My wife is after some inspiration and has just started her journey. I've been looking through before and after pictures but I cant find any that go from 150lb to 105lb at that height so she can know what body composition may be like at that weight.

If you have made this journey and wouldn't mind sharing a before and after we would appreciate it!

Its just a basic indicator I know but I think it'll help inspire her. Thanks for reading

    My highest weight was 145 lbs. I am 5'0" Anything less than 115 lbs and I stop menstruating. I am a size 2 at that weight. I dont think that weight is realistic for some people unless you have a very small frame.

    Thanks for that info! The goal is health but on TDEE calculators it says 105-120. It's good to know as we wouldn't want to upset her natural balance. Thanks

    here ya go. I am 5'1.75. LOL If your wife is younger I think she may have even better results! I don't lift on purpose except for a few home hand weights, situps and pushups in addition to running. I think my time at the barn in the evenings accounts for building muscle on my arms and shoulders. I have gotten pretty woo'd for my bikini pic here before but I feel like I made a lot of progress at 59.

    I have been maintaining since last Oct now. I don't think you have to lift heavy to tone if you don't want to. Better to find some activity you really enjoy like tennis or rowing which uses those muscles naturally. Just my opinion.
