my original goal of 165 has been within my grasp for awhile.

I have tried to go really slow with the last bit of weight. I plan to lose the next 2 pounds over atleast a month.

I am focused on building muscle and getting rid of my belly.


My girlfriend recently told me I was sexy! Haha, so awesome. We only recently met so she never knew me when I was 40+ pounds heavier.

But then last night she mentioned I still have a little belly (which she thinks is cute) but damn, now I wanna get rid of it!

So I am more focused on fat burning instead of just straight weight loss.

    Way to go! Don't forget, if you gain some muscle, you will actually gain weight because it weighs more than fat. You should measure yourself so you know you are getting muscle and not gaining weight back. My boyfriend had an issue with this and was very frustrated because he thought he was gaining weight back, but it was just muscle mass!

    yeah I have taken waist and hip measurements and I know that even though I havent been losing weight I have definitely gotten more toned. Everytime I move a hole on my belt I can tell haha.

    Thanks!

    you are so close to your goal! Can't wait til I am that close... still kicking myself for gaining the weight back that I initially lost years ago. Good advice on the measurements. I need to do that myself!
