    I have dropped from 145lb to 93lb and then back up to 108lb. I'm 5'1.

    Here's my collage from about 6 months ago which shows me at my heaviest, and the bottom row shows progress pics down to 98lbs.

    Since then I gained a lot of muscle.
    Two weeks ago at 108lbs:

    Still a work in progress but you get the idea. This morning I discovered a 2 pack on my stomach.

    WOW! You look amazing! I know everyone's body is different and no two plans will work the same for everyone, but what did you do to look this awesome in 6 months!?

    Bump!!
  • Finally got some input on how to post pics..I'm in.

    I've lost about 40 lbs over the past 1 1/2 yrs, 30 of that being within this past year. I went from 12s being very snug to a comfortable size 4, even a possible 2 when the clothing is vanity sized. :)

    I'm 26, 5'1 and 2 kids
    Fat my whole life.
    Went from 200.5 to 185 and then got down to 146.
    I was in a 17/18 and now I wear a 9/10
    I carry my weight in my mid area - tummy, hips, and butt.
    I currently weigh 149 lbs and trying to get to 132 lbs, which is considered healthy :-)
    I run and eat clean.

    Posting to bookmark, don't have much to show yet. I'm going to take a before pic tomorrow and another each 10lbs or stone :)

    5'1"
    SW 191
    CW 184
    GW 140 ish

    I'll see how I feel re final GW as I get smaller, I'm a top heavy, big hipped kinda girl and want to build muscle as I go so 140 is my current goal. I weighed somewhere between 91 - 98lbs pre children and looked emaciated, it really didn't suit my figure.

    Here you go! I'm 5'0 and was 175 after I had my son- I immediately went down to 158, and lost another 6 lbs in a month from diet and exercise. After that I sat at 150 lbs for about 6 months. It was quite disheartening. I tweaked my diet, changed my workouts and pretty soon it started melting off. I want to tone up quite a bit, but I must say, thus far I'm pretty happy with the results.

  • I *love* that dress you're wearing in the last pic. You look fantastic, and the dress is *gorgeous* on you!

    ditto. White House Black Market?

    Those are my pics :)
    It's great to see pics of people around my height, it helps motivate me
  • how did you do this!?! you look amazing! I am 4' 11" and I wouldn't consider myself "fat" but I am not in the shape I want to be..

    I would probably kill to look like you though!! I struggle the most with my diet I think.. What kind of food do/ did you eat? or what was your time frame? and work out method!? haha sorry i have so many questions but I am SO jealous!!

    I have dropped from 145lb to 93lb and then back up to 108lb. I'm 5'1.

    Any of you short people like myself just starting your weight loss journey and want to add me as a friend? We can help motivate each other and share our progress.
