I had a long day at work today (yes, I work Saturdays, I do hair) and when I got home and sat down I reached up to rub my neck and under my neck, where my upper part of my back is and....wait for it......it was HARD!

I used to feel flabby fatty skin when I did that. I have always done that for many years because it tends to ease the stress on my neck, so at the end of a long day I always do that and lo and behold there is now muscle there in place of the flab! I even tried to pinch it to see if I could get ANY flab to pinch between my fingers and I COULDN'T! I have a nice toned back with no flab!

My waist and tummy have a little catching up to do, but it sure is nice to know that my work is paying off.

I'm so happy.

    Thank you! I lift weights and exercise five days a week and it is really starting to show. My profile pic is my before picture. It was actually taken last October. I started my weight loss journey in January. But I don't want to post after pics yet because I am still at it. But it sure does feel good. I got discouraged at first because I was working so hard and didn't lose anything my first month. But I kept at it and it is finally showing. Patience is key.

    I started in January too, still just walking though. I can't afford a Gym membership as of yet! I hope to be able to soon! I hope I get your wonderful results. I look forward to seeing your results!
