What does your last 20 pounds look like?

Bump! I'd also like to see this, since I'm also working on my last 20 pounds.

And Jamie, I have to ask - is Pretty your last name??

Interested in pics as well as i'm also working on my last 15-20.

Hi, ive lost 22 pounds and am getting to quite a happy stage with my weight now, i have pictures in my profile - feel free to add me. It has taken me almost 6 months to lose the weight. Best of luck to u all - u can do it, its worth it

same here -- last 17 to go , need to start toning...heaviest weight was 243, started MFP last august at 214 lbs, current weight 167..good job and congrats on your success

My profile pic is what my last 20 looks like. 20 more to go and I'll be where I'd like to be!

Hi! We have the same start weight

I've lost 20 lbs over the past year, yup, I was in the 150s last May and now I'm in the 130s. :happy: I'd like to lose another 5-10 lbs of fat but I'm trying to not care if that takes me another year

For the past year, I've been doing a 2-4 days per week of cardio and 3-4 days per week of lifting, and a couple days walking or hiking when the weather cooperates. I've been eating around 1700-2200 calories, averaging around 1900, for most of the past year.

Sorry I don't have any pics I feel comfortable sharing on here from my last 20 lbs.... I can tell you that I felt amazing in the 150s and I feel even more amazing in the 130s. Good luck. :flowerforyou:

Thank you, needed this! I'm in the 150s and feel awesome so im looking forward to feeling even MORE awesome

Sorry I can't share what you want but I have to say. Wow you look great! Super job. 90 lbs down is incredible. I still have almost 40 to go & have never taken pics so I can't share those. I started in Feb this time through & am down to my half way point ( 38.5 down)

Love this thread.. I'll post mine cause I really always aimed to just lose 20lbs. I've lost 17 in 5 months but the difference is obvious. Can't believe I used to be this big.. I am 5'6", 164lbs now. I focus mostly on getting in key macros (protein) as I lift heavy. Believe it or not, I now eat atleast 2000 cals a day.. strength training? Eat more to weigh less (and have less fat on your body).

I started with 30DS every day except a few here and there for two months, moved on to kettlebells/fitness classes at the Y. March, I started Stronglifts 5x5, now I still do Stronglifts 5x5 but have started Couch to 5K just so I can say I've accomplished something else I never thought I would (and great stress relief). I play soccer on the weekends at the YMCA and if my schedule allows during the week, I still do fitness classes at the Y. Hope that helps

Wearing a bathing suit for the first time in my life on May 19 (Day 139?) (164.5lbs, 21%BF):

I'm in the process of losing the last 20 pounds. I'm just wondering if you could share any photos you might have which show before-and-afters of your last 20ish pounds. I'd like to see what the difference might look like. Also, if you are willing to share any of your personal stats (height, weight, clothing size, gender, etc.) and the method in which you did it (cardio, diet only, weights, etc.) that would be wonderful.

Thanks, Jamie

I'm 5' 8", SW 277 pounds, CW 167, start clothing size was busting out of a 24 / 3X and current is a size 8 / 10, obviously I'm female :laugh: I did an old fashioned healthy weight loss. Healthy diet, cardio and lift heavy. I lost my weight in exactly one year all natural. I'm struggling with the last 15 pounds. Won't budge.

Profile pictures will show you before and afters

Dixiewhiskey~you've done great! Thanks for sharing. I think this is motivating. Seeing people lose that last 20 pounds or their only 20ish pounds shows me that it IS possible. I'm hoping that the last 20 pounds will make a great difference.

Thank you! I am glad you made this thread cause there is a lot of focus on losing 100's of lbs but not many on what amazing difference can be made just losing 15 or 20lbs! I know you will do great, keep on keeping on my dear!
