Looked my worst in June 2013 (pic on left)
Started lifting June 2014.

Lost 16 lbs since June 2013 that is all. But the inches

Right pic is September 4th 2015

Still belly to loose but it's a long and fun journey

I was scared myself for a long time but don't be scared, lifting is fun! As far as cardio, I rarely do cardio specific stuff but do crossfit workouts several times a week week which frequently include HIIT type cardio. I run maybe once a week or whenever the mood strikes.

Incredible! What is your diet like?

Feb 2015 picture is the exact day I started lifting. This is far from my heaviest adult weight, but it's where I started in terms of lifting.



And some more recent pictures of me:


And a side by side of Feb to August:

In Feb, I did not own the bottom to this bikini. It was bought at a later date.

Before is March 2015 at about 140lbs (I'm 5'8"), after is just yesterday at 128lbs and having been eating at maintenance since June. Start lifting today, you won't regret it! It is scary at first but you gain confidence with time. I wish I had started earlier.
