I know it is only 5 lbs but when I took my weekly picture I was so excited to see that it was actually a pretty decent change. The 5 lbs was lost over 2 weeks.
You can't really see the change unless you make the pictures bigger. Only posting these to help keep me motivated. The fact that I know someone might see them makes me want to keep working hard!
 
WOW I wish 5 lbs made that much a diff. on me! Looks like you lost more then 5lbs and you look smaller then in the 160s. keep up the good work:)
 
Thanks Amber! It feels good knowing that someone else can see a change. It probably doesn't seem like I am in the 160's because I am so tall which you can't tell from the pictures...
 
Your stomach definitely looks smoother/smaller.
I am also 160Lbs. How tall are you? I'm a little over 5'8, 20 years old. I'm aiming for 145Lbs... 150Lbs by the end of April if all goes well. It's hard though because I have final exams right now and I'm pretty stressed out.
Keep up the good work.
Ps. your bikini is really cute.
 
Hey Freshman. Thanks for your comment! This bikini used to fit a lot better if i remember correctly :) I am 23 and 163 lbs at 5'9'' so we are basically at the same place! We have about the same goals too. We should be buddies and work together on this! I haven't been below 150 in a LONG time.. I always seem to plateau there..
 
I'm definitely the same way. I find it really hard to get below 150Lbs, so I get frusterated and give up. I am quite a yo-yo dieter... but I am trying to break the cycle -- I'd rather be 150Lbs than 160Lbs so this time I'm just going to stick to it.
 
I do the same thing! I think when i get to 150 I am going to double my workout no matter how hard it is for like 2 weeks and see if I can break through.. Good luck with everything!
 
:seeya: Wow, you can wear that bikini already! You already look good - when you hit your goal, you will look *stunning*!

Best wishes on your journey. Keep up the great work!

are you sure werent just sucking in... jk jk lol

that is pretty amazing though to see that much of a difference with just 5 pounds... i wish my body worked like that... lol... good luck!!!
 
Yeah my body is weird like that.. The first 5 lbs really shows then after that it doesn't at all. If I lose 15 lbs from where I am at now I will pretty much look the same!
 
wow that is a pretty noticable change. i feel like my change was less with 60 pounds lost lol.

plus, ure cute hehe

Wow, you look amazing! I agree with Ambernc, I wish 5 pounds showed that much on me also. Keep going and dont let the slow down get you down. Just fight through it and change up you exercise and calories that should help.
 
Thanks for the comment coffebro. I am definitely going to try that when I get to a plateau. Maybe doing some more weight training too would help me to tone up.
 
"don't let the slow down get you down" - coffeebro
I'm going to make that my mantra lol... it really does get frusterating when you are working really hard and the weight doesn't want to budge.
 
Hi everyone!
I was just checking in to see how everyone's weight loss is coming along. I finished my last exam Friday, and despite a stressful week I managed to drop a few pounds. I'm really happy to be 156.5 because I was stuck at 160.5Lbs for a couple weeks... it was pretty discouraging. I bought myself a pair of jeans the other day. They are fabulous. I know if I plan to lose more weight buying clothes is silly but I felt like I needed a treat. They're 30/34. I don't know what the works out to in 0,2,4.. sizes?!?! My ultimate goal would probably be a size 6.
Anyways hope everyone is well.
