Some things I noticed during the process was I was getting stronger. The first week I used no weights, 2nd week I used light weights and this last week I used the combo of light and heavy as they advise and thought I may even need slightly heavier weights for certain exercises.
The scale only shows a total loss of 6.7 lbs. That is about 2 lbs a week. However 5 of these pounds were lost in my first week. I was excited when the first week resulted in a 5 lbs loss but then when the next two weeks only totaled 1.7. I was seriously bummed. I was starting to wonder, I felt like I just was not getting the results I wanted and yet I was putting in a ton of work. I was getting frustrated starting thinking maybe this wasn't working. But in week 3 I started to notice my clothing fitting differently and was excited to feel that difference but very confused as to what was causing it because the scale wasn't showing any progress. And here is where the importance of before pictures and measurements come into play. If it wasn't for this I would not be as excited as I am. Honestly I would probably not even be happy with my results.
I put on the same shorts, shirt and even sports bra as I wore for my before pictures and here is the reason you are all on this post to see the after pictures.

I am still so shocked by the fact that these pictures only reflect 6.7 lbs of weight loss. I am very happy with my results and was excited to share them. I can't wait to see what the next round of the 21 day fix brings!! If this is something your interested in trying let me know and we can work together to achieve our goals!
