So in the past I've lost weight by doing tons of cardio and restricting my calories. This time around I've been eating whole foods, strength training, and doing some cardio. I feel totally different and I'm excited with the visable changes in my body. Just wanted to share this pic. The top pic was about 12 weeks ago, about a month into my weight loss journey. The bottom one was yesterday. I've lost almost 30 lbs now and I'm feeling great.

    I found this from an old post. Maybe it will help




    How do I resize the picture to make it fit?


    Go to wherever you have it hosted (photobucket, tinypic, etc.) The site will have a "resizing" option. Pick the size around 400 X 600 and once you do that, the picture will automagically resize itself here.

    That's a big difference! What kind of strength training do you do?

    I do a full body strength training routine at the gym. I alternate days between upper body, lower body, abs, and full body. I cahnge my routine every month so my body doesn't get used to the same thing. I also started carb cycling the past couple week and I feel like it has really helped me.

    I've found that following what body builders/fitness competitors do can lead to great success. I'm working hard to keep my muscle up so that it can keep burning fat.
