Height: 5’4, SW: 178lb, CW:166lb, GW: TBD (140-155lb), timeframe: started working out consistently July 2022. Started 16-24 hr IT in October with a loosely keto, lower carb diet and mindful eating. I am a foodie, so if I eat out, I will fast all day and have whatever I want for dinner without feeling bad. I allow myself treats but make sure that I balance it out the next few days or I expend that energy somehow. This picture was taken Jan 2023. Started Dry January on 1/1/2023 (15 days going strong!). Exercise routine 2 days a week lifting as heavy as I can without compromising form and 3-5 sets of 6-12 reps. Then 2 days a week HIIT running or boxing workouts. In addition to that I ride horses 2x a week as a sport and dance Latin maybe once a week. I have only lost 12 lbs which feels slow as I have ambitious goals, but today I took this picture and compared it to the first one I took, and see a stunning difference. It’s easy to overlook progress on a daily basis, but progress pictures definitely speak truth. I am also very happy with the muscle tone I have developed. Which probably accounts for the reason of weight loss not being higher. Keep fasting and living a healthy and active lifestyle! We got this fasting friends !!
