    How much weight is that difference? That is an incredible change. Would love to make that kind of progress in a month.

    You know also...it probably depends on how relaxed he was in the first picture lol. I can make myself look 10mos pregnant still if I'm just lounging =p.

    I still think it's incredible work though...he's got a lot to be proud of!

    well for me, I am doing weight training, and Cardio, I focused more on Cardio to trim down the weight, I am switching more to strength training now.

    The key really is the diet, dump the crap food, and eat better, healthier, it allows the body to build and distribute the calories better.

    I also think the second pic is closer and I am tanner, and my hair shorter..lol

    Basically eating smaller portions and more often, less beer.

    Hi everyone! Okay, here is my comparison shot. Excuse the bad colors as I used two different cameras. I see the biggest difference in my stomach and mid-section and unfortunately (as usual) no difference in the butt. LOL It just wants to stay with me forever! For those of you who are curious, I am 5'4" and 130 lbs.

    I've been slacking in taking my July pic, mostly because I don't think there is any difference, besides facial hair :laugh:

    Ok, ok *hands up* I'm SO late posting these, but they were taken on the 5th. Just got really busy with home improvements. June turned out to be one ginormous plateau for me, I'm only down 1lb, so I think any "differences" can be chalked up to lighting mostly (like where I'm standing in relation to the light coming in through the front door, though they were taken at the same time of day).

    edited to add: yeah, after looking at the side-by-sides, that 1lb had to be all derrière. I want it back!!!

    Alright, here goes. I lost a decent amount of weight over the past month, but despite feeling like I look thinner, these pics don't seem to show it! Anyway, my first swimsuit one didn't show my full body, so I'm going to post that, along with two from June, and then my July swimsuit shots....kind of new at posting pics, so hope it comes out alright...

    Here's my new picture!

    After one month, I lost 3.5 pounds (it could have been 4-5 pounds, but I ate a pasta dinner last friday night, and I kinda retained some water from that night still.
