Phase 2 Jamie Eason Live Fit Trainer

So really, I can't call this a true "beginning," but I didn't take any pictures when I first started doing Jamie Eason's LiveFit trainer 6 months ago. I haven't been too consistent at Phase 2, so I'm starting over. The plan for this blog is to spend 30 days seeing just how a certain workout improves or changes my body. The idea started when I began to be overwhelmed at all the possibilities and my desire to try everything at once.  It took a good (and perhaps more reasonable) friend to suggest a more linear approach. Which seems like an excellent idea.
For now, the plans include Phase 2 & Phase 3 (which may take a few weeks longer than 30 days to complete all the workouts), a month of Crossfit, one of Body Envy, one with Fitness Trainers, one of Boxing, and possibly a month of swimming and yoga. Any ideas would be welcomed. I'm excited to see where these months lead!
If you'd like to follow my diet, which is also crucial to these changes, I'm on myfitnesspal.com, username christinmarie.
These are my "before" pictures, taken today:

This is my favorite so it gets to be the biggest

My roommate told me I should look as big and
 as miserable as possible for my before pictures. 


This is me poking out me stomach for the same reason
I have it on good authority that my back is
actually more defined than it appears in this picture.

And this is what "sucking in" aka "flexing" can do
