I realised this week I didn’t update you all on how I did on the 5:2 diet. I stuck to it for the six weeks and lost a total of 8pounds. Not to shabby eh? I didn’t find it that hard to be honest. I had breakfast, lunch and dinner on the ‘starve’ days and could still have some sneaky sweeties on the other days.
I was gonna share before and after photos but I really want to tone up and no diet is going to do that. That’s were Jillian Michael comes in. I saw Anna’s amazing photos on twitter after completing the workout for 4weeks and thought I had to give it a try. I was even more inspired when I discovered you can view level 1 for free on You Tube. The DVD has two levels, so I will need to get it but this will tide me over for now.
My plan is to complete the workout 4 times a week. I started yesterday morning and can advise this is no easy workout. It’s not just sit ups, there’s some cardio to get your heart rate up and I was seriously sweating by the end of it. Roz is doing it too so that will hopefully keep me motivated. She has very bravely shared her before photo and as you can see from the comments below bullied me into sharing mine too!
Erm where is your before tummy shot partner?!?
I didn’t know you we’re putting yours on when I was typing it, I was gonna wait till week 2. I can add it into the text on my phone will need to do on computer
Good luck on your diet! Hope it goes well
