90 pounds lost, transformed

wow. i'm the same height as you and you look way better at 202 than i do at 170! amazing work! how'd ya do it?
 
Thanks everyone!

englishrider127 and knoxville,

yeah, a lot of people say I carry my weight well, thank goodness! I went for an assessment at my gym and the trainer couldn't believe I was 220 pounds at the time. She thought I was around 180 at that point. I have a large bone structure and a lot of muscle mass too though from weight training, which helps a lot. I got my body fat percentage taken, and my LEAN mass alone (bones, muscle, organs) which EXCLUDES all body fat is 133 pounds.. and women need 20-28% body fat to be healthy.. so add 20% body fat to 133 pounds, and my MINIMUM healthy weight is 155-165. I was advised not to go any lower, but to ideally aim for 170. Crazy for only being 5'4"!

-Kari?

Hey congratulations you are looking good! Keep up the good work. I can't wait to see you at 155!
 
Great job! With all that muscle mass you obviously have the capacity to be dedicated to your health - hopefully that will serve you well to getting to your goal!
 
OMG you look very good ;) But wait 5'4 and 202 lbs? You look Amazing! I'm 5'4 and at 184 i looked terrible... It's Amazing that you look that awesome hot stuff :D Keep it up!
 
haha thanks megaman6000!

My assessment at the gym showed I have above average lean mass for a female my height/age/weight. A lot of people say I carry my weight well and are shocked that I've lost 90 pounds, and am still 200+

Well.. happy to report that I'm now 198.6! :) Thanks for commenting!
 
LOL, lately everyone is saying I don't look more than 160-170 lbs. I guarantee that these pictures were at 202 pounds! And I'm only 5'4"! I have a high lean mass though, heavy bone structure, lots of muscle because I weight train 5 days a week in addition to cardio! I'll take that comment as a huge compliment though! haha, thanks!
 
Awesome job!

The first time reading through I skipped over the part where you said you were still over 200lbs. Then I down farther and see you say something about it and I am like, "what the..."

It just reaffirms what folks like Steve have been saying. Our goals shouldn't be a number on the scale, but a measurement of fitness.

Keep up the great work!
