    I'm interested in this too. I'm not quite there since I have 22.9% BF right now. But I'll try to take a new picture anyway to give you a sense of that higher number.

    Funny, I just had my Before/After pic up on my profile today for the first time in a long time. No idea what my BF% was at my heaviest, but in the After pic, it's at 19%, tested by the immersion method, so pretty accurate.

    I'm 5'1" tall. At my heaviest, I was about 148 pounds, in the After, i'm about 104.

    When I reached my goal weight in about March, I started lifting. I was about 23% then. This is after about 6 months.

    BTW, I am going to be 58 in less than 3 months. The baby is my grandniece. She's just turned two now.

    I don’t know if you can tell the difference because I’m clothed in the before pictures. I was about 27 percent body fat in the pictures from before, I don’t know about now but I think it’s closer to maybe 20ish? My before pictures aren’t the best because I hated the camera at 145 pounds lol those after pictures are actually from a couple month ago, my legs are a bit more muscular now I just haven't taken a progress picture in forever

    So how did you loose the body fat ladies? I index stand that lifting works but you then have to eat more too to build muscle..

    Oh my goodness!! I would have guessed your age to be in the mid to late 20s! Such an inspiration thank you!

    You can definitely see a difference! Great job! How long did it take you to get to where you are and what was your workout routine? Also how many calories did you eat? Closer to weightloss calories or closer to maintenance calories? Thank you :)
