This is after a little less than 3 months of weight training 5 times a week starting last July. I'm 2 lbs lighter now than on the last picture. Still a work in progress, but I'm so glad I said goodbye to the 150s! Also, I was on a plateau for about 3 weeks between pic 2 and 3 but I still lost inches!! I'm wearing the same shirt on pic 1 and 4. It's wrinkled on me now! I'm 5'1.5.

    Awesome!! I'm 5'3" (on the "tall" end of the petite spectrum) and I KNOW what a difference 5-10lbs can make!

    Wonderful results!.
    I''m off now to look for something heavy to lift because the BEST results seem to be from that.

    Cardio is a great jumping off spot but based on the success threads I've read here, lifting really gives the changes we want to see in our bodies.

    I still do some cardio -about 20 minutes 5 times a week-, but weight lifting is definitely the focus!

    I'm glad I was able to inspire you! Extra weight really makes us look BIG but the good thing is results can be seen faster at our height, IMO. Good luck on your journey!
