Hi all :-)

I'm 5"3 and currently weigh 142lb, my aim is to get to 119lb by June.. My fingers are crossed.

I need some encouragement, just put all these photo's together whilst bored at work to see if I genuinely see a difference.
My journey only really started a few months after the second photo was taken... I've done this slowly and I hope to speed up the process a little.

I am not too sure how to upload photo's on here but I think this should work:

What do you guys think of my journey so far?

I really need to work on my stomach to genuinely be happy with my body. Do any of you have any tips for me? Please add me also, I accept anyone

:-)

    Thank you doll, i've learnt how to post forums, i feel an addiction coming on! I know it's a long time between them all but it's the only photo's I found were appropriate and really show a difference in me.. Thank you gorgeous. x

    I, personally, think you are beautiful where you are right now and don't need to lose any more weight. To each his/her own though. You will know when you are where you want to be. Congratulations on your success.

    You look fantastic! As you lose weight, you also look younger and younger! That to me is very inspiring (at my age). :D I also started off about where you did. I have only just started and have only lost 2 lbs, but your pics inspire and motivate me. Please add me too!

    Thank you sweetie. Yes it's so hard to work on the stomach isn't it? I've not found anything and that's what i am insecure about most :-( Working out as much as possible is my only option for it I guess and see how that goes! Thank you x x :happy:

    It feels amazing hearing that i inspire you, i've added you. I am only young but yeah i see what you mean when i look back at my photo's! 2lb is a start though, that's great. I'm always happy i've not gained that's all even if it isn't much I have lost. :-) keep it up I'm here to support everyone. x :wink:

    You look great hun. Pretty too! :)

    I would say 119lbs is too small in my opinion, I think 125 is a better weight for your height. I'm 5'3.5 and my target is 128lbs and I think that is going to look pretty small, there is no way I would want to lose another 11lbs on top of that. My PT said there is no way he would support that either.

    I would rather be sculpted and weight 130lbs than just be skinny and 119lbs.

    I think you look great now though! :) x

    Re: your goal weight. 119 looks different on everyone. I am also 5'3'' and was 119 for about five minutes. :P In reality, I was hovering between 119 and 121, and I thought I looked fabulous. I'd say, once you hit 125 or so, take a good, as-objective-as-you-can look at yourself, and see if you're happy, or if you still want to push a little further.

    In any case, you look fabulous, and I might be sending you a friend request since our stats, goals, and time frame are pretty similar. ^_^

    Thank you girls you don't understand how much I appreciate that. Thank you :-)
    Yes definitely sometimes skinny doesn't suit people maybe I am stooping too low. I may hit 125 and feel really happy so only time will tell :) thank you all x x

    You look great! I agree 119 may look a lil too thin for you but if you can get there go for it. I will add you for encouragement as we are similar height/goal. Good luck on the rest of your journey.:wink:
