    How did you get rid of the man boobs.? will they just go away as you loose weight.. I've lost over 30 lbs and they are still there...

    Pushups are the key to that. If you consistently do your pushups at least once a week your "man boobs" will turn into pecs lol.

    I believe I just used MFP suggested calorie intake for the day but most days I would eat 1200 to 1400 calories at the time. I eat about 1400 to 1600 calories a day now.

    You look great!...how did you keep your focus and motivation?

    One thing that kept me inspired was seeing how much I lost weekly on my weight chart I wrote out and pinned to my wall in my room. I also put a bunch of inspiration quotes on my wall right in front of my when I would wake up every morning!. I would read them and that gave me lots of motivation as well. Also music kept me going!!!. I always worked out and ran with music!.

    Thanks for the advice on the weight loss chart I'm sure it really helps with motivation and keeping you on track. Also it's easy to get discouraged when you have a week with no weight loss and forget how far you have come. Seems like a great way to remind yourself of just how far you've come with your weight loss journey. You look Amazing!!!!!! Great Job :)

    I think it takes about 5 months for skin, etc to tighten up. After that, what you look like is probably how you are going to stay. I wonder if lifting would change the man boobs and tighten the fat into pecs of muscle???? Not sure since I am not a man. I would ask on some other forums where they experience with changing the body form due to weight lifting like on Bodybuilder.com. A lot of them are personal trainers, etc. Another option is to go to a spa where a plastic surgeon is connected (they estheticians are able to do more when they work under a doctor's license) and they can do a laser treatment (it usually takes about three treatments to get results) they would include something like "Veloshape" or "Skintyte" etc. They melt fat in isolated areas for issues such as what you described and also tighten the skin. It will help you grow collagen there naturally as well. I think treatments (at least in my area in Louisville, KY) are about $400 a treatment. So like I said you may need four treatments max to get results. Your skin will continue to tighten over time. You can Google and read. I know this sounds, "vain" but if they bother you, I would go for it. There is nothing better than feeling good in your own skin. Good luck!

    You look awesome!! I'm so jealous that you were able to run a 10k. Learning to run is definitely a goal of mine. Don't you feel so much better when you eat clean? I can hardly eat even a low cal meal at a restaurant now without feel stuffed and gross. Keep up the good work!
