    Whoa. So all that amazing muscle was under there, or were you lifting at the same time?

    I did fasted cardio in the mornings before work, and heavy lifting after work, with each day focusing on different body parts

    I did fasted cardio in the mornings (stairs, incline walk, spin bike) before work around 5am. After work, I would lift weights for about an hour, depending on how busy the gym was and what body part I was doing. I did legs twice a week, shoulders, back, chest, and arms, all on separate days. The MAIN FACTOR in all this = diet. I meal prepped twice a week and was very strict with my diet. No cheats until closer to May/June when my body started responding and actually needed a refeed meal.

    I'm 5'4 and started at 128lbs. Which isn't an unhealthy weight by any means, but I felt uncomfortable. I am also a bikini competitor, so I'm used to doing strict diets for a period of time up to a show. However, this time I wanted to just lose weight and be comfortable. I had, and continue to have, 2 coaches that developed a simple meal plan and I would send them weekly updates. The months I wasn't dropping weight, I would be extremely discouraged, but they always would say "you've changed what you're eating and you're eating healthy food, so your body can't be gaining anymore weight." You basically have to trust the process. If you're eating healthy, then eventually your body will catch up. Finally, one week I dropped 3 pounds and from there, everything started flowing

    I eat 6 meals a day. Each have some protein source (egg whites, chicken, white fish) with veggies. I include carbs (basmati rice, oatmeal, potato) in the meals before and after my workout

    It wasn't easy. I had a strict diet and daily workouts with cardio sessions. The first two months I only lost 1 pound. Very easy to give up, but you have to trust the process and progress will come!!

    This is so inspirational! You look so good!

    Congratulations! Thank you for sharing. I feel so encouraged by you being honest that you only lost 1 pound in the first two months. I'm week 5/6 into strict diet and exercise and finding it hard not seeing any shift on the scales, but I know it will come, just got to stick in there. I'm top end of 'normal' so could easily sit back and look 'ok' but at 43, don't want the year-on-year creep!!
