I'm 5'5" and you can see my progress in my profile pic :)

Thank you everyone for your kind words! It is definitely more than appreciated. :flowerforyou:

Wow, haha :embarassed: :laugh:

I would also back away slowly

Finally somebody who understands me about that lol :drinker:

MOARANGE. When you need more orange in your life. :bigsmile:

stay :o

Then we are shaped differently, because I have a muffin top with no clothes on. I've always carried my belly fat more on my sides than the front.

That sounds more complicated than it needs to be lol. I think I will just focus on weight training more and paying closer attention to my macros.

Alright, well thank you everyone for your help, I really appreciate it. I will definitely be taking the macro thing and more lifting, less cardio thing into account. :heart:

Oh, and I weigh 142 lbs if that helps any.

Ah, I just read this ha. I will see what I can do! I know I def need more protein. I'm not too much of a meat fan, so I'll have to get it from other sources.

Should I maybe be cutting carbs and upping my protein take? Also, I would like to add a yoga day or two, but I have no idea where to start with it! Any suggestions for that would be welcomed.

Ah let's see... Typically I eat about 1800 calories a day, but usually I eat towards 2000 on workout days. MFP has my goals set as : Carbs - 251 Fat - 67 Protein - 100

I will definitely be taking that into account, thank you.

I started out a size 14 in jeans (pushing 16...) and can now fit in a size 8 jean, and some 6's! As corny and cliche as it is, just about anything really is possible!

Well from what you guys have said so far, its sounds like I just have to be more patient with my progress. I do eat at a deficit, I do cardio 4-5 times a week, and I do strength train 3 days a week. I'm thinking I will kick up my work outs a notch or two and see where that takes me. :glasses:

Thank you everyone for your advice, I appreciate the feedback.

While I am sure that is a good point for some, it is sadly nothing to help me, because I have a muffin top butt naked. :brokenheart:

Pass :tongue:

You can see my progress in my profile pic! I am almost to my 40 lbs mark!!! I still have a long way to go, but I have already come an incredibly long way. :heart:

Honestly, I have tried Hydroxycut on and off and it does work for me. HOWEVER. It is definitely not a long term solution. When I take it, I do not allow myself to slack. I still eat at a healthy calorie deficit and I still workout at least 4 days a week. And I don't plan on ever buying it again. For the most part, it is a…

Thank you very much! :) I'm not the kind of person that enjoys workouts like zumba and stuff like that. I like doing straight up gym routines. I work out 4 to 5 days a week. Cardio is a great thing, especially when you first start. But if you really want to take things far, weight lifting is a huge must! At the gym I like…

Thank you! Its a small world, after all! ;)

Although I have not met my goal weight yet, I did maintain my weight for a few months after losing about 30 lbs or so. Just recently in the past few weeks have I started losing again. For me, maintaining was not very difficult. I think this is because healthy/low calorie eating had become more of a habit. Even when I…

Thank you! :heart:

Thank you! So are you! :drinker:

Thank you, this is very true!

Damn, you is fine! :love:

I love #2, squishy strong, because um, Tom Hardy, of course. I like my men strong, with big arms, but a little pudgy around the waist.
