Build muscle and shed body fat
It seems to be possible. After a 60 pound weight loss and day 1 of lifting on the left. 7 months later on the right. I put a inch on my arms and dropped 2 pant sizes. Not that I care about the scale but I did drop another 6 pounds. I am doing a 3-400 calorie deficit

Creeping closer
Trusting the process and getting closer. Lifting has been a game changer. Chase your dreams

Been a long haul
At my highest I was 205. Currently 145. Been a struggle until I got serious. Been at it awhile. Not bad for being 55.

lost 50 by age 50
While I am a few months short of turning 50 I have met my goal of losing 50 pounds before my 50th birthday. I am 5-4 and started around 189. Way to heavy!
