    Congratulations! I hope I can do the same for myself.

    You look great! Well done! Your hard efforts really paid off! I'm a shortie too. 5'1" with a much higher SW than yours and your pictures/story were so inspiring. Thanks for sharing!

    Great job! I've been tossing the idea of lifting heavy and I'm picking up NLRFW to peruse while I finish up Insanity! Amazing how 12 lbs loss doesn't seem like much compared to others, but on us shorties, it's a big difference!

    Congrats!

    Yeahhhhh do it! Facebook also has a great active support group of ladies doing NROLFW and they'll answer any of your questions, post vids of the workouts since sometimes the static pictures in the book isn't 100% clear, and they are so inspiring. :love:

    have you looked into New Rules of Lifting for Women? They also have a lil program in there to help you with developing your pushups! Basically don't start with the knees, just do em at an angle like on a bar or bench in the weight room and move progressively towards the floor. Also, something that help me with pushups was YOGA! :love: All of those Downward Dog to plank to upwardfacing dog -> basically a yoga pushup!

    The scale definitely is not always the best measuring tool.

    You look great! Congrats and keep up the great work!

    You look awesome!!! I will start lifting more weight soon. I love yoga and have been doing it in the past but kind of stop. Will go back soon but definitely will add some weight training in. Great inspiring post! :)
