I've been lifting for about three months. I told my trainer I wanted arms like his, but smaller...lol. Here is a link to a photo I took last week...

Some cardio will help with losing body fat but it doesn't have to be a lot. 15 minutes HIIT training after lifting and a brisk walk 20-30 minutes on non-lifting days.0

I can't walk too fast due to a sprained ankle, but is it okay if I bike for HIIT and off days?Some cardio will help with losing body fat but it doesn't have to be a lot. 15 minutes HIIT training after lifting and a brisk walk 20-30 minutes on non-lifting days.0 -
I'm actually about 4 pounds heavier in the last picture than the first. This is about 10 months of lifting altogether, NROL4W then NROL Supercharged.
I'm a natural brunette (ash brown) and I have been hilighting my hair for Life it seems. Your pic of the dark brown hair has inspired me, I think I'm going to go to a similar color. Oh and the transformation is a given inspiration.0 -

In progress, looking to build more lean mass and drop body fat.

Take photos. It's the only way I see any progress at all.
I'm currently a little heavier and shedding a few extra pounds I picked up over the winter and spring, but here's what I looked like before any lifting, after weight machines for a year, and after 4 months of using free weights.
And here's after 2 years of lifting and gaining 13 pounds. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/1020429-gained-13-pounds-since-lifting-scary-not-really0 -

Sure, biking is great for HIIT.0 -
3.5 weeks of lifting 3x/week with very little cardio (and the fun kind - sports, dance games on the xbox).
The lifting actually "lifted" my entire stomach.0 -

I don't really have before pictures of my heaviest, because I didn't intend to stay at that weight... But here are the results of starting a cut (TDEE-20%) after two weeks: (And for some reason AFTER is on the left and BEFORE is on the right. It made sense at the time... :P)

Over 3 months of eating at TDEE and lifting and then 2 weeks of cutting at TDEE -20%, I dropped from 27.7 to 22.3% body fat... And only lost two total pounds...
Most of the muscle mass I put on seems to have been in the replacement of my bingo-wings with actual triceps and delts.
