Post your before and afters! I'll go first!!

Got a long journey ahead. I can feel abs now, Just need to lose that flab as well as my massive lunch lady arms which seem to not budge.

Wow you can do so many ninja things now!

I didn't take pics before I started but I weighed 194 In January 2014 and that isn't even my heaviest. I used to weigh 210. I have taken a few pictures in between and I plan on keeping up with the pics to show my progress! I still have about 30 pounds left to go before I reach my goal but I wanted to post what my progress is now.

I'm all nervous to even post these, I am so conflicted between pride and shame!
I have more (non-blurry) before and afters here, from when I officially started my fitness journey: http://livingdomesticallyimpaired.blogspot.com/p/about-me.html
...and I thought those were pretty good until I found this horrendous picture of myself from a hiking trip a full year before I started being really serious about losing weight. Compare to the before pictures in that link and you will see! I've lost waaaaaay more than I realized.

Before: Around November 2012, 5' 5.5" tall, weight unknown, but I don't even wanna guess.
After: Hiking this past weekend, in some pants that were too snug at my previous weight! Currently 129 lbs on a good day.


These pics are blurry, but I think we can see it's time to just retire those pants.


Never thought I'd have the confidence (or the hip circumference) to wear something like this!

Hi.
I am doing workout 4 times a week and after each session during fat reduction period I was doing 30 minutes on cross trainer (including HIIT for 10 mins). All the exercises I do at home because I work at night and during the day I spend time with my child.
All my life I was obese and finally saw the results since I started count calories. I bought kitchen scale July last year.
I found some calories calculator on website and calculate my daily calories to maintain the weight. I deduct around 600-800 calories just to get deficit.

I am using diet ''IF IT FIT YOUR MACROS''.
I eat everything and recording all macros. Clean and Dirty Food.
As long as it fit my balance, weight goes down without any problems.

During Fat reduction I kept macros :
-Protein: 30%
-Carbs: 50%
-Fat: 20%

Since I started mass bulk period I added around 800 calories and now my weight is going up very slowly.
My diet and training looks exactly the same. I just don't do cardio now.
At this moment I am on 4300 calories/day. I don't mind whether it's a training day or not.

Mass Gain period macros balance:
-Protein: 25%
-Carbs: 55%
-Fat: 20%

First 6 photos Fat Reduction -30kg in 7 months (from July 2013 to January 2014)
Last 2 photos Mass Gain +5kg in 5 months (from February 2014 to May 2014)

Before: Jan 1 2014 @ 162lbs ( 5'2")

After: June 15th 2014 @ 128lbs

Followed daily calorie intake of 1200 cal 4-5 days a week
Only water and diet soda ( for a treat )
Did not eat after 7pm
Mostly ate my carbs in the morning and no later than 2pm
Walked 25-30 min a day
Started tracking my steps of 1000 a day

Pm me if you have any questions

^ You look like someone I know. Impressive!

Still a work in progress

Amazing!! Can I ask how long it took you to achieve this?

Fitter.Stronger.Better.Faster.
