Hmmmm ... probably a 7.

Great job! Your stomach looks wonderful!!!

WOW! Me too!!! Thanks for the inspiration!!! I will definitely stick to it!!!

My daughter also has Hashimoto's and she is only 13. You can imagine what this does to her body image. It's tough, but I try to help her to eat right and exercise. I am also trying to set a good example by doing the same. Last summer, she lost 10 pounds. She has gained a few back over the winter, but has also grown a…

How do you all calculate body fat %? An online calculator? I went to our local gym and asked to have it figured, but they said they do not have the calipers? and that they are not an accurate measure anyway. So I am curious what is the best way? So I just used an online calculator and got four different percentages...…

Great story! WAY TO GO! I appreciate you sharing everything you did diet and exercise wise to meet your goal. I am currently at 160, from 170 and my goal is 135. I am also doing 30 DS, when I can fit it in, which for now is about 4x a week. When school gets out (I am a teacher) I will have much more time to work out. How…

You look great! We are about the same height and I started at 170. I am currently at 160. My goal is 135, but my doctor told me today that 135 was too thin, to aim for 145. I did not like that answer at all, until I just saw your picture. Have you done a lot of exercising to gain muscle mass and tone? If so, I may be happy…

Heck no, I'm not muscular, at least I don't look like it! LOL! But I am always told that I do not look like I weigh what I weigh, or that I carry my weight well. I wear a size 8/10 pants and a M/L shirt. But I have a good friend who has lost a lot of weight and is now at 140 and we share clothes. So, I don't know...Maybe…

WOW!! You look GORGEOUS!!! And your weight is unbelievable. I was just told today, by my doctor, that 135 was too thin for me at my height. Ughhh...

I am 5'4.5" and started at 170. I am now at 160. I saw my doctor today who is helping me along this journey and is pleased with the progress I have made. However, when she asked me what my goal was and I replied with 135, she immediately told me that was too thin. REALLY? My current BMI is a 27. She said that is healthy,…

I probably should have stressed that the majority of my sugars are from fruits. I love them!!! I also usually eat a granola bar in the morning, so I get sugar from that too.

Me too!!! :smile:

Bump

Don't skip girl, you've come too far!!! If the people below you complain, tell them you are getting your fitness on!!! Most likely, they won't complain and they will have no idea it is YOU making all the noise!!! :happy:

This is an amazing thread! I love seeing all of these astounding results!!! It gives me hope! I am 5'4" and am currently at 163. I started this go 'round at 170. My highest was about 190 a few years ago. My goal is 135, possibly 140, if I am toned and happy with how I look out of clothes. I am currently a size 8-10, but…

LOL! I hate them because they make me pee in my pants!!!! Oh the joys of motherhood!!!

Wow, girl, you look AMAZING!!! Your figure is to die for!!! Congrats on your success thus far!!!! Keep up the great work and keep us inspired and motivated!!!

I have been taking phentermine 37.5 for almost 4 weeks. Since I began taking them, I have lost my cravings for sugar and carbs. It has really curbed my appetite. I am counting my calories and I am trying to exercise several times a week. I want to make this a lifestyle change, with the help of the medication to get me…

I just started back at this today after seeing so many fantastic reviews. I have had it for years and started multiple times, but never made it very far. I am really planning to stick to it this time, especially since it's only 20 minutes long. I have NO excuse to not be able to find 20 minutes a day. But, WOW, it kicked…

WOW!!! What an amazing NSV!!! Way to go!!! You must really be doing an awesome job with both eating and working out!!!

Google "body type calculator". I just did it. I also thought I was hourglass, but I am straight/banana. To be hourglass your waist should be about 9 inches smaller than your bust and hips, from what I have read. My waist nips in, but not that much! HA HA!

I just read your "About Me" section and just wanted to tell you, you put those VS models to SHAME!!! Your body is absolutely unbelievable!!!! WOW!!! You are SUCH an inspiration! I know I will never look like you, but by golly, I'm going to try!!!

Amazing results so far!!! I am looking forward to seeing your end results!!!

Huge hips WHATEVER!!! You look GREAT!!!! :happy:

Awesome post!!! I wish you the best!!! You can do it! YOU and your family are worth it!!!

Sweatpea ~ What an amazing transformation in just six weeks!!! You look wonderful!!! I cannot believe how much your stomach has tightened and smoothed out. I have that problem area too after two wonderful children! It's flat, but not tight...so I'm gonna keep working at it!! Do you mind sharing what you did over those 6…

Looks delicious!!!

My ultimate summer goal is to fit into my 13 year old daughter's size 6 zebra striped shorts from Loft. I can get them on and zipped, but they are very tight...I WILL GET THERE!!!

Holy Moly! You look freaking amazing, in my opinion!!! WOW!!! You inspire me!!!
