Hello people who care about your bodies! I have lost a total of 24 pounds and I am now at 112. I'm 5'2. I have a couple inches to lose from the middle and then I'm looking for a nice toned body. With actual muscles! I'm really excited to finally reach my "Les Mills Combat" body this year. Anyone else??

    Have you been lifting all along since you started losing fat?

    Good you started lifting. Tone might not be the word you're looking for. It's not really a "thing". Do you want to gain muscle?

    Yes I want more muscle and less fat. I just read about how "toning" isn't really a fitness word. I just meant I want muscles to show and I want them to grow. Not like crazy but I'm not afraid to look like I am strong.

    Not when the thread is this small. Okay, so you read about that. Now you say you want your muscles to grow, to gain muscle. At 112, what is your height? Your can only gain muscle mass in a calorie surplus. Seems like you don't really want to drop any more weight.

    Im short...5'2. All the fat centers in the middle. I want to drop a couple more inches off my waist, so that's dropping fat. I would say probably another 4 pounds. But the actual weight isn't that important to me, it's how i ultimately look. Idc if by the end Im 120, as long as i achieve the look I want.
