​Cycle 1 – Shift …. My first 30 days on SSS

17/5/2016

2 Comments

 
So today I submitted my Cycle 1 results of The Body Coach SSS Plan.

I have lost 6.5” and 2 kg.  The most loss was 2” from my waist.  I look leaner and narrower and I’m happy that my measurements are heading the right direction.

If you eat the right food, in the right quantity and do fat burning HIIT exercise (25 minutes 4-5 times per week) Cycle 1 and then weights (Cycle 2 and 3) then your body will lose fat and gain muscle.  That doesn't necessarily mean weight but you will be slimmer and leaner.  I am only 30 days into a 90 day programme but already I can see this does work.

I have 10 days now until I go on holiday to Turkey for a week.  I have decided not to start Cycle 2 until I get back.  This is because each cycle takes quite a bit of planning and getting used to and I think that with organising to get away on holiday I will not be able to give it my all so I am going to carry on with Cycle 1, get Cycle 2 delivered to my inbox and plan so that I am ready to go as soon as I am home.

​As well as the inch and weight loss though – there are many other NSV’s (Non Scale Victories):

​
  • My skin looks better – I have been told I am ‘glowing’.
  • My nails are stronger.
  • I have more energy.
  • My belt is one hole tighter.
  • I feel ‘slimmer’ and ‘lighter’.
  • I am resisting temptation – because I want this to work.
  • I’ve not had any sugar or alcohol cravings.
  • I’ve not skipped any meals.
  • I’ve learnt I can fit exercise into my busy schedule.
  • I’m going out most afternoons to walk the dogs.
  • I feel positive about my body goals for the first time in a very long time.

Hi there well done!! They are amazing results so far! I'm only following the book at the minute to see how I get on. Then I will sign up for the tailored plan. I'm on week 4 and I feel all those things too. Only wish I had taken measurements. Enjoy your holiday x
