Next round of pics: Weight 158

My waist at 158 pounds. Not a big difference from the last round of pics at 170, but my back fast is almost all gone. My weight loss is slowing down, but I am confident I will get to my target weight of 130 pounds if I just keep exercising and not overeating. I should take a better pic, but another difference I noticed with my weight loss since the last round of pics is the fat on my bottom has shrunk and left my butt muscle more defined. I used to have more sag; a lot of fat over the curve.

My waist front view. Still have flab and definitely see the need for improvement, but I am happy with how much better my belly looks compared to when I started, and I feel so much better too. I didn’t realize how much it took out of me to carry that big pillow stomach around.

Gratuitous booby shot. I rarely wear a bra because I have sensitive skin and they just aggravate me, plus I am not symmetrical in size and I’m hard to fit. I probably should get professionally fitted. But – I have made sure to wear a sports bra when I exercise as other women tell me I will get extra saggy if I don’t. No bra in this pic, I think I still am perky. Not bad for 35 and having had 3 kids.

My legs!! I am trying really hard to stay body-positive about my legs, but this is getting to me. I have only lost a half-inch on my legs since the last round of pics and I can barely tell from looking at them. I am pear-shaped i.e small top big bottom, OK, but sheesh. Lotta fat on my thighs still. The bulk of the 28 pounds I’m going to lose is here.

Lotta fat on my thighs still. I do have better muscle tone and I have gained a lot of strength in my legs, so I feel really good about that. When starting this challenge my legs were so weak I could barely do basic yoga moves. Now I feel able to support my body and able to balance my body. This has affected me in even little things like just walking around. I am steadier on my feet.

The biggest change is in my arms! It took 5 months but I can see a big change now! The fat is greatly decreased and I have more muscle tone. Finally!

The not overeating part has gotten easier but the past couple days I have had to really squeeze my exercise in. I find it best to stick to a schedule, but I’m flexible too. Weighed-in this morning 158 pounds. This is what I mean when I said I didn’t want to run because of so much fat on my knees. This is my leg now, at 158, it really hung over the knee when I was heavier. I should have taken a side view at 201 pounds so ya’ll could see.

Me at 158 in clothes! These are size 10 pants with a drawstring waist. They felt fine in the leg and are very comfy.
