    I was giving you a compliment.
    Thought you looked nice. That's all.
    I can't please everyone.

    I don't know if you can. You might be able to message one of the mods but you can't edit any posts at this point...hmmm.

    Are you very worried? We can't see your face and you look great. I actually got a little jealous :/

    I would like to maintain my booty also, although I don't have the small waist like you do. Nowloss dot com also has some info on keeping that shape with hip thrusts, etc.
    How have you been losing the weight after you stopped herbalife? I'd love to get down some lbs and having a hard time even though I'm working out.

    I think you've gotten some great advice from other MFP users. I thought I’d add one more experience. I’m also pear-shaped and didn't want to lose my booty. In January, I started with the Brazil Butt Lift (BBL) program from BeachBody (I’m a sucker for informercials…). I was realistic and knew that I would never have a booty like the model on the cover, but I stuck with it for the full 8 weeks starting in January. I also weighed and logged all of my food using a digital scale for accuracy.

    After reading all of the forums, and getting bored with the “strength” workout included in BBL, I started to include some heavy lifting. I read the forums, New Rules (NROLFW), Strong Curves, Strong lifts 5x5, Female Body Breakthrough… you get the idea. In the end, I decided to go with Jamie Eason’s Live Fit Trainer. It’s a 12 week program that’s provided for free through Bodybuilding.com. What sold me, over the other programs, was Bodybuilding.com’s app – BodySpace. I could track all of my workouts with my phone, view progress, etc. They even include links to the exercises so you can watch form videos if you’re not sure how to do the move.

    I completed Phase 1 & Phase 2 (8weeks) but opted to move on to something else before finishing the whole program. Phase 3 still includes a lot of lifting, but also a lot of cardio. Now that I know what I like and what I want, I used the BodySpace app to create my own workouts that I can track. I've taken the Strong Lifts A & B days and added glute bridges, hip thrusts, box step ups, and lunges (from Strong Curves) plus some tricep and back work. It takes about 40-45 minutes to complete. I do those workouts 3 days a week followed by a 20 minute HIIT workout if I have time. On 3 other days, I do the High and Tight workout from BBL. It includes a lot of inner/outer thigh and booty work with resistance bands and ankle weights.

    I’m still a work in progress, but my booty is probably the best it’s ever looked. I've lost 24 pounds since January and have another 7 to go till I reach my ultimate goal. I gave myself a 6 month commitment, so hopefully I’ll be posting progress pics at the end of June.

    Youre awesome! :). Im giving my self a 6 month run as well...with heavy weights to recomp. I am doing 21 day fix right now until June and then Im doing p90x3. On the days p90x may lift a lot, I will do my heavy lift days in the gym instead. I have a loooot of work to do. You all may not seeit but I have big goals and my clothes hide alot of mush.

    @RoundDoz You will. I think its great that your giving yourself 6 months and being realistic. I'm doing the same. I know recomp is slow. So my goal was 6 months as well. Keep me posted. I'll do the same.
