  • Don't give up! I'm 5'2" and in 2010 hit 140lbs... I lost 25lbs by changing only my diet, no exercise, (down to 115) and then I gained back 10lbs... I'm now at 123. When I was 115 (and now) I was "Fat Skinny" since I didn't work out at all. I'm mean I'm small but I got flab.... and that's also why I ended up gaining back…

  • Where do you live? Ann Arbor, Michigan What are your food vices/ cheats? Booze, cheese & hot wings! What do you think is holding you back from being in your TOP shape?
