at my highest goal, i wasn't obese or anything, not even overweight. i was on the heavier side of a healthy weight. but STILL, i had so many rude comments on my body, especially on my legs, where i carry most of my weight.
it all started to change when a friend took an amateur photoshoot of me. i looked at the photos and went like "NO WAY, am i really as big as people make me out to be?". i asked my friends if they knew any good ways to lose belly/leg fat. they sent me a few links to really amazing workout videos. i changed my diet. cut out white bread, pizza, soda, juice, sweet rolls etc. i also added some veggies and fruit to my meals
6 months after....

Before:
Height - 5ft 6 1/2"
Weight - 142/3 lbs
BMI - 23
Body Fat % - 27%
Jeans size - bigger 8/ smaller 9
Bust - 35
Waist - 28
Hips - 40
After:
Height - 5ft 6 1/2"
Weight - 119 lbs

currently looking forward to maintain my measurements/clothing sizes and gaining some muscle. yes, i know i might look really skinny on my upper body. that's why i want to gain muscle
