    I AM STRONG. Well, maybe that's an exaggeration....

    I AM STRONGER THAN I WAS ON JANUARY 1, 2012. And, I fit into my jeans better than I did then.

    But:

    a. I have not had to buy new clothes because all of my clothes still fit. (And, yes, I *see* those of you who are posting that you are down 2 sizes!! 3 sizes!! 5 sizes!!!)

    b. I certainly can't be reducing my "body fat percentage" if I'm not reducing my weight, for pete's sakes. On some level, I either need to expand my neck HUGELY (because big-necked girls have WAY less body fat percentage), or my forearms. Hmmmmmm.....popeye?? popeye?? where are you and what the hell sort of diet do you follow?? ("Spinach", says popeye)

    c. I do not look good naked.

    So there. Blech.

    See, i have teensy-tiny wrists. Teensy-tiny ankles. Which means, I have LIGHT bones. No heavy-carrying bones for Beeps. Nopey.

    And, with my thin frame, it means that ALL of my jiggly parts are pure f*cking fat.

    FAT.

    Being skinny-fat is a lousy thing to be....don't ever let anyone tell you different.

    Oh, and having moles on your body, when you're skinny fat, also sucks. As do the stretch-marks that make me look like I had quite the ordeal with pregnancies (I didn't...)

    *kitten* you mother nature. You suck the big fat wanker, you do.

    ...and, I cannot even blame this on my:

    1. period (don't have it)

    2. kids (they aren't around - I'm at work)

    3. husband (he's actually very supportive of everything I try and do re: health and fitness)

    4. mother (she lives in another city and I haven't even talked to her this week)

    5. boss

    Well, okay, I *could* blame this on my boss. He's a f*cking *kitten*, too....just like mother nature....

    ....and start with some kind of FRESH MIND-SET.

    who says you cant reduce BF without reducing weight?

    Do you have a set of calipers? casue i do.. and i lost almost 2% BF and only lost .4 of a pound over the last month.

    so there

    :P its possible.

    Losing weight and losing body fat ( which is more likely to happen on a weights program than weight loss per say) are two TOTALLY different things.. i saw a site today i hope i can find it again..if i do i will repost it.. it was pictures of different people at different body fat percentages.. really interesting..

    Chin up Beeps!! You are rocking it!


    i havent changed sizes in anything either.. its a LOOOONG SLOOOOOW process... hang in there

    Oh Beeps. I am right there with you girl! Scale goes up by 7 lbs. in 8 weeks. Yeah, I know that's not all muscle and retention. Annoying!

    Thought this was cool - you can see what different bodies look like at different levels of BF%.
