Default Pleasant shock/surprise!

First off, apologies I'm in my underwear :P Oh, and the floor is messy lol.

I decided on a whim to take a photo at my current weight/size just because looking in the mirror was starting to become a little distorted. Pictures can't lie after all!

But I was so excited when I could actually see a little bit of definition happening now!!

This is me at 145 pounds (about 66kgs) My actual goal is fairly close now... I would love to down to around 63kgs (138 pounds) and the closer it gets...that harder it also gets to keep up the work. This has definitely helped spur me on! But anyway, I'm doing a happy dance right now and had to share the good vibe lol

I like your shorts tan!

You look great! We are the same height, and where you are now is right around where I want to be. I would be quite happy to look like you!

Thanks guys!

Playfull...not sure why it decided to disappear but it seems to be working alright now... oh well, computers are contankerous things lol.

Love - yeah, I have the WORST tan lines lol. So dark on my shoulders and legs and stark white in the middle :P Too much outdoor activity and obviously not of the swimming variety!

I guess losing a little more body fat is probably the more accurate description of what I wouldnt mind doing. I doubt my actual weight will drop all that much more but my measurements may a little.

What exercises do you do? You have a gorgeous body and I am completely jealous! I can't wait until I'm there! I think in about 10 - 15 more pounds I'll see quite a bit of definition too I know I see a bit in my abs right now

Missy - Thanks!

I try and do weights or some form of resistance/strength work 3 times a week which would include shoulders, arms, back, legs, bum etc and core work. I use a combination of machine and free weights and include squats and lunges. I've always found them the best for legs!

My other exercise is a combination of gym (spin, treadmill and rower), outdoor running and dragonboating (paddling). The paddling has been awesome for an all over tone (core, back and shoulders especially) and cardio endurance. I can do a 6 minute bridge now thanks to it! hehe.

Good luck with your weightloss as well, if you can already see some definition now you must already be looking fabulous. I
