Hey you DO look AMAZING! well done you, what an achievement. Be proud.... very inspiring....:drinker:

thank you! I've got to start believing it too! :flowerforyou:

haaha me too! just written it down!

forgot to add that i'm 5ft5 and 140 pounds, stuck at that weight for couple of months....was originally 154 but that's taken a year to get down 14 pounds. With cardio only I lost 7 pounds and then was stuck for about 5 months so started weight training and it budged again but now stuck again but I'm going to hide the…

thanks everyone you're all too kind! I'm glad I took them as I HAVE to walk away from the scales....I just look at my wobbles and am blinded by the old chubby me! thank you :flowerforyou: weights are just so important. I did 6 months of intense cardio and loved it....but it's weight training that's changed my figure

thank you....it's after seeing this photo that I do look slim now ( compare to ones I took earlier in the year)....I don't see it when I look in the mirror as I'm blinded by my weight...i'm not looking at the scale anymore, think I might have a break from that and just continue with this programme.... I don't understand…

I do have before photos but they're just coming out huge! I am making the JPG into lower case? what else can I do? i'm crap on computers!!!

sorry I don't know how to organise them - can just about see my arms!

[/URL trying again!

right here goes, bear with me, no idea what I'm doing! may have to do one at a time! and may take all day as I'm at work...here's first side view...I had to take most of them myself and with my daughter so they're not great....eeek! [/URL

no! keep forgetting! works gone crazy and i'm running around like a mad woman at the moment! When I do remember it's when i'm half naked getting ready for work and the cameras down stairs...i'll do it soon! I hate myself in photos so it's gonna be tough!

and yours are amazing transformation!

my husband would just laugh so I don't want to ask him! :laugh:

gulp....ok I'll try....can only take them myself so they don't come out that well! my daughter might take them but I feel a bit foolish! I ws actually going to do it this morning but I'd left my camera at work....promise I'll do it soon! I just don't like myself in photos!

but I might chicken out!

I'll give it a go....! nervous laugh..... i'll try and get some over the weekend and post them next week

Hi sorry just seen this and piping in! I had a break over Summer and started back on week one which really helped....it's tough...although sounds like you've sorted it best to go back a step and get good form... ooo a PT session, I'd love some of those for xmas too!

all I can say is WOW to all of you .... amazing inspiration to us all and thank you so much for posting these...fantastic progress you all look fabulous!! :flowerforyou:

thanks everyone, day one of third week after work today! x 10 tonight heavy day....i'm very very tired but will push through and get it done hopefully!!!

thanks :smile: good to be back

Hi I've had a break from this routine due to holiday/concentrating on a big charity walk so backed off completely from weights and then did a routine my gym instructor gave me but it was a lot of shoulder work which hurt due to an injury and much prefer this routine. So I've started back over again, I haven't increased…

Hi Balti's are pretty good as tomato based. I love vegetable balti. I'm not a vegetarian but always have it with chicken tikka and it's pretty low calorie have a great night

start lifting straight away, you won't regret it....

very interested :happy:

it's the best thing I've done, keep at it :smile:

straight away! I plateaued for 5 months even though I was keeping really fit with cardio, probably 6 times a week and within cals etc....as soon as I started weight training it jump started weight loss and its' making a huge difference within 7 weeks. Go for it. yeah new rules and stronglifts are meant to be good. If you…

agree with the others....and don't be afraid to bring the weight down if it's still too much. You're better off getting your form right initially and then start increasing as you get used to it. That's very heavy weights you're doing already! well done you for getting started....i'm loving it...good luck:flowerforyou:
