Please don't try to lose that much in 30 days--you could do damage to your body! The number one priority is your health; size/weight should be secondary. A balanced diet, regular exercise, water, and discipline are the four key components to losing weight and keeping it off. :) Like DisneyVillain says, auditions will always be there! - Spoonful_O_Sugar436.1 #285 3-8-12 8:43AMLike(2) Reply

It definitely isn't for everyone. You really just need to let go of your inhibitions and have fun with it! Just because I used to dance doesn't mean i look good doing it!! Everyone looks silly. Trust me. To enjoy it you really need to stop caring about how you look and just have fun! Sometimes I dont even follow the moves correctly I just dance to the music!!

I agree. It could be one verse or two. For a lot of Disney songs, 16 bars is 2 verses
If you have the music, count the bars within the section you are singing

That's great! But don't be too disappointed if you don't keep up that pace for more than 2 miles. I found it very very hard to run fast for a long time, so I slowed down and felt much better physically. But I wish you luck on that 12 min pace!

Day one has now begun! I'm also implementing a diet I've been trying to implement for awhile now.

Showing up at the auditions is pretty much all you can do. Then it's out of your hands. the casting director knows exactly what he's looking for and he won't settle.
