I'm just starting out, I'm looking into Strong Curves also...not sure what equipment I will need? Kudos to you for your amazing results, I can't wait to start and see change.

5 months lifting 3x a week with sporadic HIIT. For reference, I am 5'3" and in the photo I am approximately 152 lbs.



Unfortunately this was a couple years back, I let it slide, and now I am back to lifting hoping to "re-achieve".

<----20 months of heavy lifting. Down 40lbs and 5 sizes (from a 16 to 6). I am wearing smaller clothes than when I was 15lbs lighter. I've had cellulite since I was 12 and it is nearly gone. Wish I had started lifting years ago.

Love it! Did you do any cardio? Asking becuase starting new rules when my membership to my fitness class runs out.

I have started weight trening last week and I love it. It is so hard to memorize which exercise should be done what day and how many reps and weight. But but practise makes you perfect right?
Please friend me if you lift and you eat clean, I would live to see your diary.
Thanks!

Started lifting in January of last year. I've made some progress, but still have a long way to go.

I started 6 Months ago, Lifting 3x a week (60min) for the first 5 months, now I lift 5x a week (60-80min). I kinda got addicted to the feeling ^-^ The progress so far has been amazing. I started as a really flabby, untoned 52 kilo (115lbs) girl, 66 centimeters waist and no booty.

115lbs -> 108lbs
Waist 26 inches -> 23.5 inches
Flat booty -> booty too big for my old pants
Cellulite is completly gone, but I hadn't that much to start with

I think Lifting is absolutly awesome, you feel stronger and healthier, and I personally think every woman I know who started lifting looks much better and happier Also, it's nice to be stronger than my brother, father and guy friends

Great job everyone! This post is inspiring!

I just started working out again and have been thinking of doing weight lifting. Is this something I can do at home? I'd like some suggestions on where to start at home... and maybe eventually I can get the gym membership. Thanks!

Other than the HIIT included in the program and some walking, I didn't do any cardio. I have 3 small kids (which does keep me moving a lot!) and I couldnt get myself to go to the gym more than 3X week. Fat loss is all about eating at a deficit. To avoid compromising strength gains and muscle, I ate at a 10%-20% deficit. Some cardio is great if you have cardio-oriented goals or you want to eat more, but I personally didnt need it.
I now do one Zumba class a week just for fun, not for results.
