If you’re looking for real Brazil Butt Lift Results, then I am really glad you found your way here. I went into my online BBL journey thinking I would just review the product and slim down a little bit, but I had no idea it would change my body as much as it did.
My Background Briefly
After many years of sitting at a desk and living an unhealthy, inactive lifestyle, I was left with large, unsightly saddlebags, a muffin top, and cellulite on almost every part of my body – even the not-so-fat parts of me. Pair that with a much smaller chest, and well, you have me…who happens to have an obvious pear-shaped figure.
After feeling sorry for myself for a while, missing out on any fun in the summer sun and longing for the lean, muscular dancer’s body I once possessed, I knew I had to do something about it – that’s when I decided to do the Brazil Butt Lift workout, an at-home workout program targeted at the area of my body I’d hated for almost all of my adult life – my butt and thighs. While I figured there was nothing that would cure my genetically disproportionate hips, I hoped it would smooth my silhouette some to the point where I could comfortably wear shorts or bathing suit again without feeling entirely self-conscious.
My Brazil Butt Lift Workout Results
I really hate admitting I didn’t believe Leandro’s promise of getting a smaller, sexier body in 60 days. Let’s face it, after putting on years of fat and cellulite, what were the chances it would go away in only two months?! All you ever read is how cellulite is impossible to get rid of, and if you’re pear-shaped, then you will never ever come close to an hourglass figure. So 60 days to get supermodel sexy? I didn’t think so either.
Then there were the issues of Brazil Butt Lift’s Before & After results photos everywhere online. The problem I have with these is that it shows others’ images with the caption, “Before & After” – it doesn’t tell you if the image is the person’s 60 day results or if they repeated the program once, twice, or even longer. While it really doesn’t matter if someone lost 100 lbs overall, looks absolutely fantastic, and it took them over a year to get there (that’s awesome & amazing, btw), I wanted to see just how much the program could really change your body in just one time through – eight weeks only. This is why I chronicled my entire BBL journey for the world to see – so that you really could see how BBL can change your body not only by the final day, but also the real changes from week to week.
Below are just a few more of my 60-day Brazil Butt Lift Before & After results. As you can see for yourself, the Brazil Butt Lift program really can transform your body.
Brazil Butt Lift Not Just a Perfect Butt
If you have no butt, too much butt or are genetically pear-shaped, then the Brazi Butt Lift program is the right workout for you. It doesn’t just help with your tush.
It’s a Total Body Workout…
Too often women who think they need to lose more fat off their arms or their stomachs, not necessarily their butts, never consider trying the Brazil Butt Lift. However, Brazil Butt Lift is the secret to a sexy beach body – from your shoulders to your toes. In fact, my sister commented on how great my arms looked :)
It’s really not only for those lacking the perfect derriere – it helps you lose all unwanted fat and gives you a sleek and sexy silhouette you may have never seen – or not seen in several years :) Just look at the difference it made in my chin (I have a defined jawline once again!), my belly, my calves, my shoulders, my arms, and my back.
BBL is Fun…
The trainer in the video series, Leandro Carvalho, has an awesome personality. He’s fun, he’s energetic, and most importantly, he makes you want to push yourself to your limits as a very encouraging trainer. Combine this with a killer workout that is actually enjoyable to do, and you have an at-home workout program that will get you results and that you’ll want to stick with.
It’s also very dance oriented, which is what initially got my attention. If you like to dance, then this is a great workout for you as it incorporates a lot of hip swings and dance moves – all with a bit of a Brazilian flare. It’s really a ton of fun…
It’s a Great Choice Whether You’re an Exercise Enthusiast or a Couch Potato…
It’s Very Easy to Tone Down to your Current Fitness Level
One of the best things about the BBL workout is that you don’t have to be in top shape to reap the benefits of the Brazil Butt Lift. When I first started, I was out of shape and got out of breath with my heart pounding very easily. Let’s just say I couldn’t finish Cardio Axe without having to walk it out now and then or tone down the moves, not jumping around quite as much or doing the moves as powerfully. Luckily as time goes by and you lose some weight and gain more endurance, the workouts do get easier, and you can really begin to give it your all without settling for less.
Already in Shape?
Of course if you’re already in shape but just want to try something new or really shape up your booty, then the Brazil Butt Lift is a fun alternative to whatever else you’ve been doing. All you need to do is make the moves a little bit larger or jump a little bit higher. Cardio Axe is only as hard as you make it to be. If you’re swinging your hips around, shaking your shoulders and really feeling sexy while you’re doing the workout, then you will definitely get results.
My BBL Before and After Measurements?
The Brazil Butt Lift really works. I still can’t believe the change the Brazil Butt Lift program made in my body – not just my butt. I no longer have saddlebags pushing out, and I can once again fit into the pants I wore several years ago. Even the clothes I wore ten years ago are now too big! Plus, it even got me a sleek, sexy stomach. That’s right…the Brazil Butt Lift will give you a great looking stomach too! Maybe not a ripped six-pack, but a flat toned tummy.
| Before | Week 1 | Week 2 | Week 3 | Week 4 | Week 5 | Week 6 | Week 7 | Final Weigh In | |
| Waist in Inches | 27.0 | 25.75 | 25.0 | 24.75 | 24.0 | 24.0 | 23.75 | 23.75 | 23.5 |
| Hips in Inches | 39.75 | 38.0 | 37.0 | 36.5 | 36.0 | 35.75 | 35.5 | 35.0 | 34.0 |
| Weight in lbs | 141.2 | 139.0 | 136.8 | 135.4 | 135.0 | 134.0 | 130.6 | 129.8 | 125.0 |
I never thought my body could change so much in only 60 days, but it has – all thanks to Leandro and his unique Brazil Butt Lift workout. While I’m still slightly pear-shaped (nothing I can do about bone structure), I don’t have jiggles everywhere below my waistline. I LOVE my new beach body. And if you think that I happened to get lucky with my results, you’re wrong. There are hundreds of thousands of other women and a few men for whom the Brazil Butt Lift has transformed their lives, and their bodies.

Hi Bethany from cold and rain filled London UK!
Firstly WOW! you look amazing :) I first came across BBL whilst in Orlando in April on vacation on a cable infomercial channel and it held my interest straight away, it looks fun which is very important for me to sitck at it! any way cutting a long story short, on the same vacation my BF of 3 years proposed at Disneyworld and i am now due to get married at the Hark Rock Orlando on Oct 29th 2013, i am currently around 57 pounds overweight which is awful and i have embarked on a clean programme at 1500 calories per day, i am sure i can reach my goal weight by my wedding, but i really would love a tight toned body to boot, i cant remember the last time i had the confidence to wear shorts and a bikini – cue my other problem we have 4 beautiful daughters all of which have been through C.Section deliveries so my stomach is shot, no tone, loose skin just eww! will BBL be able to help with this? i too tried the gym like another poster on here, and got no results that i could really notice :( – I have brought a beautiful mermaid gown 3 sizes smaller for my big day and really need to help to be able to wear it and fell good about my body ie smooth hips, tight butt sleek lines, the other question i have is shall i wait to say 100 days before the wedding to start? sorry for this overload but it is an insperation to read your blog, and to have at last found a exercise programme that i’m excited about! thank you so much! x
Hi Laura, congratulations on your decision to get fit for your big day! As far as dropping dress sizes – it is very possible to lose all your weight by next year (you wrote 2013, but I am guessing you meant 2014 with the 100 day comment). Realistically, I believe you could lose 20lbs safely and effectively on BBL in 60 days. I would definitely follow the Classic Schedule and really watch your diet – only whole foods with not a ton of whole grain carbs – try to aim getting your carbs from mostly veges, then fresh fruits, and then whole grains. Stick to lean proteins like turkey, chicken, and fish – you could also try adding in a protein shake to make sure you’re getting enough protein. Eating like this will cut the fat fast. You could also do a slightly higher protein diet in ratios of 40% protein to 30% carbs to 30% healthy fats. If it’s easier for you and you want to see how it is, you could also just follow the BBL diet.
I would not wait to do the workout until 100 days before your wedding day – start now and get yourself into the habit, and you could have a lean, sexy figure you’ve always wanted by your wedding day. Don’t wait and get yourself even more anxious for your special day – don’t forget, you’ll probably need to have your dress taken in more so if you start now :) Push yourself only as hard as you are able to safely exercise – overdoing it will not help you reach your goals any faster. And definitely follow the 6-day Supermodel Slimdown, because you could lose over 5lbs in that short amount of time, which would put well on your way to weight loss success. Always make sure you’re eating enough to satisfy your body’s energy levels at your current weight to maximize fat loss. I would follow BBL’s calorie recommendations.
After one round of BBL, you could either do the program again or opt for something that is less time consuming like Focus T25 (25 minutes a day). I do think BBL will help with the extra skin on your belly – slow and steady weight loss is the key, while simultaneously building up muscle underneath. BBL has the best ab workout, so it’s a great place to start. And BBL will tighten, lift, and tone your booty nicely, so you feel more confident than ever in a bikini and shorts :) Good luck! If you have any questions along the way, please feel free to ask.
Thank you so much for sharing your story. It’s REALLY great to find one (results well documented) out there that isn’t doctored up! I’ve read so many of the comments and the overall consensus is, #1 You look amazing & awesome job to you! #2 your story is very inspiring and so much appreciated (all the documentation)!
I’ve already read your story many times now. I just started DAY 1 (received the DVDs in the mail today)! Looking forward to making some changes to my overall eating/diet and BODY. 1st day down, ready to commit to the days to come.
I just signed up for the free Team Beachbody today and clicked your link.
Just a shout out to say, thank you for sharing & for the REAL inspiration!
Hi Kara, thank you for the kind words. I just sent you a welcome email to your Beachbody account. -Bethany
hi bethany
i noticed ur answer to the girl above about yoga and how it is considered as overdoing the prog.
i do a 10 min yoga every day after BBL is that bad ? with a full 50 min yoga on my rest days
I’m 145 lbs, 5’7″, and I have basically the same measurements as you! I was wondering what you thought would be a healthy weight for me (I’m thinking 120-124?) and how much weight do you think I’d lose in 8 weeks of bbl if I followed the combination program and did a 30 minute yoga video every day and walked for 45 minutes on Sundays? Oh and ate 1200-1400 a day of clean protein and complex carbs? And I’ve read dairy is bad when dieting.. Do you think Greek yogurt is okay? I would really like to reach at least 125 by the last week of October.. My 20th bday! Oh and also – I’m completely inactive and out of shape right now.. If I can’t complete the full video or can’t do all of the reps and have to take breaks – will that hinder my results? It kind of scares me away from attempting the program..
Hi Amber – your healthy weight is most often the lowest weight you were able to maintain for at least one year after you turned 18 years old. If you were 120-124 lbs, then that would be a healthy weight for you. That being said, 120-124 is very thin for your height unless you are small framed. After not being able to exercise because of a stomach virus just recently, I went down to 120 lbs, and I looked icky – being fit is way more attractive than being just thin. Muscle weighs more than fat, so even if you get supermodel thin, you will have muscle, so you may weight 125-130 lbs and look fabulous.
After eight weeks of following BBL religiously, I would guesstimate you could lose at most 15-20 lbs safely and effectively. I would not do yoga every day in addition to the BBL workouts, because you will be overdoing it, which is counterproductive. I do think walking on your rest day is a great idea.
For diet, I would try to follow the supermodel slimdown at least once and make sure you’re eating your 1400 calories per day. Starving your body is a big no-no when trying to lose weight, because you can force your body into starvation mode where all your hard work will just lead to fat gain because your body begins to store fat for survival instead of burning it, which is what you want.
As for dairy, I ate what the BBL diet said I could, which included low-fat cheese and yes, Greek yogurt…yummmy! Opt for the non-fat plain Greek yogurt and mix frozen or fresh fruits into it for a healthy snack. Do not buy the flavors that come with fruit – although delicious, they are loaded with naturally occurring and added sugar. Keep to eating whole foods, and make sure your ratios are somewhere close to 35% protein, 40% carbs, and 25% healthy fat. Try to get your carb sources from fruits and veges with only some coming from whole grains each day to really torch the fat.
And don’t be worried about being able to finish the workouts in the beginning. I couldn’t even finish Cardio Axe without having to walk it out every now and then. Just be sure you are standing and active the entire length of the videos. With time, you will get stronger and feel your endurance building as you are able to finish the workouts at a higher intensity level than before. It won’t happen overnight, but it will happen. And it will not hinder your results – just do the best you can and commit to the program. If you’re 100% committed, you can’t lose anything but the extra weight :) Good luck! If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
Hey u look lovely still but your shape was great. just needed a little toning up and u would have been fine (: I was your size at first (bigger ) then wanted to tone up only but lost weight with it : ( now im eating more to see if i can get back a bit bigger.
Awesome! Just be sure to eat more healthy foods and not just junk food.
Hi Bethany, I’m on my 3rd week of BBL starting today and im doing the Pear Solution; anyways I’m on my 3rd week like I said but I don’t see a difference, I just gained a kilo since I started and I don’t know how and i have recently begin logging in my calorie intake on to the app Lose it! and my butt did get lifted but that’s it, I’m getting worried that I might be doing something wrong.. Love your blog too xox
Sounds like you have been replacing fat with muscle. Though you may have lost fat weight, the scale is not moving down because you have replaced it with muscle. This is great because muscle is denser than fat and will help you burn more calories overall. I would suggest taking measurements and see if you are losing inches. Sometimes a tape measure can be a better way of tracking results than a bathroom scale. -Bethany
hi again sorry for spamming you with all of this but just letting you know im back on the classic BBL sec after serious self talk and thinking
Hi Farah,
First I am glad to hear you had such excellent results with BBL and I agree with your decision to go back to the classic BBL schedule.
The BBL Masters series is something that I have been wanting to write about, but have not had the time I will be reviewing it shortly however. The problem with the Masters series it is meant more maintaining the results that you get from BBL not necessarily for continueing to get more results, if that makes sense. The BBL Masters series workouts do however have there place and are good workouts to mix in with the classic BBL workouts. YOu should be able to return the Masters series if it was purchased through Beachbody without a problem for a full refund btw, but I would keep the program as it is something you may want to use when you look to maintain results instead of gain. Hope that helps, Bethany
hi bethany thanks for answering me and im glad that you second my decision
but i have an huge amazing update about my BBL results so i measured before starting the bbl again which would be my third month
and my thighs i measured them in three places the upper wider part, the middle part and, above the knee
now the upper part used to be in the 25-26” now im at 24”
the middle part o used to be at 23” now im at 20-21”
above the knees i never measure before m=but now im at 15-15.5”
my calves were 15/5”-16” now im at 15” both
so thats so serious inches lost in my thighs im so happy
——————————————————————————————
for the master series i have noticed
/seen and felt an almost instant change ,lift and tone in my thighs shortly after i did the ipanema booty just once!!
since u said it’d be good to mix the master and bbl together
would u recommend including ipanema booty once a week with sculpt ?
as i see in the master calendar it is only done once or twice a week.
i also noticed its been added in the hybrid calendar once a week ( not in the first week then twice in the second week then once in the third and once in the fourth ) alone or combined with tummy tuck.
or will adding it once a week to the classic bbl offset the fact that this prog. promises no bulk at all and if i do so it will make my quads and thighs in general overworked thus leading to big thighs ?
Hi Farah, I think you would be safe adding in Ipanema booty in without any problems. I’m also glad to hear the Master Series has worked out for you. Bethany
hi bethany
its the BBL classic prog that actually gave me those results
so if i were to add ipanema booty what the best way to know if it would bulk me up should i measure after 2 weeks=2 times of ipanema ?
Hi Farah, yes I would measure after two weeks, you could measure after one week also.
part of me doesnt want to judge it right away since there is the tougher variation where you replace the last two weeks with other 2 dvds that are more BBL inspired so i really have no idea what to do probably i’ll keep going for the sake of getting to the last two weeks
but it really like has no planks no targeted abs workout like tummy tuck so far though the last two weeks variations do have that i dont how they will show me results in two weeks only ?!
what would you do ?
hi again you must be on vacation bethany and cant reply me
today is a sunday which is the start of the week for me idk what to do my gut tells me to just rip off the master calendar and hang the BBL classic programe
im really disappointed since i spent technically my brother spent a 100 kwd on the master elite package = 300 usd and it all like wasnt worth it or so it seems
hi bethany
im very happy to tell you that i finished my 60 day BBL program and already finished my first week of BBL master series my final results are that im at 62kg ( i kind of went up to 65 right before starting so …) and lost almost almost an inch off my waist ( which i wasn’t planning to ) and most importantly i lost an entire inch off my hips that may not seem much but for me is a dreaaaam!!! like my right hip was always wider than the left like it had this pointy edge on the side thats now smoothly rounded and i actually wore a body hugging jumpsuit at a gathering a few weeks ago like YEAAAAAAAAH i love my body where it is after finishing BBL but wouldn’t mind more tone and tightening than what i’ve got
surprisingly i dont find the exercises in the master series challenging at all to my body i actually feel a bit of the tone that i gained from BBL going away a bit, im concerned
i couldn’t find a review of yours on it ? did u try it ? do u recommend i go back to BBL
im planning to finish the master then do the hybrid BBL/Master and then if im really not as good as i was with BBL i’ll just go back to it
but im afraid if i wait all this time i’ll end up loosing the body i gained with BBL the first time !!
what do u think
Hi Bethany,
I’ve seen many commercials about BBL and always wondered if it actually works. So I did my research and stumbled on your review & results. First off, you look amazing! And you definitely inspired me to buy the DVD and try it out. The reason I decided to try BBL was your results. You weren’t over weight before, you just needed toning (well, from what I think!). That’s what I need! I am 5’0″ and started BBL last Monday 7/29/13 at 117lbs. Also, Monday I started a nutrition by Tone It Up. Yesterday I did my weigh in and took measurements… I’ve lost 2lbs., 3/4 inch on my waist, 3/4 inch on my hips, 1/2 inch on my thighs!!! I just want to say a HUGE thanks for posting this review/results.You really inspired me to start BBL and I am SO happy I did! Thanks again :)
Hi Angelita,
Awesome to hear you are doing so well with BBL…Keep it up!
And thank you for the kind words. -Bethany
Hi Bethany,
Your results are amazing, congrats!, but I’m feeling a little discouraged because I just finished my 7th week of BBL and I haven’t dropped a single pound. I’m 5 ‘6 and I started at 160 and I’m still there. I feel my body becoming toned and I have lost my saddlebags, but my weight concerns me because I know my BMI is not right. I am eating right, tons of fruit and veggies, I don’t know what is happening, I want to cry :'( , is it really gonna happen? You think the scale will move at some point?, thank you for the inspiration!
Hi April – I’m glad you took the time to write. While I’m happy to hear you are noticing results, I am a little concerned you haven’t lost any weight. Have you lost inches? Alos, are you following the combination schedule, because this one will get you the most fat loss. And while you will replace fat with heavier weight muscle, you should’ve seen the scale move slightly by now. Usually this means your diet may need some tweaking calorie-wise and/or macronutrient-wise.
Are you following BBL’s recommended calories? If so, you should be eating around 1600. That being said, if you have been eating 1600 and haven’t lost any weight, try knocking down your calories to 1400 each day to see where you end up after a week. Also, be sure to eat all whole foods and watch your ratios of lean protein to complex carbs to healthy fats. I would shoot for 30-35% protein to 40% carbs to 25-30% healthy fat. Unfortuntately when you eat too many fruits and veges, you could be eating too many carbs – track your eating on a site like myfitnesspal.com – just don’t pay attention to their suggested calories. I really do think the scale will move – it just may take a little experimenting on your part. Good luck! And if you have any questions, please ask.
Hello! I am AMAZED! Your transformation is awesome! Congratulation! Yo look perfect.
I bought the Brazilian Butt Lift AND the Hip Hop Abs DVDs. But now I don’t know which one should I do first!
Or shall I combine them? I have no idea how to start and work for a saddlebag free/ sexy six pack body…
I also bought vanilla 0 calorie protein. But if Im trying to loose weight, should I drink the protein shakes?? Im so confused!!!! Im sorry for all the dumb questions…Could you please give me your thoughts or help me some way?
Thanks a lot! And congrats on the amazing body.
Hi Dana – thanks so much for your kind words, and congrats on your decision to try two of Beachbody’s most fun workouts. To begin, I would start with the BBL combination schedule 60 days – it combines the right amount of cardio with the right amount of body toning moves to get you the sexy saddlebag-free body you want. While you could add an HHA workout each week on your rest day, or any other day when you’re feeling extra ambitious – I would keep it to a minimum, because over exercising is almost as bad as not exercising. It can actually hurt your results. Truth is, BBL’s combination schedule is tough enough as is if you’re following the plan exactly.
As for protein shakes, they’re perfect for when you’re losing weight. It helps you get in the protein you need to build lean muscle, which can be really tough. Try to stick with a 30-35% protein, 40% carbs, 25-30% healthy fat diet to optimize fat loss and eat lots of whole foods and lean proteins. I hope this helps, but if you do have any questions along the way, please feel free to ask. Good luck!
Thank you so much for your help!!!! I just started yesterday. And Im doing the 6 day slim down plan. Im feeling just a little bit dizzy, but Im happy and my body is sore. :) SO EXCITED!
Thanks for all your help, I was super lost!
Dana.
PS. ohh! I just forgot to ask… how will over exercising hurt my results? Ive never heard this before, and sound really interesting…I thought all exercising was good, an the more you did, the better you will look. ha, ha!
Hi Dana,
Exercising too much is called overtraining, it is pretty hard to do, but it does happen. When your body enters a state of overtraining it basically does not heal, meaning your body will not adapt or get physically stronger. Overtraining will cause your results to suffer. As long as your diet is proper you really do not have to worry about overtraining.
Hi bethany
Im so very happy and proud to tell you that im on my 5th week of BBL and i see amazing results so far my behind is high and tight indeed, my hips are changing, slowly BUT they are changing which encourages me even more
Id like to tell u that in also following the 1200 (1242) cal a day well
I alao ordered the BBL master series elite package and im starting it as soon as i finish my BBL programme
This all wouldnt have happened if it wasnt for u
Congratulations! Keep up the good work!
Hey B, it’s me again and I’m following my calendar day by day. Am I doing to much if i do it twice a day? I don’t want to lose my butt :) just wanna lift lift lift!
Hi Maria, doing it twice a day could potentially hinder results – that really is too much in one day. I would just stick with the schedule to get your butt smaller and tighter, as well as using the heaviest ankle and regular weights possible :) Good luck!
Hi there! I’ve been going to the gym since October and seen no results whatsoever. When I came across these beach body workouts, it seem too good to be true. Once I found your blog, I’m totally convinced! I’ve seriously never ever worn shorts or dresses in my life because my thighs are really chunky, to make it worst im sort!
First of all, I’m 14, 115pounds and 5ft. if it helps I consume no more than 1500 calories a day.Am I too young? Do you think it’ll be safe for me to use these programs? Which ones do you recommend?
Sorry this is not related but after every work out are you supposed to be really tired and sweating? On day 1 when I start a new routine I’m sweating a pool, huffing, puffing and feel like dying. But the following days i don’t huff and puff as much nor sweat too much. Some days I wont even sweat at all. Am I just not working hard enough?
Thank you so much [:
Hi Alexia, I’m glad you’re enthused about Beachbody products, but really sorry to tell you that you are a little too young to follow the programs right now. They are all much too intense and too calorie restricting for someone who is still growing. If you want to begin a new exercise program, talk with your doctor/pediatrician to find out the best, and safest, ways for someone of your age to lose weight. You’re young, so don’t worry too much about the little things like not looking like a supermodel in a dress or shorts (none of us do!) – the most important thing is to enjoy yourself :)
Okay thank you so much! Its just so hard loving myself, especially with the media. My friends are all beautiful, tan slim Dx
Hi Bethanny- I was wondering if you know if beach body replaces a lost DVD? I went to do my workout today and my high and tight video is GONE. I cannot find it anywhere and my kids swear they have no idea where it is :(. I am beyond upset because I’m trying to get in shape before I go to the beach and the high and tight video is SO important. :(.
I ordered it from amazon over a year ago so I have a feeling I’m out of luck and I’m going to have to buy the entire system all over again since high and tight and sculpt are so important.
Hi Kate, since you purchased from Amazon, I am not sure you will be able to get a replacement. If your order was full filled by Amazon but sold through Beachbody you may be able to get a replacement. Sorry I could not be of more help. Hopefully the DVD shows up somewhere.
Hiii Bethany,
How r u ?!
I noticed something with my boddybuddy app, as u told u it calculated a 1242 a day for me but as i add my exercise it adds up more so like i get 1500 is that right, am i not supposed to add the exercise and go on a 1200 regardless of how much i burn ?!
Hi Farah, to continue losing weight, just eat 1242 calories. A lot of online calorie calculators will add in extra calories for working out. Just stick with BBL’s 1200 (1242) recommendation – you will reach your weight loss goals faster that way.
hi bethany
thank you i understand now and from today i started not entering my workout into the app and just going on 1242 a day
one more Q i decided id like to do more yoga will adding yoga everyday affect the results of BBL only an 11 min routine

keeping the original 50 min routine on off days
what do u think ?
Hi Farah, doing an 11-minute yoga session each day would be fine while keeping the lengthier one for your off days. I personally love stretching and doing yoga, so there is nothing wrong with it – if anything, it will just help lengthen your muscles more, while keeping you more flexible. I hope this helps, and you’re enjoying the program. Keep up the good work!
Did you happen to measure your thighs during any time? And if so, how many inches did you lose?
Hi Jodi – I did measure my thighs, and I lost 4″ off each thigh by day 60. Hope that helps :)
Wow! That’s awesome! I hope I have similar results! I just really need to focus on my eating…that’s my downfall. What’s a typical day’s menu for you?
Hi Jodi – a typical day’s menu consisted of Tropical Strawberry Shakeology with one cup of Wyman’s frozen triple berry blend, blended until smooth for breakfast, two cups of salad with veges, 4 oz. grilled chicken, and natural salad dressing (one serving!) for lunch, and a healthy dinner of 4 oz of grilled salmon/chicken/turkey with roasted sweet potatoes or red potatoes for dinner, and at least one cup of fresh steamed or grilled veges with olive oil and seasoning. I also had two snacks each day – usually a handful of nuts or raw veges or fruit with a tablespoon of natural peanut butter. For dessert, I often had frozen blueberries in non-fat plain yogurt or just a cup of fresh berries. The most important thing to do is eat foods you can tolerate and enjoy – otherwise, you will not be able to maintain it for the full 60 days. Also, don’t deprive yourself of anything – if you really want a piece of chocolate, have it. Just don’t overdo it. I did try to add in “normal” foods like healthy chicken fingers or healthy pizza once in a while to keep things realistic – my thoughts are as long as you’re getting in your healthy ratios of protein to carbs to fats and eating at least seven servings of fresh fruits and veges, you are good to go. Hope this helps!
it looks good now***
