Here is my starting point from last spring/summer... I'm on the right - it is so hard to look at these. And I thought I could hide it with clothes!!! hahaha yeah right.

SW: 195
CW: 162
Body fat dropped 8%...
GW: 140... ish.... 20% body fat - I wanna look ripped!

    Thank you all so much! I hadn't really noticed that big of a difference until I saw the dreaded PICTURES! It is definitely a journey and someone who I have known for a month commented that I looked thinner (this month I have upped my work outs at 90-120 minutes per day) and her comment made me so happy! And yesterday my friend told me I looked like I weighed way less than 162 which was very nice to hear! I haven't been able to break 160 and by the end of the month I will!

    It's funny, I haven't really felt like I accomplished that much but a couple of comments goes a really long way! This site is AWESOME and really helps fine tune calories in and calories out. I think if I keep following the guidelines and amping up my work outs I'll be able to drop the rest of the weight in another 6 months!!! This forum really helps keep me in check and answer any questions, so thank you!

    Props to YOU!!! Seriously you LOOK AWESOME!! I think its even more fabulous that you lost it in a sensible and healthy time frame!! I think we all get caught up and in such a rush to lose weight quickly but its soo unhealthy and unrealistic...You seriously have given me encouragement and hope that I can also do it!! I am also 5'6 and my goal is 160 lbs. but i would love to go to 150 lbs. of course i have had a baby soo things are probly a lil bit more flabby and harder for me to get toned but I gotta push through! Anyways best of luck on ur journey and congrats on ur succes thus far!! It really shows and you look great!:wink:

    You look fabulous well done :) How tall are you? You started close to where i started from (but looked MUCH better for it) and your goal is set to the same as mine.

    It's ok i just saw someone else post that you're 5'6" (4" taller than me :frown: )
