    You look incredible! Congratulations on your success. Weight lifting doesn't have to mean large, bulky muscles but always means strength and tight and toned muscles. Glad you're seeing success and being happy about it!

    Very cool transformation, thanks for sharing! I lift weights a couple times a week, but I have no rhyme or reason to what I do...I really don't know WHAT I'm doing, I only know I'm supposed to weight train to increase my transformation/weight loss/decrease my body fat. I really want to start doing it right, but I'm so confused, I don't even know where to start! Maybe I'll buy this book you mention that I keep hearing about.

    You have really inspired me! The difference in your shape in just the last two months is impressive. Congratulations!!!

    I've never done strength training, and I got ticked off at my doctor when she said I needed to. I've slowing been warming up to the idea, but have no idea where to start, except for maybe my husband's old dusty bowflex out in the garage....I'll have to stop hanging my laundry on it! Thanks for the inspiration.

    I was in the same boat..I wanted to start but had no idea where to begin. New Rules is a good program, but it is still hard to start, because you have to studies the pictures and figure out what the heck you're doing. That said though, once you get the hang of the different moves, you can kinda feel when you're doing it right (or not!).

    Your body shape and initial measurements are very close to mine (though I weighed around 140 lbs when I started)....I have lighter bones I guess :)

    I am also doing NROL and am noticing changes in the shape now with practically negligible weight loss (though I would like it to move a little). I have lost inches and have seen the biggest transformation in the last month or so.

    You look great and much tighter and toned compared to your Feb pics and MORE food and MORE strength training is the trick to it :)

    Keep it up.

    Thanks for the encouragement! I'll look up the book in the library. I started doing some ballet barre work I remembered doing as a kid after reading your post. The kitchen counter made a good bar, and I have to say it felt really good to challenge my muscles again!

    Great job! Thanks for sharing that info. I have been lifting heavy for about 2 weeks now. I'd be very excited to see my belly tighten up like yours!

    Great job! I just look forward to the day when I can stand on the toilet like that and not have to worry about it crashing to pieces :) (Not that I sit around and daydream about standing on toilets... but you get the idea. lol)

    Awesome pics. Keep up the good work. :)
