Hey ladies,
I normally don’t post in forums, but I felt like I HAD to share this experience. Because if someone had told me a month ago that I’d be sitting here, 10 pounds lighter, feeling stronger and actually enjoying the process… I would’ve rolled my eyes.
I’ve tried everything—keto, calorie counting, HIIT programs that made me feel like my soul was leaving my body. Nothing ever stuck because I just don’t have the time to dedicate hours to workouts or meal prepping. Between my job, two kids, and trying to maintain some semblance of a social life, my “me time” usually consists of scrolling Instagram in exhaustion.
What Changed?
I stumbled across The 30-Day Body Plan while searching for yet another “easy” workout plan. It was only $20, so I figured… why not? If it sucked, I’d only be out the price of a couple of lattes.
But what I didn’t expect was for it to actually work—and without turning my life upside down.
Here’s what made it different for me:
Workouts That Actually Fit Into My Life
Each session was 15-30 minutes max. That’s it. No hours in the gym, no complicated equipment—just simple movements that made me sweat but didn’t leave me half-dead on the floor.
A Realistic Approach to Food (No Starving Involved)
The plan didn’t force me to give up carbs or eat nothing but salads. The meal guide was so doable—just balanced meals I could whip up without a recipe book or a two-hour grocery run. Plus, the snacks were actually good (I will forever be grateful for the high-protein pancakes).
Progress That Didn’t Rely on the Scale
I wasn’t obsessing over my weight every morning because the program encouraged me to focus on how I felt—more energy, better sleep, and that little moment when your jeans start feeling looser.
The Results?
• Down 10 lbs in 30 days 
• More energy (I no longer feel like I need an IV drip of coffee at 3 PM)
• Clothes fitting better
• Feeling stronger, not just “skinnier”
I didn’t do it perfectly—I had off days, I had wine nights. But this is the first time I’ve actually finished a program without hating my life.
Should You Try It?
I’m not here to sell you on anything (I bought it myself, no sponsorship BS). But if you’re someone who: 
Is too busy for complicated workouts Hates feeling restricted with food Just wants something that works without taking over your life
…then honestly, just try it. It’s $20, and for the impact it had on me, that’s ridiculously worth it.
If nothing else, at least you’ll get some easy meal ideas and workouts you can actually stick to.
Anyway, just wanted to put this out there for anyone who’s on the fence. If you’re struggling to find something that doesn’t feel like a punishment, this might be it.
Let me know if any of you are doing it too—I’d love to hear how it’s going!
