I have ~40lbs to lose, just bought a food scale, heavy lifts on upper body (knee injury prevents lower body), and light cardio on elliptical. add me :) also, yay 802!!!

Re-take those pictures that took you out of your comfort zone in a month or two, you'll be absolutely shocked. Someone else has mentioned the trouble of how photos can vary if even off by an inch, and have discovered this problem myself. Things that help me overcome this: put the camera on a tripod (or a surface that never…

I'm 5'7, SW 179, i'm in the high 160s right now but I haven't weighed myself in a couple weeks. goal weight is 145, just because as the BMI scale goes, 145 seems a nice healthy medium between under and overweight. left: 177 right: 170

i'm about 170lbs now at 5'7 8-10lbs down, around 25 more to go, add me! coming up on my month marker.

just found walk the pounds away, this was exactly what i was looking for, thanks a bunch!

thanks i'll look into walk away the pounds. i live in a pretty hot environment so i try to stay indoors. but i should probably just get up early and walk in the morning before the sun is up.

5'7 HW 185-190 several years ago SW 179 CW 171 GW1 160 GW2 145 I am 25. Feel free to friend me if you've got similar stats!

wow you look great! i also think you carried your 180 a lot better than i'm carrying/i carried mine. my heaviest was very similar. probably 185-190 back around 2009/2010. i didn't step on a scale then because i just didn't want to know.. and i told doctors as much when they weighed me during that time. i do know that i…

i think 120 might be a stretch for me... i haven't been in 120s since i was in 6th grade (128 & 5'6 then) ihave a terrible case of stretch marks from my hips to my knees because of prednisone i think. i don't know why else i would have gotten them, i was 135lbs at the time and i've never had a child. i think if my skin…

awesome! ok, won't worry about the loose skin, then. eventually i might go to the gym but i think i need to prove to myself that i'm going to stick with it first. i also think i've got some learning to do before i can be efficient at the gym. super excited, just ordered a body fat caliper online. :D

by heavy lifting... can i do this at home without a home gym setup? i don't really want to pay for a gym membership if i can help it. i have 10lb ankle weights (20lb combined), and a set of weights for curling. once i get better at squats i'll add weights to it. the slim in 6 video does a cardio section as well as abs,…

i'm in my mid 20s :) i'm about 175-177 and i'd like to get to probably 145 ultimately, but my first goal is 160.

update: been working on stretching like crazy. i've really been concentrating on getting rid of that posterior tilt i had while stretching. i did about 25 minutes of cardio/light strength training (slim in 6 phase 1) and did 15 minutes of floor stretches afterwards, making sure to hold each position for at least 30…

no_finish_line: i actually forgot that i do the stretch sitting on the floor with my legs spread out like a v and trying to touch the toes on each foot at a time. the towel is a really good idea, i might try that (and will be careful with it) leadingMuscle: that was ridiculously helpful, especially the video. when she…
