So, as you might imagine, I'm a little disappointed with the lack of weight change and was hoping for a bit more reduction in body fat.  However, I am using a 10 year old Tanita body fat scale that is likely not all that accurate so who knows.  I am pleased with the waist reduction as, in truth, that's probably the place where I had the most to lose.  That's really the only difference you can see in the pictures above (Day 1 on the left, Day 30 on the right).  I certainly hope for more dramatic results at 60 days and have heard/read online that many people don't see true results until 45-60 days (especially if you start the program not really overweight as I did).  I certainly feel a lot better than I did 30 days ago.  My energy is more consistent, I am stronger and in much better shape.  I'll take it.

I started Phase 2 today and that means Doubles.  I did Cardio X for the first time this morning and then have Chest, Shoulders & Triceps and ARX tonight.  I was looking forward to Cardio X because it's one of the few workouts that I haven't done yet.  I realized, however, that I actually have.  Cardio X is 15 mins of Yoga followed by Kenpo moves, Plyo moves and then some Core Synergistics moves.  Don't get me wrong, I was sweating for sure and it was a good workout, but nothing new.
