Way to go! You looked very athletic before but now you're super toned and slim! Congrats on the weight loss, the hard work really paid off. You rock the bikini! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cant-believe-i-am-doing-this-before-and-after-pics/page/2#post-737419 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 01:14:32 +0000 Anonymous 737419@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think you have a long torso. You stand up with your pelvis leaning forward and also wear your clothes below your natural waist. I think those two things add to the illusion of a long torso. It is my opinion, looking at the before photo that you are proportionate. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cant-believe-i-am-doing-this-before-and-after-pics/page/2#post-737416 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 01:12:54 +0000 ironkurtin 737416@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, and Zap, I have a personal trainer two times a week. I also try to do high-intensity cardio on , but mostly I am trying to increase lean muscle mass with weights. I think that's what he says. Sorry I can't be more helpful, I mostly do what he says and whine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cant-believe-i-am-doing-this-before-and-after-pics/page/2#post-737412 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 01:09:28 +0000 ironkurtin 737412@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are all so sweet with the compliments! Thank you!</p> <p>Forgive me for a moment as I freak out about the long torso thing, though. My whole life I've been told I have long LEGS. I've never had to hem anything! So this long torso thing is weird to me. I do not think I look like the long torso pictures shown here in the slightest, but maybe it is body dismorphia or something?</p> <p>As Suz pointed out, most of my pictures are taken from up to my face, which naturally foreshortens. So maybe that's what's doing it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cant-believe-i-am-doing-this-before-and-after-pics/page/2#post-737345 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 00:31:56 +0000 Debora 737345@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations on your weight loss!

Incredibly inspirational especially since you tackled this as a lifestyle change rather than just a diet or weight loss regiment. Also, a swimming robot!! That's a BIG compliment in my book ^^ </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cant-believe-i-am-doing-this-before-and-after-pics/page/2#post-737235 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 23:22:03 +0000 Caro in Oz 737235@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are such an inspiration - thanks so much for posting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cant-believe-i-am-doing-this-before-and-after-pics/page/2#post-737232 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 23:19:35 +0000 D'Ellen 737232@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW!!!

That is, with the length between waist and hip rather than bust and waist. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cant-believe-i-am-doing-this-before-and-after-pics/page/2#post-737184 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 22:44:30 +0000 Anonymous 737184@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cant-believe-i-am-doing-this-before-and-after-pics/page/2#post-737115 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 21:27:56 +0000 Sona 737115@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>IK you are such an inspiration.

More pics! More pics! More pics! And in only seven months?!? Isn't it so fab to be so visibly rewarded for your hard work? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cant-believe-i-am-doing-this-before-and-after-pics/page/2#post-737059 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 20:30:27 +0000 Debbie 737059@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow you look amazing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cant-believe-i-am-doing-this-before-and-after-pics/page/2#post-737058 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 20:29:59 +0000 Anonymous 737058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>IK, would you care to go over your exercise routine?

You look great in the befores and even better in the afters! You should be proud of your hard work! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cant-believe-i-am-doing-this-before-and-after-pics#post-736946 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 18:20:36 +0000 sinead 736946@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations!! This is really inspiring and I so appreciate you sharing this with us. To my eye, you have a wonderfully proportionate body- but as someone pointed out it can be hard to tell in a photo with the angles and all. And lucky you- I think the IT body looks so great in clothes. Seems like there is very little that isn't flattering. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cant-believe-i-am-doing-this-before-and-after-pics#post-736928 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 17:57:38 +0000 catgirl 736928@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look like you have a long torso. Short-waist vs. short torso always confuses me. Whatever you have, it's looking fit and fab. Very inspiring. Maybe I need to cut out carbs because no matter how much I exercise I can't shed the spare tire! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cant-believe-i-am-doing-this-before-and-after-pics#post-736924 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 17:56:43 +0000 annagybe 736924@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Impressive! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cant-believe-i-am-doing-this-before-and-after-pics#post-736922 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 17:55:43 +0000 rachylou 736922@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You definitely are looking svelte! Also, I love *swimming robot*!</p> <p>I have to say, I do think of you as long-waisted and an inverted triangle. I eye from shoulders to hips - the whole length of the torso - when it comes to these things. As opposed to from waist to hips. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cant-believe-i-am-doing-this-before-and-after-pics#post-736880 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 17:17:36 +0000 CK 736880@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look amazing!

Those are impressive results. You look fantastic. </p> <p>And yes, you are an IT and a fit one! </p> <p>(I'll bet you can do a pull-up!) </p> <p>On the long-waisted question, I don't think so, but it's awfully tough to tell with photos taken at the self-photo angle, which may be why Krish got that impression; it tends to shorten your legs when you take the photos yourself. </p> <p>You could always go through the measurement process over on Inside Out style if you want to get really nit-picky about it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cant-believe-i-am-doing-this-before-and-after-pics#post-736872 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 17:07:46 +0000 JulieJohn 736872@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Excellent!
