I want to see your butt

I thought that title would get your attention.

I have a very small butt. And I'm obese. I'm wondering if anyone else has lost 50+ pounds and transformed your butt? I would love to see before and after pictures and hear how you did it.

I want to focus on building my bytt muscles and losing this weight.

    Ill figure out how to post a photo! Ive lost 86 pounds with 30ish to go. My butt is fabulous! My butt was a little flat before, and now it has a great round look
    I do crossfit and eat at a smaller deficit.

    Thank you for posting pictures. I have so much to lose and don't always want to be a pancake butt ( like i am now) so this definitely gives me hope

    Can I ask you all who have seen progress with lifting. Did you have to go on calorie surplus? Thanks

    I was eating around maintenance and trying for body recomp during the time between my photos.

    When I started back at it, I was (unintentionally) eating in a surplus. However, I was still able to make progress while in a moderate deficit.

    At this point I am still in a deficit because I still have some pounds that I want to drop 🙂 But it’s only a 250 calorie deficit so the loss is slower and my strength isn’t compromised. When I get to a weight I like I’ll start bulking/cutting for better definition!

    These are a little old(both from 2016....May vs Sept). First pic is after losing over 120lbs. Second pick is a few months after starting Strong Curves.

    This is really impressive! Well done, @shadow2soul.

    @quiksylver296 Thanks :) I was actually really surprised by how much improvement I saw with the program. Everyone always says squats, but for me I needed more than just squats to actually get some shape there.

    Your before/after photos are really good. I've never seen progress photos that were that noticeable after just a few months

    Can I just ask - why do you want a bigger bum? I can remember in my late teens-early twenties (after that, i didn't care!) that you'd ask "Does my bum look big in this?" hoping for a big fat "Nooooo!" Now it seems that that's all anybody wants.
    That's in no way meant as a critism, you do what's good for you, I'm just interested 👍😊

    For me it was more about creating shape not necessarily size. After weight loss mine was flat and saggy looking. Though I admit in my quest for shape I added a bit of size to my thighs and backside, but I think I look better with the added shape and size than I did without.

    With Kim Kardashian and Beyonce and J-Lo, etc. it's come back "in style" to have a big butt. Which I think it's ridiculous that a certain body type can be "In style" but that's just me.

    I'm positive my opinion doesn't matter in this regard as I can't speak on behalf of all the men on the planet, but I think it's safe to assume for most this new trend is not attractive at all.
