    Question.... With women that have more then 80 pounds to loose... Should they wait until they loose their weight to start weight training or can they do it now? Would appreciate the help!

    Although I've been on & off lifting weights before but I started lifting heavy seriously last year & now can squat 75 lbs., lunge & bench press 60 lbs., deadlift 30 kg. or about 70 pounds & can do arm & shoulder exercises using 35 lbs. each arm.

    Your transformation is amazing! Wow

    Wow, just Wow!!! Thanks ladies for the inspiration. I just finished NROLW and I'm super excited to get started... I'm still researching a few local gyms in the area but I hope to get started in the next week or two. I had no intention of taking "before" and "after" pictures but I most certainly will, if only just for me to document the progress I'll be making. Hopefully if I'm brave enough I'll put them up here.

    Really, though, the women on this thread rock. I am proud to be counted among them. :)

    After shedding 120-ish pounds doing mostly cardio with some strength training but not a whole lot:

    After focusing primarily on strength training for about 3 months:

    I do strength training about 2-3x/week and eat about 2500 calories/day and about 180 g protein on average.

    Erm... okay! I'll go. Consider this my work-in-progress. I know you wouldn't be able to tell anyway in the first pic because I'm not flexing, but believe me I started out with zero muscle. Been strength training for about 2.5 months.
