The before photo I had just washed my hair  put conditioner on it and pulled it back.  I have no make up on except that my lipstick didn't come off when I took off my makeup. I was using a lip stain. In the second set of photos it's just me (no nothing, not even sunblock). I never thought anyone but me would look at these pictures!  Remember that was only an 11 week difference.  I have very far to go.

I did not think that the exercises would work. When I purchased the set I thought I just threw away more money.   I had tried others and didn't see any real difference, but these exercises build the muscle.   Since I have done bodybuilding the concept made since, but I still believed what the doctors had told me. I saw some difference in about 10 days.  Also,I thought if it didn't work I was just going to mortgage my house and get a face lift.  My husband be damned!!  Luckily, I didn't have to.

I have roseca so that made me very skeptical regarding the massage.  I had a hard time talking myself into the massage the first few times.  In fact, the first time I did the massage it took about an hour.  I was sitting in the bathroom looking in the mirror.  Going very slowly.   The difference in the redness of my face is that about a month after starting the exercises I began using the CP Serum.  It has really helped my redness. It says nothing about that on his site,  I was just looking for more collagen.  But, it has done a wonderful job on the redness.   My husband said I looked thinner but  weight was the same. Still is.   

The program I followed the first week I only did the video, from the second week to the present I do the 40 or so out of the book 5 days a week and do the massage once a week. I take the cards with me and as I do one of the exercises I put the card in the zipper of my purse.  If I am at home I just put them in a drawer as I finish one.  I do the neck exercise before I go to bed.  Whatever is left at the end of the day I do at bedtime.  Some days I do them all in the morning, it just depends on what is going on and how I feel.
