Day 21

So I was gonna wait a month to take another progress picture, but I got impatient and wanted to see if there was any noticeable difference in my weight. I haven't weighed myself this whole time (My scale needs new batteries and I haven't gotten around to replacing them), and I was so shocked to see such a difference in such a short time.

Still have quite a bit to go, but it feels good seeing all this hard work paying off. :smile:

    Thanks!
    I'm glad I took pics, I think its so much better than relying on the scale. When I started lifting last year, my weight wouldn't budge but I dropped 2 pants sizes. I got discouraged though cause I was so hung up on the number. I'll weigh myself eventually.

    I'm eating around 1800-2000 calories a day, weighing everything on a food scale just to be absolutely sure. I'm doing Starting Strength 3 days a week and I love it...I don't do much cardio, usually just yoga on an off day, or one of the P90X cardio dvds I have at home if I'm feeling bored/ambitious.
