    I'm still a work in progress but 30.4lbs down in 70 days doing ZUmba for 30-45mins a day and then walking pushing my son in his stroller for 30-45mins each day. Then I ate at a calorie deficit. I started my calories out at about 1300-1350. I worked out 7days a week though and often did Zumba in the evening after my son went to bed and walking in the morning when he was awake. I don't have a babysitter so I do all my workouts from home :) Still have a looooong way to go but there's hope yet! :bigsmile:

    if you are asking for people that just did stuff at home, then this is me. on the left is me at 260 while on vacation during August 2011. on the right its me at about 215 in early December. Don't let the lighting fool you, my chest was not that defined. all i did was cycling and some running, and mostly body weight stuff such as push ups.

    Well, im FAR from finished.. but this was my 90 day loss.. I went down 26.6 pounds and 35.5 inches. I went from a tight size 20 jeans to a snug size 14.. but hey.. its a friggin 14!!!

    Anyhoo.. I use an elliptical for 15-20 minutes about 3 times per day 5 days per week. I have a cheat DAY (not a meal, an entire day) every Saturday, which includes unreal amounts of beer.. LOL Im talking like 18! I also do squats (10-15 three times per day 5 days a week) and stand up on my toes (same reps) counter push ups (same reps) and i take a full 2-liter bottle behind my head and raise and lift it.. (again, same reps) I do not give up ANY SINGLE THING at all in my diet, except soda, and only because my meds make it taste like crap. LOL I watch my calories, and use portion control only. I eat exactly the same things I did before.

    **Note... my diary the last 2 weeks should not be looked at, due to the fact that i have had bacterial pneumonia ( I have COPD) and i have eaten VERY poorly, and sometimes not at ALL.. (i ALWAYS log.. if there is nothing log, i didnt eat) Also.. for some reason, the last two days.. the only thing that has stayed in my stomach has been subway pizza and just now, part of a sub. Not even a protein shake stayed down! However im feeling much better today & hopefully that will continue!

    So, here are my pics! Hope you have a great day!!

    **I also have a cooking blog which revolves around my diet, and about eating using portion control, without giving up anything!

    No gym here.
    I bought an elliptical trainer, and used it every single day since January 2012.
    Of course I was eating with a calorie deficit as well.
    I lost about 50 lbs so far.
    Now I want to get in shape and lose the last 10 lbs... I started Insanity yesterday.

    I exercise at home. 22lbs so far (as you can see on my ticker).
    I just took some pics a week or so where you can actually see my body, as the other ones I have at my heaviest are me fully clothed... harder to see exactly where all the lumps are! But I will have some more to compare to in a few weeks!

    I do at least 40 min all out on the elliptical daily, and use dumbells and my bowflex.
    Hubby just got me a med sized exercise ball, wrist and ankle weights, a yoga mat and a waist reducer thingy (and I will have to look up what that is for).
    I use online videos along with the cardio- here are a few I love:

    I dont know how to post pictures. I have lost 62 pounds since March and have not step foot in a gym. I have been eating healthy using MFP. I really took a liking to Jillian Michaels. I started with Shred, then did Ripped in 30, and then kickboxing. I just recently started using 6 pack in 6 weeks and love it!!!! You will see HUGE results with Jillian and her work outs range from 20 min to 40 minutes ...perfect if you have a family and have to squeeze it in.

    you can add med look at my blog on MFP. I go to a zumba class once in a while. I do run/jog/walk depending on what I am feeling. I am also another person that does Jillian Michaels. I have pics on my MFP blog of what progress I have made in 4 months and work started back recently. I have been busy but still staying on track with my eating and just need to exercise more.

    I didn't do gym either. I do clean diet + walking or running around my neighborhood. I occasionally do a yoga class (not with a gym, with a yoga place, I like the hippy dippy places more than "gym yoga." Haha)

    You'd have to go to my profile and look. I've never been able to figure out how to post pics in a thread. The pics that are up, I think they are the ones when I was down 98 lbs. I did not go to the gym and I did not exercise at home. That was all diet. I have since incorporated walking into my routine.
    '

    I wanted to know what type of diet you did in which no exercise was needed....I cannot get my diet program right! Any suggestions?
