Thank you! My life will never be the same and has changed for the better. I love what health and fitness and a little faith can do for a person... I have been blessed and now on a mission to help others see what's possible for them, especially the ones starting at rock bottom in every aspect, like I did..
Incredible Job! I am a Novice Lifter, but wanted to really focus on this and progress. Can you please list your Strength training Routine and the must have equipments at home along with appropriate weights?
Bravo again!!!!!!2 -

I am 33 years old and 5'3". I started this difficult journey in Jan of 2014 at 205lbs and I had JUST hit a size 20!!! In Dec 2014, I got down to a size 8 and around 135lbs! I feel great and am loving who I am becoming now! I'm learning a TON and meeting a lot of great people in the process.
I came across MFP in June of last year. I have kept a moderate calorie deficit pretty consistently (500 or so each day), with my carbs and protein around 100g each while lifting weights regularly (in my home with my own collected equipment), 5-6 times/week. I didn't do much cardio, as I don't enjoy it. I do run on occasion though. I feel empowered now and I absolutely LOVE strength training! Planning to take new progress pics at the end of June so I'm looking forward to that.
Best wishes to you all, anything is possible if you don't give up!

Hi! I just noticed that you did list your workouts above - Thanks again2 -
Wow what a transformation. You’re such an inspiration thank you for posting, it’s such an encouragement to me. I’ve been using 5kg weights and going to spin and body pump and have just started to notice a very gradual change with some more tone and definition but I’m desperate to really see a big change. Can I ask how long before you moved up in weights? I do 10-12 reps three sets of 6 exercises I’m starting to feel it’s getting a little easier so would like to try moving up. Thanks for any advice would be much appreciated x3
