6.6 pounds), but Team Jillian lost more inches (5.25 inches versus 5 inches). So...
WE BOTH WON! Seriously, I think both of us did great, and with both of us losing weight and inches, there really aren't any losers! But I'm still going to claim victory, because that's what I do. And by doing this with us, you won too! Yay, us!
Next time, I'll let you know the running program I'm doing. It starts off slower than Kristen's, but will hopefully catch up fast.
Yay! Congrats to you both. I'm definitely still continuing to workout alongside you folks, though haven't made a decision on the 5K yet.

OK, I can't believe nobody's called me out for claiming equal victory here! She lost 2 more pounds, and the measurements are a statistical tie!
Tap, tap, tap...is this thing on?
Oh yeah, on my computer it's hard to tell which back pic is the recent one - the ones where I look like an oompa loompa (orange) are the current ones. Apparently I have to calibrate my laptop monitor before editing pictures again.

Can we go back and compare weight loss since November? ;)
