    The bottom transformation was overall, going from 175-->117 with cardio, weights, and a deficit. The top ones are 117-->117 with maintenance calories and a big focus on lifting.

    So incredibly inspiring!! How long did you work at the overall loss, and the recomp?

    Man your recomp was phenomenal!! Really enhanced your shape! I was in a deficit lifting and made some great changes then changed my goals to a small bulk to try and grow a little more on the bottom. Your maintenance lifting certainly inspires me to consider stopping the mini bulk and seeing what can happen at my current weight with continuing my progressive lifting...

    I don't have great pictures of the difference in muscle tone, but here's a 4 month difference in my legs from strength training and cardioqzwq68rrt0j8.jpg

    This is one of the most impressive results from 4 months I have ever seen. Great work.

    Thanks!

    @cassandrarodriguez89, it's hard to tell a difference from your before with the sweater dress and you look like you started relatively lean, but I love the photoshoot and you look phenomenal! Especially for no photoshop. Cute skirt and you look great as a blond.

    I dont have any other pictures showing more skin because I hated being in a bikini, I had no abs so I was insecure

    Ok. Im not sure if this was covered or is a dumb question but I'll ask anyways. I'm in the obese category, 4'11 179lbs, so if i lift will that help me lose weight ore should i lose weight first and then tone up? Also should i consult a trainer at gym for this, bc never really lifted weights before as exercise.
