Do you lift heavy? Are you bulky?

<---- I don't think I'm bulky. I still have weight to lose (especially around my midsection), but I'm getting there. I'm at work, so I can't post a full on picture.
Here's what I'm lifting:
Squat - 155lbs
Deadlift - 150lbs
Bench - 95lbs
Row - 65lbs
OHP - 65lbs
Edit to say that I'm 5'6" and I weigh 183. I wear a size 10/12 pants.
Here's testament right here. Does she "look" like she weighs 183 lbs? At 5'6"? I have a friend who doesn't lift who weighs this who obviously doesn't look half as good.
Not to mention- when was the last time anyone heard a woman who lifts heavy say she regrets it?!?!?

^^THIS! I don't "lift heavy" persay but I lift and am working on the getting to heavy part. BUT I can say that the last time my *kitten* was in a size 8 I was shorter and lighter than I am currently. Shorter by about an inch and lighter by about 20lbs. The other thing is there was not one spot of my clothing that was LOOSE then either... I will NEVER regret deciding to start lifting weights.0 -

I lift heavy..I teach Group Power and it introduced me more to lifting and currently doing the Jamie Eason Program that has really changed my body to the max and encourage me to go heavy...Leg Press- 175 highest, .Squat- 120-130 3x8 etc...she has me doing heaviest to failure and I LOVE IT....almost like burn out!! :bigsmile: :bigsmile: It makes me feel strong...
I don't feel bucky if anything maybe more toned I think it is in learning and knowing your body....
