    Yes, but it depends on how much u have to lose, age, how much u r willing to put into it. I am 50 and have lost a total of 138 lbs 115 since joining mfp I would say I am fit , I do have a little bit of lose skin but with clothes on u cant really tell and it is getting toner all the time.i went from having high blood pressure, high chlesterol, liver and kidney function messed up to having low blood pressure, chlesterol is now normal, liver and kidney functions are now normal, I also have fibromyalgia and pain levels r so much better...,,, so yes possible and sooooo worth it

    No, it's not. If you're fat, you should just give up.





    Done!

    What do you all think? Do you think if you have gained weight that it possible to get perfectly toned afterwards?

    The many before and after photos threads in the Success Stories forum will answer your question better than anything that I could ever type! :smile:

    You're not going to ditch any stretch marks you may have without surgical wizardry, and you may have loose skin on some parts of your body that will never completely tighten up and look like you were never overweight. But you can absolutely get really, really close if you're willing to work that hard. Just be prepared for it to take a really, really long time. I'm almost at the 4 year mark myself.

    I don't have any proper "before" photos (as in half naked ones), but this is me before (in red) and after losing about 115 lbs:
