Re: Sherry Gideons Lost 70 Pounds!!! Great Transformation!! New Photo!!

[Guest guest]

I joined Sherry's club and saw her before and after photos. I was

unable to add photos to the existing album here in the group for her,

so I created another album named Sherry Gideon's Transformation. I

added a new before picture of Sherry at 31 years of age and 195

pounds.(obtained from her group) Sherry is also 5'6. I'm personally

very impressed by her 70lb loss, and think she looks great at her

current 125lbs. It's about time that women who have lost more than 15

or 20 pounds proudly display fitness/bodybuilder competitors bodies.--

I think there are a lot of women who have probably lost a lot of

weight and are now bodybuilders or competitors. I lurk in quite a few

clubs, and have noticed that most women who evolve to a better health

and physical status tend to gravitate to new forums for support,

rather than , MSN, and other discussion groups. That's actually

a good thing. Growth requires change, and to many people these groups

are stepping stones or support along the way, but there comes a time

when most people no longer need them. It's similar to a child who

grows up and leaves home to attend college or start a career in

another state. So, although most of the members in online groups will

have transformations that are impressive, they may not be

professional bodybuilders, profesional fitness competitors, or even

have a desire to be so. You need to surround yourself with people who

have the same goals as you do. Most of us here in the groups are

trying to just get in shape and lose fat. Competitions are down the

road for many, or not even important. Even transformations such as

Mina, Pamb, and other women, if you notice as they evolve, they limit

or discontinue regular posting in public groups. Lack of time, and

higher endeavors are the cause rather than lack of interest. So if

you are looking for succes stories similar to sherry gideons, you may

have to look at fitness sites or other online locations. She looks

awesome by the way. Job well done.

Well I tried to gravitate to the bodybuilding forum but it was so

full of steroid charged men wanting to talk about sex that I didn't

linger. Already lurked on the rest of the BFL type clubs and they

don't move fast enough for me. The same one post might sit there for

days. If someone really needs to know something there's no telling

when they would get an answer.

Stasia-

I really agree with you. I feel like the 'little woman' in some of

those bodybuilding sites. And all the other BFL clubs I have seen

don't seem to have too much activity.
