Hi, i lost 23llbs, im 5" 2inches i have gone from 140 to 117 in 4 months

curious to find out how you managed to loose 23lbs in 4 months I am 5'3 and currently weight 146

Well, i did 30DS, loads of oother "home" dovds, as i dont have the time and money for the gym, ate 1200 cal deficit, walked to work and back everyday, which is 5 miles a day in total, come rain or shine. the last 2 weeks i gave up bread, pasta, potatoes and rice too, a was extremely motivated and determined. I stragely have really enjoyed the whole process, even giving up my favourite foods and cutting back a lot on alcohol! good luck x

great work all you! i'm also a shorty & in the process of losing weight.

WOW!
Would you guys post a day in the life of your foods and exericise routine? It would be awesome to see what you eat and do for work outs that brought all of you to where you are now!!! What incredible results!!!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!!!

My primary focus was diet! On days that I did exercise I would do a tae bo routine, swim laps, or run a mile. I enjoy exercises that are disguised as something fun like outdoor activities & sports lol. I also did a couple dance-related exercises (zumba, core rhythms, etc.), all at home.

My daily intake was 1200cal, & no eating of exercise calories since my workouts weren't habitual. I ate low carb (35%)/low fat (30%)/low sodium (1500mg)/ low sugar/ high protein (35%)/ high fiber foods and limited alcohol.


B-fast- 1/2 cup FAGE 0% Greek yogurt w/ fresh blueberries & strawberries w/ a tbsp. low-fat granola (or) Pure Protein Bar (or) low sugar instant oeatmeal packet (or) 1 packet instant grits, w/ a cup of coffee & skim milk, no sugar

Snack- 100cal snack: either pre-portioned package (or) 100cals worth of fruit/veg/fat free air-popped popcorn w/ a cup of coffee & tbsp. skim milk, no sugar

Lunch- Salad w/ grilled chicken, light evoo & vinegar, (or) Healthy Choice Cafe Steamer, (or) leftovers from dinner

Snack- 100cal snack: either pre-portioned package (or) 100cals worth of fruit/veg/fat free air-popped popcorn w/ a cup of coffee & tsbp. skim milk, no sugar

Dinner- Grilled 4-8oz portion of chicken breast/salmon/lean beef/shrimp w/ side of steamed asparagus/bok choy/spinach/swiss chard/rapini/mustard greens/zucchinni/portabella mushrooms with diced fresh garlic & tsp. of evoo (or) Healthy Choice Cafe Steamer

Snack- 100 cal snack (or) Smart Ones Desserts for a treat w/ a cup of coffee & tbsp. skim milk, no sugar

everyone looks so great!

Why is my best pic the smallest? Ha ha ha!

I have my "off" days but for the most part I try to eat 1500-1800 calories a day of (mostly) nutritious food. I workout 5 times a week doing Crossfit and weight training in the gym, cardio is only what is during my Crossfit workouts and a couple times a week I do HIIT (15 min) which is mainly running/sprinting/walking. If I can't make it to the gym once a week or so I'll do a good video with weights. The biggest thing I do is pretty much always track, even when I eat crap. It "keeps it real".

I lost all of my initial weight (125 down to 105 pounds) in 4 months of strict diet and exercise (an hour to an hour and a half a day), but it took another good year or two of pushing myself to the max to really see strength and muscle gains and drop body fat.

I'm 5'1 myself and I find all these pictures extremely inspiring!!! A Thank you for sharing and hopefully I'll be able to share my own pictures sometime soon! At my heaviest, I was around 210 lbs. I am now 163. I avoided the camera so there aren't many of me around, but I will definitely post some when I'm done my journey. My goal is about 125 lbs, so I have quite a ways to go!

Wow! You guys all look great! This thread is completely inspiring I'm new here so no before/after photos yet. I'm 5'1 but don't own a scale yet so going from my last known weight:

CW 161 and goal is to get down to at least the 130-140 by the end of the year
Overall goals to get to 115-120 which is including muscle weight gain that I expect to have.

I'm 5'3 1/2" and started out at 125 pounds. I was down to 100-102 pounds at one point but gained muscle and went up to 108-110 which is where I am now.



Between 108-110 pounds:

Wow!!!!! Fantastic job!

I love this thread! I am 5'2 and working for 120 as my first goal. My SW was 147lbs. You ladies inspire me!
