  • Holy biscuits! Girl, you look great!! You looked lovely before the re-comp but the weight training has made SUCH a difference. Awesome job! I'm in a weight lifting program, too, and I hope my legs can look as good as yours!

  • I'm on a tiny budget as well (college student!) and I've found a few tips that have really helped me not break the bank. Sub boneless skinless chicken breasts for chicken thighs!! They're usually half the price, not much higher in calories (especially if you remove the skin) and a whole lot tastier!! You can toss them in…

  • My boyfriend mentioned how much more toned my legs are looking since I started weight lifting. I rocked my shorts today!

  • My (thinner than me) roommate asked me for workout advice and even asked to come on my next run with me! Never thought I'd be someone that people came to for fitness advice. :) It was a great feeling.

  • I think it depends on the workout and personal preference. If I eat before a yoga class, I feel sick halfway through and I feel like I can't get as deeply into the poses. If I've gone more than three hours since eating before running, I get totally drained. Find what works for you!

  • Completely getting rid of beer in my diet and DRASTICALLY reducing my wine intake. I used to drink like 2 and half bottles of wine a week and never thought much of the calories in it. Don't judge. I was going through a tough time and too mentally weak to cope a different way. Now I'll MAYBE have a glass of Riesling or two…
    in What's the best SMALL change you've made? Comment by dearcrumpet April 2014
  • I'm 5'5" and currently 140lb. I'm measuring in at Bust 36 Waist 26 and Hips 39. I'm a definite pear shape with a small body frame. My ribcage is pretty small but I have a large cup size (32DD). My tummy and arms tend to stay small while my booty, thighs, and boobs GROW each time I gain weight! I do yoga almost everyday and…
    in ladies - 5ft 5/6 what are your measurements? Comment by dearcrumpet April 2014
  • Congrats!! I have a big ol' Latin booty and thighs that I've been self-conscious of since forever. I've never been confident wearing shorts for fear of the cellulite gracing my thighs. I'm hoping my weight training will change that. Thanks for the motivation!

  • I just made mine open! I didn't realize it was closed! As a waitress, I'm always running around and plus, work out six times a week. I feel like my intake may be a bit higher than most ladies with my stats (5'5" and currently 135lb) but it works for me!

  • If you lose the weight slowly and couple it with strengthening exercises and suggested by the other users, you shouldn't have too much of a problem with "the girls". Also, I think it would also depend on the amount of weight you want to lose overall. If it's not TOO much, your skin should bounce back. Sadly for me, I'm 22…
