Hi everyone, I started my journey in 2014 at over 230 pounds I never thought I would lose enough weight to look 'as good' as my college days. Now, two years later, I can gladly say I'm weighing in at 172 (8 pounds lighter than my college days) and I'm not done yet. I've always wanted to have shredded abs, tight buns and soft curves but plateaus get in the way. I'm here to tell you all to keep working, keep pushing and you will keep thriving. No loose skin here just pure natural weight lost that lasts beyond fad diet crazes. Add me if you need help or, for when I'll need some. Keep up the hard work my lovelies and it will pay off.

    You have become my inspiration. I log in faithfully with NO RESULTS. This week switched to substitute fish as my protein. Not happy with no results, but I am committed to keep on until I see results. Thanks for the inspiration.

    Keep at it Wilma. When I first started working out I actually gained weight because I was building muscle faster then I was shedding that weight in fat. Maybe your routine needs tweaking or try lowering your carb intake. Let me know how it turns out.

    I got up to 270 before I realized I needed to change. Without working out and staying around 2000 calories I've been able to get under 240. Now the fun begins to see how I can really start making a difference working out. My end goal I think is somewhere around 190 since I have a bigger frame but we'll see.

    Keep up the great work humantic! You're almost half way there just try working out slowly and increase both time and intensity each day (even if it's just an extra two minutes or .5 incline or even just one extra set of crunches) a little goes a long way especially with workouts!

    Hi! I'm new, not sure how to add. I have 50 lbs to lose and I struggle with the nutrition portion. I have started and stopped this journey so many times. I am just ready to be done! Let's do this!
