    After being that big and losing all that weight, u didn't have any surgery for xtra skin? Just by working out and eating healthy ur skin tighten all on its own? I'm just wondering bc I don't weigh that much but I get worried after losing even 30lbs won't I have a loose skin? I use to have a stomach like that before my son!

    @kaybee1121‌ I do have loose skin. It's just low enough it tucks into my underwear or swim suit. It is slowly tightening.

    OMG you are definitely an inspiration and are so right. There will always be an excuse unless you want it bad enough. And, I do. I consider myself an addict, a food addict, so I haven't hit rock bottom, but don't want to either! I'm pretty close to it. Would love to hear your opinion. I started doing P90X three years ago. I loved it, it kept my attention, it was working, until I started putting on a lot of muscle that I was fine with. I lost 27 pounds and came to a stand still right around the same time that my schedule got really crazy. I never considered myself totally outta shape, just overweight. It was rough in the beginning. Every day was easier and easier. I was getting stronger and stronger. My stamina was thru the roof! My husband didn't like the transformation. I don't think he liked my confidence, energy, and better moods. Lol, he isn't a big fan of me doing anything to improve myself. Anywho, I was going to nursing school and it got so crazy hard to do with husband, three kids vary different in age, a house, dogs, guinea pigs, family with problems, needy friends, ugh, I let myself go. I let myself down. That all said, I wondered why I never toned and lost my "problem" areas? My stomach, terrible. My inner thighs were better but not anywhere near what I wanted. What do you think is the best exercises to burn the fat most efficiently??? I didn't mind the muscle at all. I lost P90X, so ordered P90 since it seemed more cardio and it has kinda disappointed me. It is half the workout and I feel like nothing I try even comes close to P90X, the first program that I was on. Only did the 90 days and never got back into it. But I am very active but with everyday things.

    @christinabsmith5 This is your life and your body. Your husband might not like it, but you need to take care of yourself and be confident. Many people are worried their spouse will get in shape and leave them, so take time to show him you are still fully devoted to him.

    As far as your trouble spots and burning fat. You can't spot reduce. There's a link in my original post at the bottom on how I lost the fat. You aren't going to put on much if any muscle on a calorie deficit, but you can preserve what you have. The reason our muscles feel bigger and harder when we first start is part muscle memory and part burning the intramuscular fat.
