Im kinda feeling the Cutandjacked website. Im starting to wonder if I could ever get my body to look like those fitness ladies...I've only wanted to lose enough weight to look good in my Vickies but now I would have to lose like 15lbs extra to look like them. New Goal, perhaps???

Anyone else change their goals throughout this process??? Its one thing to go from fat to healthy and another to go from fat to Cut and Jacked...Can it be done????

    I wasn't familiar with the site, so I just went and checked out a few things.

    It seems like a lift heavy site, so I like that (and I like the "shut up and squat" shirts!)

    I totally think it's possible. I started lifting at 196 lbs. I'm at 181.5 now. I don't know if I'll get really small, but I hope to be quite a bit tighter than I am now.

    I do StrongLifts 5x5 right now.

    There is no substitute for a good fitness trainer.

    Unfortunately, hiring 3 trainers in different states and different decades, I only found bad ones.

    I didn't look at it closely, just saw that on the "for women" pages it did talk about lifting heavy.

    What was bad?

    This was the one post that I read: http://cutandjacked.com/What-The-Woman-Starting-Out-Needs-To-Know-About-Training

    The only thing I didn't like was " Each body part should be trained once a week." Since I do full body 3x week, I kinda object to that authoritative statement.

    But most of the rest seemed ok. I mean, not top of the line, backed with scientific data, blow me away fantastic, but ok.

    Don't know about the website but there is no reason you can't change your goal.I haven't actually set one.I weighed 106 kgs when i started.So first go i set was to get out of triple digits.As for what weight i want to get to i have no idea.Have always been on the heavy side so not sure what is ideal.Also have had 4 c-sections so hoping i don't have to much lose skin.

    I feel your pain. I had to hunt for mine and now she is not taking on new clients but is instead authoring a book.
