Fantastic vid & so inspirational! I've been on JM 30-day shred + Zumba for about 3 weeks & have dropped about 8 lbs. It was difficult @ first but now I look forward to my routine. I have so much more energy now, my clothes fit better & not to sound corny, but I feel so damn happy that I'm starting to annoy my friends, lol. Thanks so much for the vid!

@makeupNdesign Congrats! Have you been sticking to JM Shred daily?? It was hard for me to stick with her day to day. She's crazy but amazing. I'm SOO happy that you've found the new energy & what exercise can do to your life =) Your friends will soon join in too, trust me! Keep me updated! I love to see my subbies/friends truckin' with their workouts =)

good job that's great girl:) Are you trying to lose anymore weight or are you done? I am 5'1 and now I weight 120 and I am trying to get to 110 it's so hard though..

[freshxsoul]

@sweetkisses021 I'm aiming for about 128lbs ... maybe? The weight isn't my main goal anymore.. If I lose weight, cool! If I stay where I am, that's cool too =) I'm focusing on toning, EVERYWHERE ! =) For us petite girls, unfortunately, it's much harder for us to lose weight.. Just push all you have into your workouts & stay dedicated. Make sure you're eating right too because you know fitness + diet go together! =)

@1YellowStiLetto Thank you ! No, I don't count calories or stop eating after a certain time. Counting calories can really discourage your lifestyle change. You can eat whatever you like, just pick good food choices & size proportion! Be reasonable with yourself. I don't eat dinner often during the week because I had a really big lunch. If I do, then it's just a snack. Whenever I have a craving, I go with it! Just size proportion & control =) Don't restrict yourself of anything.. just control!

@meeee1992 Hi ! These are great questions !

1) I either follow a home DVD or lift weights by myself using the cable cords (similar to the Bowflex System). Home DVDs are great because they're simple & easy. I use to work at a gym so I know what movements I should do when I lift weights. A great place to get ideas from are through magazines, especially Women's health !

2) The only classes I take are through home DVDs.. I don't own a gym membership anymore! So, I do cardio & strength on my own =)

@nvthao You're so welcome, Nas =) & thank YOU for these great questions ! I will definitely update here after my race ! =)

@hummiemd Aw thank you SO much ! Having a strong support system definitely helps. Try to get your family into eating healthy =) at least a little bit to start with first. Force yourself to control ! :)
