pictures of women that were around 140 trying to get to 125

I have to agree with LorinalLynn - don't get hung up on the scale. It will cause so much stress and will actually hurt your results. The main thing to remember is that muscle weighs more than fat. When I was in the Army, I saw a nutrition and she asked me what I would like to get down to. I told her I was shooting for 145. She laughed at me. Not because it wasn't doable but because with my height, body frame and muscle mass, I would literally look sick and anorexic. A little meat on your bones is healthy. Now I did eventually get down to 145 but you could see my bones sticking out in certain picks. It is doable, but I think I would rather have the muscle then focus on the scale. Recently, I have been doing P90X. I was getting really disgusted because in the first 30 days it seemed like the scale never budged. I am posting the link to were I have been documenting my journey. Currently I am on Day 80 and only have 10 more days to go to finish the full 90 days. However, at Day 30 I had only lost 3.3 pounds (which you can see the results on Day 29 because that was my weigh in day. However, Day 30 is where the picture is. It is a big difference. Funny cause I didn't notice it until I took the picture. But, you would never guess I only lost 3.3 pounds!

lol, i did the ab ripper on p90x once and i felt paralyzed for like 3 days, hahaha i need to get some muscle though, its just so hard to get motivated to work out, bleehhhh

I would take your 145 in a heart beat.

for the love of God, muscle does NOT weigh more than fat. it takes up less space is all.

That's what "weighs more than" means in the comparative sense. Obviously one pound of muscle is going to weigh the same as one pound of fat. But given certain size parameters, 1 cu ft of muscle is heavier than 1 cu ft of fat.

Just like a pile of feathers weighs less than a pile of bowling balls, if the piles are of equal size.

Thanks ladies for all the posts! I seriously needed to read these today! I have been stuck at 135-137 for nearly a month. But I can tell my body is changing, the scale is just not moving! I am 5'5 and wanted to get to 120-125... but I am learning to focus more on Body Fat % and inches and forget the da#n scale! Good luck to you all!

i guess its time to find me a husband to buy me some too!!! hahahaha

Girl me too! I'm already barely a B, and they seem to be the first things to go. Damn it! I wish I could afford to buy some new ones myself cause honestly, that'd be motivation enough if I knew I'd actually get them! I want boobs sooo bad!

care credit: no interest for a year. most plastic surgeons offices use this. we pay like 250 a month. B(o)(o)M!
