    I see you're using photobucket. You should be able to make them smaller there.

    thank you....it's after seeing this photo that I do look slim now ( compare to ones I took earlier in the year)....I don't see it when I look in the mirror as I'm blinded by my weight...i'm not looking at the scale anymore, think I might have a break from that and just continue with this programme....
    I don't understand the photobucket and reducing the size...i'm awful on it...I've no idea! I was going to put my before photos on but theyre' just so large!!

    With Photobucket, you select the picture, then edit, then resize. Hope this helps!

    thanks everyone you're all too kind! I'm glad I took them as I HAVE to walk away from the scales....I just look at my wobbles and am blinded by the old chubby me! thank you :flowerforyou:
    weights are just so important. I did 6 months of intense cardio and loved it....but it's weight training that's changed my figure

    forgot to add that i'm 5ft5 and 140 pounds, stuck at that weight for couple of months....was originally 154 but that's taken a year to get down 14 pounds. With cardio only I lost 7 pounds and then was stuck for about 5 months so started weight training and it budged again but now stuck again but I'm going to hide the scales!

    Guess it's my turn since I hit my first goal...originally I thought I would be happy to get back to what was my "normal" before my injury. However, now that I see what others have accomplished I'm not stopping here. I want to look good with or without clothes and I'm not there yet!! At this point I'm going to concentrate on getting stronger, lifting heavier, and decreasing my body fat. Unfortunately that will mean I'm stuck eating at a deficit for a while longer but it will be worth it someday. Our next cruise is in 77 days and I have lots of work to do to be swimsuit ready for it!!!

    I either don't have much muscle yet or it's still hiding out behind my fat. I will get there though...I will not give up!!

    I'm at the stage where I'm comfortable in clothes now, but not without.

    Well dang, look at you!!! :drinker:
    Ok, now I feel silly, 'cause I saw that pic of you in the swimsuit in the other thread (lost 50+ lbs thread) and TOTALLY didn't clue in that it was you...just thought "wow, she did great!" LOL
    Seriously, you've done a fantastic job and have been so consistent. I'm sure the days leading up to your well-deserved cruise will go well, and then you can show off those CLEARLY VISIBLE guns whilst wearing tank tops in whatever warm and sunny destination you have planned :)

    Great pics christianteach! I hope you are really proud of yourself, like cmeirun said you have done fantastic and been consistent. I love your plans for the future - to keep lifting and getting stronger. Can't wait to hear all about the cruise! Oh, and cute swimsuit :smile:

    That's a good thing!! I never would have put that picture out there in the main forum if I thought anyone would know it was me!!! And thanks again! I hope I make a lot more progress between now and that cruise. I have 77 days to work on it. :tongue:
