Im CLEARLY not done yet. But my loss has come from my belly mostly, especially around my ribs (notice it more when Im laying down). Heres my progress (not before and after) pix.
Im doing high protein (150g a day) and reduced my carb intake. I have cut out soda (only drank diet, now only have one every couple days instead of daily) and have been drinking more water (about 100-120oz a day). I also started working out (something I never did before). I walk/run 2 miles a day (averaging approx 30 min) & do kettlebell swings, presses and deadlifts. I also do upper body weight training since I have a very weak upper body. You need to use lots of core muscles while doing strength training of any kind so that has helped. I saw a increase in my width for a while because I was building muscle under the fat and so I grew instead of shrunk. Its taking a while for my fat to come off but its getting there.
Looking great!! I also have that annoying "Apron" bit that hangs down... I've been a bit worried about how that's going to go with weight loss. It's lovely to get some hope that it'll go away! Thanks!
Everyone is so inspirational! Thanks all so much!0 -
First pic was October 9, 2011 at around 130 pounds. Second pic was two days ago at about 115 pounds. I lost about 15 pounds. I hope to lose about 5 more and then continue to tone. I have been having the hardest time losing weight and I think it's because I am already pretty petite and naturally muscular. Lately I have cleaned up my diet ever MORE by scaling down the amount of carbs (pasta!) and dairy I consume. I am lactose intolerant and the dairy left me bloated all the time. I feel as if I have lost inches but I still weight the same. Doesn't bother me too much. I am 4'11!
I do cardio 5-6 days a week for about an hour. I bike for 20 minutes, stair master for 20 minutes, and jog for 20 minutes. I take a CORE class twice a week. I lift weights 2-3 days a week.0 -
