40lbs lost so far! Pics!

emfilomena · February 2012

Hello! My name's Emily and I thought I'd post my success thus far. I'm only 5'1, with a medium frame, so being at the weight of 160-170lbs wasn't acceptable or very flattering for my body, in my personal opinion. I've since then lost 40lbs, but unfortunately only have photos about 30lbs ago..

The difference in my face is amazing, and my arms as well! Lifting weights hasn't bulked me up, but slimmed me down (along with tons of cardio, of course).

Before (roughly 154lbs) Talk about a bad hair-dye job, aha!:

During (145lbs):

During (132lbs):

And a few days ago (125lbs):

Along with a face shot (125lbs):

I'm not fully comfortable or happy with my body yet, and am aiming for at least another 15lbs of weight loss. I do focus a lot on fitness, and I've developed a love for running!

I am amazed at my results thus far and can't wait until I start seeing more ab definition
