So, four weeks into healthy eating + an extra 3 X 30 min exercise sessions per week = 12 pounds lighter

That's great ROS!
I have not changed my eating too much other than I seem to be eating smaller portions plus the high energy KB workouts I am thinning out in the gut but growing in the shoulders so its win/win for me.

Do you attribute the success more towards the diet or increase in exercise minutes? or both?
Congratulations

Thanks everyone. Do you attribute the success more towards the diet or increase in exercise minutes? or both? Probably more towards the diet, as it's far easier to consume less calories than it is to work them off, but exercise definitely makes me feel less hungry.

I went to a free HIIT session last night that my fat fighters instructor was running. It was basically gentle aerobics as an active rest, interspersed with 45 seconds of all-out activity (2:1). I got a bit nostalgic as the all-out bits were old favourites like fast feet, high knees, jump squats and burpees...ah, burpees. Was knackered after 30 minutes of it, so have signed up to four weeks of it starting at the end of July. Now, I just need to find someone to punch and kick while Monty's out of action!

Just got back from the first of a four week 'Boot Camp' class at work (it's just circuit training, really). A girl I work with in the lab also came and yesterday she was telling me how competitive she is and how she has to win everything, yada, yada. I just said "Don't worry, I'm not competitive at all." I'll just say now that there are no prizes for guessing the ending of this story! Everything fine...and then we got to the sprint circuit...and everything was fine when we were sprinting on the spot, just doing my own thing and not paying any attention to her...and then the instructor said "OK girls, sprint up and down the room." I lasted about a nanosecond before the little devil voice said "You're not going to let her beat you, are you?" and it turned out no, no I wasn't. Tee hee.
