Yup, that sums it up. :)

Nope, that about nails it! Well, except the glowing aspect that she HAS done all that and most people only dream of doing it.

No, most people don't dream of doing any of that, they just want instant results so it doesn't hurt.

Those that do dream of it are the ones that are already doing it or on the injured list.

She does a little more than just hard work, IMO. Kat goes above and beyond her routines, and even sneaks in lunch sessions for two-a-days.

Ok.same thing. They dream of the results but don't want to put in the time, effort, and research it takes to do it and maintain it.

True, but I'm thinking that might hurt too......just in a different way. ????

I saw a video of a liposuction once. Good night! You can't tell me that person didn't feel like they got the crap beat out of them!

Definitely prefer the girls that kick a$$ in the gym to lose the fat and tone the muscle because they turn out sexy! The others are just skinnier afterwards.

My coworker got the surgery and he was back at work in a week. He's already lost 60lbs in 2 months.
 
Be very proud Kat! Your transformation is a great example of what hard work and determination can do! Way to go girl!
 
Aww you guys (and gal) are so wonderful to me!!! Thank you so much!! I can't even describe how you just made me feel so good! Y'all rock!!! :-*

Most people that I know that have had that surgery gain the weight back eventually
Because they haven't rally changed their lifestyle, the surgery helped them lose weight
Initially, but eventually they stretch their stomach out again and start to gain the weight
Back again because they haven't done any internal changes metallly.
 
AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! One of the best transformations i've seen period. You can def tell how much hard work and effort you put in KAT!!! I love this def motivates others. Your a true inspiration to so many you don't even know.

That is how it happened with my aunt.
 
Finally gettin caught up on everyone's logs. That is awesome progress Kat!!! Like it was said earlier, you are a huge inspiration to a lot of people I am sure!!
 
Great progress Kat and I know you will just keep improving with the way you attack it each day!
 
Thank you all so much! It does feel great. I hope just to inspire others to be their best! We all have different goals but they all take determination and hard work!

Sadly, this is what I've seen the most of as well! It's a lifestyle change regardless of how you go about it! Just like with the weight loss programs that so many women do, they starve themselves to loose the weight...that is detrimental to their bodies...then once the weight is off, they return t their normal diet and it all comes back along with extra in most cases! I was that way growing up. I would avoid eating and then binge. I yoyo'd around 200 for the majority of my life! I'm so grateful that God opened my eyes up to taking care of my body! It's the only one I've got and it's his temple!

Amen to that sister!!
 
The elitefts bands are on sale...what sizes do I need?
 
It's really going to depend on what you will use them for. I'm sure Wasme will chime in. For me I'd go the Pro Strong but I'm not sure I'd use them that much because of set up time. Wasme seems to have the bands down though so his experience using them will help you deciding.Invalid Link Removed

I'll look for that video on setting them up. It's really not that time consuming.

...and is really a good deal. I tried to save money by buying Walmart bands and have more than that in the 7 I have (not including the yoga bands I use for O&B's and spider crawls), and 5 still lack the other 1/2 of a pair.
 
Thanks guys! I can't buy the full set just yet but they have all of the individual ones on sale. I was just trying to figure out where to start. I figured having some was better than none. :)

Just pick a couple pairs off that list and grab a couple. Personally, if I could only get one it'd be the slightly heavier ones for bench and squat, and if I could get a second pair maybe I'd get the second lightest...
 
Get the green and red ones. You can use them together for the same resistance as the big fat orange ones.
 
Thanks for the help you guys!!! :)

Congrats on the PRs! LOL, I had to go through your routine in sections. I just kept scrolling, and scrolling...
 
I started reading your workout and had to take breaks! Giving Wasme a run for his money on volume. Are you kin to Ronda Rousey? With workouts like that I think you may be...

Oh, it definitely is that! I love running it in the mornings when there are no cars and you just hear the waves crashing on the rocks! Almost like running on the beach! Great time for just talking/listening to God!

Kat great workout! Do you think you'll stay on MacaPro going forward and how many bottles are you using per month?
Click to expand...
Thank you! Yes, absolutely! The bottle has last well over a month since I started with 1 pill a day. There are 60 capsules so 2 a day would last a full 30 days! :)
 
Amazing workout Kat def love your back routine and wow on the cardio!!!
