With that weight and your measurements, I'm sure you already will look great in shorts and swimsuit.

I wish that was the case. I look fine with jeans on. I am to hide my flaws. It seems to me that since losing the weights I notice even more. I wonder if there will ever come a time when I am satisfied with what I see in the mirror.

If self-confidence is the issue, I recommend posting in chit-chat. Yeah, I know there's a motivation and support section, but trust me, chit-chat is where everyone gets their ... ego? ... stroked.

I call mine Bob. Ego is a weird name for it.

Wow!! @senecarr I am not looking to get my ego stroked. I am wanting to learn how to reach my goals the most effective way.

When I do my squats I go as low as the bench. I definitely do not go as low as what is shown in the videos. That just seems really low. I do not know if my knees can take that.

Do what's comfortable. If you can at least get down to parallel, you're doing a good squat. I like to go below parallel, as shown in the video, but I rarely see people going that low.

As I said, practice your form and see what you can do. Then progress from there.

It was a joke because 99% of the useful advice was already posted.

If you're eating at a deficit and lifting with a focus on legs, I think you're on the right track and you just need to be patient. These things take time. Remember that you are your own worst critic. Focus on what you've accomplished and keep working!
