Daaang girlfran! You got some banging booty in the process too! congrats, that is hard to attain. I have been working my *kitten* off, to get an *kitten*! haha I am starting lifting today followed by cardio instead of my usual HIIT and cardio, so watch my pics for the next 2-3 months, I am hoping for a 6 pack this time. haha

bahahaha - It's enormous, and I love it. 24" waist and 37" booty in that pic.

Bump for drooling over later...

Thanks everyone.

That's fantastic for just one year. It took me longer than that just to figure out which way was up, lol.

Yeah I did all the stupid newbie stuff but luckily the calorie deficit and a lifting program still did the job despite all the nonsense I mucked it up with. lol

I'm in!

The proof is in the pudding... that I eat... ok actually it's more like ice cream... but you get the point....

@ lulu - HOLY AMAZEBALLS! You rock!

This is where I was by just doing pilates when I hit my goal weight:


These are from July--the first time I finished doing The Body Sculpting Bible for Women:





And these are from the last couple weeks--in the middle of my 3rd time during the Body Sculpting Bible for Women:




**That is my closet door--there is no stripper poll in the last photo (I get asked that a lot.)

Great results, everybody!!!

I started at a little worse than this:



I gained about 8-10 pounds between that photo (July 2010) and starting here in December 2010. Mercifully, there's no photos from other angles, although it would be fun for comparison's sake.

Lost weight doing mostly cardio and a little bit of body weight and 5 pound dumbbell circuit stuff. Started lifting heavier in July of 2011, but mostly used machines at the gym because it was Planet Fitness and their free weight selection sucked. In July of 2012, I quit the gym and got free weights for home. I putzed around for a couple months not following any program, then started Stronglifts in September. The last photos are at the end of week 10 last week.







And one more. Yay, squats!

@LorinaLynn - You are my hero.

Your backside is AMAZING! *jealous* :ohwell:

I started out looking like this ( :-( ) pics from sept 13, 2012:


and this...


and then I decided I didn't want to be fat just because I had a baby.


And that's when I started picking up heavy things.. and putting them down, and then doing it all over again.

And 2 months later I looked like this:


and this...


and this and this...




I'm not "there" yet... but I'm working on it.

(And yeah, that's a rocker in the background. MY baby hangs out and hollers at me while I workout some days... he's 6 months old.

Holy cow! That is amazing!

I wants to look like you guys. You rock!

I started doing stronglifts almost 2 months ago - the time difference is a little less than a month - same weight, but have gone down a pants size and even those are getting baggy. Was wearing an 18/16 and am now in a 14 and could probably fit in some 12's right now.
