    but I haven't been able to even lift one pound weights without inducing pain (sooooo much more than just soreness), and I'm not doing more than two reps of five!

    This seems like a serious limitation -- are you under the direction of a physical therapist?

    Does using an elliptical with the resistance turned up work for resistance? I'm confused about what to do. I tried doing some minor arm exercise with a light weight and it started to make my shoulder hurt. So if I can't do heavy lifting what can I do to get my stomach flat and continue to lose fat all over? I think I can still plank, well that and cardio work?

    @auntstephie321 Can you swim? That would be a good workout for your muscles.

    Yeah I do that in the summer. Our pool won't be open for a few weeks

    I see it most around your armpits and your thighs are definitely slimmer. And it's only two month's difference, you're doing great! Btw, if I ever look anything vaguely close to you I'll think I've died and gone to heaven!
