It was hard for me to get out of my comfort zone. As I progressed with the workouts they became easier. The beginning was hard because I wasn’t in good shape. I teach martial arts as well and I wanted to look the part. I had become comfortable like we all do and gained some excess weight. I had gotten out of a bad relationship and I decided it was time to focus solely on myself. I lost a total of 65 lbs using My Fitness app. It's a lifestyle that Jillian helps prepare you for and builds your confidence to make you always keeps you coming back for more.
It has been over 10 years since I started my journey with Jillian Michaels, being that overweight kid watching her on biggest loser, and I still use her DVDs to help keep the weight off. I was down 20 pounds in the first couple of weeks and there was no turning back after that! I continued working out with several different Jillian Michaels videos including Ripped in 30 and Bodyshred and lost a total of 90 pounds in 9 months. I started doing her workout videos every day and following her meal plan step by step. I finally found the motivation inside of me with the help of Jillian Michaels 30 day shred, to kick it in gear and shred the pounds. I wanted to play with my kids and run around without being out of breath, I wanted to be a good influence to them, and live a healthy lifestyle. It wasn't until after having my first child at 19 that I became very self aware about my weight that had skyrocketed higher than ever to 220 pounds. Then I started watching biggest loser when I was in high school and realized it's never too late to take a chance and make change. I always thought that's just who I was and there was nothing I could do to change it. I had always been an overweight child, I grew up being the fat kid, the one with little to no self esteem. Ive spent the last 16 months working out and I do not plan to stop.l! Thank you Jillian xxx I remember those first workouts absolutely killing me but the buzz I felt after completing each one was a feeling like no other. I’d never really watched the Biggest Loser but I saw the pictures and liked the way this lady looked! I bought a combo dvd with 30Day Shred, 6 week 6 pack, NMTZ & BFBM and off I started. Then in 2018 I knew I needed something else in my life to keep me focused and to start to tone up the wobbly bits left from my weight loss and my 3 big babies ! (8, 9 & 10lbs!!) that’s when somehow on Facebook I came across Jillian. I rejoined slimming world in 2017 and steadily lost weight by cooking good meals for myself my husband and my children. I had my 3 children over the space of 7 years and I knew I had to begin to set a good example of heathy eating and exercise. I spent my life on the scales! It was all about the numbers (another unhealthy obsession/disorder). As I hit my 20s I seem to be able to control my weight by being a member of WW then slimming world.
a battle that I then lived with ever since. Then that is when I sadly developed the eating disorder bulimia.
I remember eating nothing but rice cakes, then living off less than 500cals a day. When I hit my teens, I then enrolled in one extreme diet after another. I grew up chubby and was bullied because of the way I looked at school. I’ve always been a bigger girl than all my friends. Even if I only help 1 person that will satisfy me. My new goals now are to help people that were the way I used to be. Not only did I meet that goal, I surpassed it. When I didn't even know what that size is. When I first started my journey my goal was to be in a 14. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would be in a size like this. 2 yrs later I have lost 125 lbs, I'm a size M-11. Then I moved to weightlifting / kickboxing classes. After that I started Zumba / Polango classes. Then I began to jog on a treadmill for an hour. First I made small alterations like I wouldn't eat after a certain time. All it takes is just one day to make the decision that you don't want to be like this anymore. At my heaviest & my most depressed, I just had my twins, I lost my sister yr-&-a-half prior to murder. I never had a lot of self-esteem much less self-respect & it got worse as I got older. I was subjected to a lot of bullying & ridicule. One person that I was able to relate to was Jillian Michaels because like myself she was overweight. Depression & anxiety was something that I developed early in life. My childhood wasn't a happy one to say the least. I have always been considered overweight ever since I was a child.
