    a_reyes9288, 16 pounds is awesome!

    no secrets here, just hard work i'm afraid.

    i avoid processed foods as much as possible, i cook most of what i eat now. low sodium, very low sugar, no processed sugars if i can help it. lean protien (egg-whites are my friend), water instead of diet soda. really all the stuff people say you need to do.

    for workouts i do at least 30 minutes every single day ... 30-day shred alternatng with cardio kickboxing, running/walking and of course weights! on rest days i do pilates.

    You look FANtastic! A true inspiration! I hope I see as much progress as you have in 2 months!! Cutting out processed sugar is hard-core, but OBVIOUSLY well-worth it. Great job, and keep it up! :happy:
