    I almost forgot, I've been using Palmers firming butter twice a day for about 2 weeks now and I can actually see a big difference on the stretch marks. They are more faded and smoothed out. Definitely recommend it and it's pretty cheap!

    You look AMAZING! What is your strength & ab training routine like?

    Thanks! I've been lifting 3 times a week. I only have 56lbs worth of weights at home so that's what I've gotten up to, joining a gym this week though and thinking about changing my routine to Stronglifts 5x5 once there. Currently doing-

    Deadlift 5x5
    Squat 5x5
    Military press 5x5
    Chest press 5x5
    Barbell row 5x5
    Barbell shrug 5x5
    Dumbell chest flies 5x5

    On my non lifting days I do a 15 min ab workout that is on youtube and The Butt Bible Lower body but I have only been doing Butt bible for a week.

    First of all, well done! You can really see a difference in just one month! I can't wait to see what you look like in another month. :)

    Second, thank you so much for posting this. I'm dealing with information overload at the moment, scouring the internet for a good routine to get me started. There's just so much to take in along with conflicting information!

    Thank you :-)

    I was overwhelmed also when I was looking to start out. I kept asking Q's and researching but had no idea which way to go regarding reps and sets. 5x5 kept popping up so I stuck with that and I knew Deadlifts and squats were the most important so I did them and picked more exercises that seemed to work most of the muscles from the sheet that came with my weights and just stuck with that!

    I did the 30 day shred last summer which helped with my stomach loads! Lowering my carbs to around 100g a day and upping my protein really reduced the bloating so nutrition is definitely something to consider along with the exercise :-)

    awesome, thanks for sharing your sucess, you look great
