This is my second post. My first one didn't' work.


Hi Everyone!

I've been envious of people showing their success photos so I decided to celebrate my small success of losing 5 lbs by posting before and after shots. My starting weight is 123 lbs. I currently weigh a little less than 118 lbs. My goal weight is 2-3 pounds away. I wish my post will inspire those people that have only a few pounds to lose and just toning up. I noticed a significant amount of fat loss in my abdomen and in my legs. Not so much in the arms (that's my problem area :-( ). I'm a mesomorphic hourglass so I don't have skinny arms.

    Sorry its not that much of difference. I know some people can't probably tell the difference. I can though. Probably because I know my body more.

    Hi thank you! My abs are a slow progress. I've been working on them for a while. But the main thing that made them toned is doing planks (not sit-ups or crunches). I also lift weights using the support of my whole body so that strengthened my core.
