+75 lbs lost! From huge tummy to flat abs!

Posts: 124 Member
Even tho my weight loss sticker reflects a smaller number, I have lost over 75 lbs. I lost some weight before joining MFP, so I already kinda miss those extra lbs/kgs. Hahaha.
Anyway, I was a big girl with a *big* tummy. Rolls and rolls of fat everywhere. I was severely obese and even when I was focused on losing weight I never expected to really get a fit body. I always thought I would manage to be thin, but flabby. So, for all the girls (and boys) out there who need some encouragement, IT CAN BE DONE! It will take a lot of work, but here I am, 10 months later feeling awesome!

Awkward-in-front-of-a-camera me is quite proud of the results:
One more proof of the progress. These jeans barely zipped up when I started my weight loss journey (sorry for the bad quality):
It's crazy how much your body can change when you eat clean (with the occasional treat) and work out on badass mode.

BTW! I just started to use the social side of the website again after months, and I find myself a little friend-lacky. If anyone wants to add me, please do so. I would love to have people to talk with and help each other! I'm a friendly person and always happy to make new friends.

you are welcome to friend me . u r an inspiration to all of us0 -

I tend to change my routines a lot to not get used to anything and have fun. But I'm pretty much a believer of HIIT routines of any kind. I swear by them. Interval jogging too.
That and some of my fav work outs are: 30 Days Shred, Yoga Meltdown, jogging, 15 mins of an android app called "abs daily work out", pilates videos, and anything with Jillian Michael in it really. I worship that woman and her videos.
I have never put a foot in a gym. I work out at home, so I don't know if this helps much.0 -
You look great!. Can you give us details how you achieved it? If you can include height/weight, etc. Many newbies in particular love the details as an initial guide, before they acclimate.0

wow. you give us all hope.way to go.

Oh, yes, of course!! I didn't think of that since I posted a more complete success story before. But I'm going to add my data to the photo post so everyone can see it without digging in the replies.
Thanks for the suggestion! 0 -

Oops! Forgot the work out part, hahaha. Such a goldfish.
As I always say when people ask me that, I change my routines A LOT. I love experimenting with new work out videos, new routines, and whatnot. So, I can't say I have a regular schedule. That, and I had to adapt my routines to my body adapting to them, if that makes sense. What was such a challenge at first is now nothing but a warm up. So I tend to up the intensity when I start to get comfortable.
I started with low intensity cardio such as: walking 3 miles a day plus 5 mins of abs and 5 mins of arms work outs. Then walking plus 30 Days Shred level 1. Then made the walk 5 miles plush 30 DS. Then kept adding strength training to that.
When I was more fit and needed something my challenging I started with interval jogging. 20 mins of walking, 5 mins of jogging, and slowly making the walking parts shorter and the running ones longer. That plus going for 30 Days Shred level 2 and 3. I tried and loved Jillian Michael's Yoga Meltdown. And discovered the wonders of HIIT routines from youtube.
Right now I'm doing a HIIT routine in the morning, then some cardio plus strength training in the evening. I try to go for 40-50 mins a day. I believe in shorter work outs but more intense better than spending hours doing low intensity ones. But that's mostly a personal preference because it has worked out better for me and my weight loss/toning.
Sorry if this doesn't help much. But I really don't have *specific* daily routines other than trying to work out for at least 40-50 mins a day (minus rest day).0 -

Thank you so much. That has been very helpful.0 -
Wow! Incredible results. i started out heavier than you at 260 pounds (before mfp) and have lost 30 from heavy lifting and tracking. My goal is to get to where you are now though I am shorter and larger framed. It is so encouraging to see results like yours and to know it is possible. You're lovely! Thanks for the inspiration.0
