Do you notice a difference? (pic)

edited December 2024 in Success Stories
It’s been very difficult to notice a difference in my appearance for the last few months. My progress has not been very successful as far as the scale can say! Posting this can hopefully help me notice the change in my appearance. This first photo was taken on 2/26/2012 and the second was taken today 6/23/2012. I am a work in progress. I started lifting weights roughly about 2 months ago, thanks to my lovely MFP’s they have really motivated me to stick with it!

    There is a definite difference! Your back is MUCH smoother. Keep up the great work...you're doing awesome! Start taking measurements, if you haven't already.

    Your back and arms look a lot more toned, IMO. So even if you're not losing as much as you'd like to, your body is definetely changing.

    We all can see a difference. I hope you can as well. No matter what we say, you have to see it. That is the only way you will appreciate your hard work. Good job!!
  • Absolutely! Your shoulders look more toned, your arms look smaller and your back has really toned up under the band of your bra. Great work!!

    I can really see a difference :smile:

    Yes! Your shoulders look awesome!
  • Posts: 824 Member
    definitely in the shoulder and armpit area. There seems to be more definition in the second pic (could be due to the bra covering it in the first)...and it looks like the bf% is just overall going down.

    I also can see a big difference. Your waist looks a lot smaller. Boy, just goes to show you that the scale sure doesn't tell the whole picture. Thanks for the reminder.

    You are getting some waist definition!
  • Posts: 261 Member
    Yup, really different, and much more toned in the second one--if you said it was two different people, I'd believe it.

    Yay!!! So glad to hear you're lifting weights. You've done a fantastic job!!! I too, have seen the most improvement in my back, kinda wish it was in other places too, but It does help to keep me going to see less back fat! Keep up the good work!!!
