Before and After pics NO STARVATION

BUMP, BUMP BUMP!!! You go!!!! What did you do? I have been doing TurboFire and am loosing steady weight.. My husband has been cutting back and looking for inspiration? Again, What did YOU do?

I didn't really do any proper "before" pictures, which I'm really regretting now, and being a photographer, I have a sixth sense as to when I know someone's taking ones near me, and always avoid getting in shot as best as I can.

I have a couple from last year though, and you get a good idea where I started from with them.

3 stone in 4 months - usually batting around the 1500-1800 area, with a few miles walking every day.

November 2011




March 2012 (I can see a difference, the photos are deliberately identically posed (see below!)



"Passport" pics (I took one of these today, and one around November)



and finally... if this works, it should animate....

How long did it take u to loose the 50lbs and what did u do? was it just counting calories or what? but u look great nice job with ur weight loss

Saving for inspiration

love this site....just upped my calories from 1200 to 1400! I was getting made because I kept eating a little over and not making my calorie goal! Nice to know I can do that without feeling guilty now...LOL...who needs all that excess guilt!

how do u up you calories? i cant hange it on my profile. i want to up mine but i dont know how. if i eat more than my page says it looks like im going over my daily limit:(

Go to the "MY HOME" tab. Under it you will see a tab that says "Goals". On that page there is a button that say "Change Goals" Click it and then select the "Custom" Option. On that page you be able to adjust your calories and your other macros.

thanks so much.i feel like 1300 is not enough cals and im starving. if i up them and work out. if i need to eventually i can lower my calries but right now i feel so hungry lol.

I refuse to EVER diet again!

All through healthy dieting and exercising! It takes time but every minute is totally worth it!

Amazing work. You should be very proud. Everyone on this thread is very inspiring.

^^^^^ This. I completely agree... people on here are completely inspirational and if I am having a tough day I look at these pictures over and again to gain a bit of strength from your success.

Started losing weight on June 23rd, 2011. Didn't officially join MFP until July. I never eat below 1600 and my days can range anywhere from 1600-3000+ calories. I run 2-3 days a week and I do not stress about the scale. My last 10-12 pounds can come off whenever. Not stressing I eat whatever I want. :happy:

This is just a picture I want to share that I put together yesterday...this is only a 2 week and a couple pounds of a difference, but I lost a significant amount of my love handles! I have been doing more core and ab work and I think that's helped it quite a bit!

you look great for just a few pounds! i carry a lot og my weight in that area so what workouts did u do?thanks!

I eat 6 times and day for a total of 1500 to 2000 calories. I even eat right before bed. Madness I say!

125 lbs 5' tall


200 lbs 5' tall

Bump- Thank you everyone for inspiring me!

I started at 220lb and am now 200lb. I'm 5' 7". I cant see the difference yet.
