I'm 5ft8 and 18 years old. My weight loss journey has started last december and I'm finally seing results! I came across an old pic from last summer and was kind of choked. Thought I'd share it with you guys. Not 100% happy yet but I'm getting there!

    Baha I'm dumb. I think I was just so focused on her teeny waist that I didn't notice! I want a waist like that! Bahaha. But ya... Sorry for asking a totally stupid question!!!

    you go, girl! i'm 5'8" too but definitely have a bigger frame than you. i'm hoping to get to 150 from 180 right now. my SUPER dream goal is 140 -- or at least LOOK that. i focus a lot on lifting and cardio, so i think my muscle mass might take up those ten pounds, if not more. =P

    You look so great! Fantastic job... so impressed!

    If ever you would like to post a picture, type this:

    gdm9A.jpg

    but instead of IMG, it would have to be img. And, pictures which are too large will unfortunately go offscreen, so they would need to be resized. :/
  • Great job! Congrats!

    Wow. You look cute. Good job.
  • ATTA GIRL!!! Great job!!!
  • Oh my gosh, I did not expect such a positive response! Thanks to all of you I really appreciate it! And as for the people asking me how I did it, Cardio, strength training, clean eating and LOTS of determination! I usually workout about 5 times a week. And don't forget to indulge once in a while and drink plentyyyyy of water :)

    There is no secret tip, unfortunately! But it is possible and it feels great seeing results!
