edited September 2024 in Success Stories
I took a health class for my college gen. ed., and I took a survey/quiz about my drinking... turns out I drank about 3,000 calories a week on alcoholic beverages alone. After this, I decided I needed to change my lifestyle. I've always been VERY active. In high school I was an all state athlete, and even on the off season, I worked out. Even at my biggest I was going to the gym 3+ times a week. My diet was GARBAGE tho, so I cleaned it up a little and dropped around 27 pounds and 4 inches off my waist & 5.5 off my hips.


Today when working out, I was doing jump squats and felt my thigh muscle-- it was hard as a rock, and I did not have any fat shaking on my thighs for once in my life, so I decided I am done trying to lose weight! ha I don't have much fat left to lose, so I'm going to stop before it gets out of control ;)

**THERE IS NO QUICK FIX** I HAVE TO SECRETS FOR YOU; JUST HARD WORK & PERSERVERENCE*



I'm 5 7.25


Before:
158 LBS
27% BODY FAT
39-29-40

(yup.. I ate that whole thing by myself and a whole pizza too-- no biggy ha)

    Maybe you mentioned it in your post but how long did it take you? Did you take any supplements? What was your diet?

    Sorry, I know I'm drilling you, but I'm about 141 looking to get to 118(ish).

    I started MFP at 145, and it took me 2 months to lose 15 pounds. The 158-145 I was not really trying to lose but it took about 3 months. I did not take supplements regularly, and my diet was just whatever I wanted staying in my goal

    Wow! You look fabulous!
    I'm a tad inspired as I'm the same height and wasn't sure what would be a healthy weight for me. I know I can aim lower than I was. :happy:

    Also, thanks for the link to Bodyrock. I will be using and abusing that site!
