Hello everyone!

Last october I hit rock bottom and finally decided to get my lazy fat *kitten* off the couch. Instead of complaining about everything I got back on MFP and joined a gym. Turned out to be the best decision I've ever made. :wink:

Started at 194 pounds, currently 23 years old and 5'8"ish tall, BF at approx 22%. My measurements are 35 - 26 -36.

I lift heavy 3x a week (adjusted the NROLFW routine a bit) and I'm loving it! Still waiting for those bulky manly muscles btw. I HATE cardio with a passion but started running a few weeks ago. Yes, I totally suck at it.

I really tried to find a few before pictures, wasn't easy. Hate having my pictures taken. :ohwell:

Bought my first bikini ever today! The public is not ready for this yet but hey it's MFP. :laugh:

    If by "the public isn't ready", you mean "the public will stand around like idiots with their eyes popped out and their tongues lolling", sure, I agree with you.

    You look beyond hott in that swimsuit. Rock it, my dear.
