Okay so I know that 20lbs isn't that bigger deal... not compared to these amazing stories of 50+

I am not aiming on really losing much else.

I am pretty proud of how far I've come. I have lost 23lbs however this 'improved' photo is my body around the 20lb loss :)

I am starting to see some abs. My focus right now is to 'sculpt' my body. I guess I am boasting in a way because I am proud! and want to flaunt my body :)

P.s. sorry about the little bandage, messy room and giant apendicitis surgery scar on my tummy!

Before at 156lbs (71kgs) -

After at 136lbs (62kgs) -

    You look great! How tall are you and what are the weights of those two pictures? I always like to see where other people are at and compare to myself, haha. I know everyone is different but it's interesting to see!

    You look great!!

    And by the way, your scar isn't even that noticable. I wouldn't have even seen it if you hadn't mentioned it.

    I wouldn't say 20lbs isn't that big of a deal. Any loss is great, and you look absolutely FANTASTIC with the loss you have accomplished. GREAT work! :)

    Very nicely done!

    It's scary how much difference it makes to women compared to men, so insead of looking at it as 10kgs lost, rather look at it as % of your bodyweight lost.

    I was 105kgs & I've lost 15kgs in 3 months, which is 14.3% of my initial bodyweight.

    You were 71kgs and lost "only" 10.45kgs, which is 14.7% of your initial bodyweight.

    So even though I lost 5kgs more than you, in relation to your own frame you lost more...

    Well done :)
