    Yep!

    I started at 175 lbs with a goal weight of 140 lbs.. I'm now 120 lbs and still not happy b/c I've eneded up 'skinny-fat'.

    I lost all my weight through calorie deficit and cardio training but no strength training what so ever, now I'm smaller but still covered in a layer of fat lol

    I had lost a significant amount of weight about 8 years ago and initially to me, I could barely tell I lost anything (I went from an 170+ to 120lbs). Sometimes our brains just don't catch up with our bodies! I was going out shopping still looking at 18/20 shirts instead of the size 4 I was actually wearing.

    I'm 2lbs away from my goal, and my thighs and butt are fine now, but i still feel i need more work on my stomach, i've done a lot of strength training so kind of stuck for what to do :s

    Yep! Deffo got there! I got down to 9 and a half stone - which I NEVER thought I would get to but it was UGW! - and then I realised that I am not done. Im not trying to lose anymore weight, I am now gaining definition across my whole body and getting happier and happier each week with my progress :D
