    Great job : ) your aiming for the same goal weight as me : ) how tall are you?

    I'm 5'4". I will be happy when I have a flat stomach, though. Not sure yet at which weight that will be! Might even be a little lower than 120 because I carry my weight around my stomach. Oh, and my boobs. That must have been a genetic mutation; all the other women in my family are B cup or below. Thankfully I've gone from a 36DD to a 34D - cute bras, here I come!!

    i'm 5'4 as well (158 lbs right now) and carry my weight in my tummy too! i hate it!!! :grumble: wish some of it would go to my boobs or really anywhere else! lol oh well :ohwell: regardless of whether or not you still think u have a tummy, i can't tell from the pics & i think u look teeny tiny! :smile:

    Aw, thanks, that's very sweet of you. To be honest, that picture makes me look a little better than I am right now - I'm still too scared to post a sports-bra-and-shorts photo! I've still got another 13 pounds to go and I want to tighten up too. Then hopefully I can.

    17lbs has made a huge difference on you! congrats!
  • Hi guys! I've had a lot of people message me and ask what I did to lose the weight, so I'm just going to write it on here.

    The biggest thing that helped me was portion control. I just cut what I normally eat into half or even just eat a third. Instead of a whole dessert, I eat one or two bites. Limiting what you eat is far more effective than trying to work it off later with exercise. In fact, I would avoid the thinking that 'I can have this muffin because I'm going to work out later tonight' altogether. It does take a long time and results don't always show right away, which can be discouraging. But just keep at it. Once you start to see a bit of weight loss, it's really motivating and somehow easier to keep going if that makes sense.
  • Wow that is amazing! Such a big difference! You look good :)
