    You are AMAZING!!! Throw out that damn scale and start using your tape measure, because you have lost SO much fat and inches, you look gorgeous!

    Your skin actually glows now too - it's amazing what clean eating and exercise does!

    You are looking amazing! I completely understand your feelings and had a post similar to this one talking about how I would have quit if it had not been for pictures. I recommend that everyone take pics! Even if you've already started, even if you hate how you look in them (especially if you hate it, ha), DO IT! My profile pic is a 4 lb difference that I was letting (and still let) frustrate me.

    The scale does not tell the whole story!

    I am also on Instagram! Love the fitness community on there. I'm going to follow your journey; please follow back: @csuperstar02

    Keep up the good work!

    Agreed!

    Congratulations on your loss! Forget that scale because it doesn't decipher between muscle, fluids, and fat. I REFUSE to get on a scale...my clothes tell the story. Your pictures clearly state your scale is a re-re trying to throw you down! You look great! Don't get discouraged and best of luck ( :

    That's awesome! Stay positive and stay off the scale. It does nothing but make me depressed.

    Looking real good. I know what you mean about the scale. Mines is showing a gain today and I'm like you feeling like WTH??? But your pics helped me too. Keep up the good work it shows.

    Pictures and measurements are the way to go. You can't always rely solely on the scale. You are looking great. Be proud of every pound.. not just the big ones. :)

    WOW!!! This pic just brought me to tears :sad: ..... I was getting so frustrated and discouraged because I have been eating clean and working out for MONTHS and have only lost 5 stinking pounds :mad: ... Even the fact that I use to wear a size 2XL shirt and I just bought a Juniors XL shirt Saturday didn't help with the improvement of my self esteem. It wasn't until I did the pic stitch that I've noticed how much I've really lost. I am SOOOOOO happy IDK what to do with myself:bigsmile: .... I still have a long way to go, but I am happy that I can SEE that my hard work is not just a waste of time... The pic on the left is from mid June... The pic on the right is from today 7/31/12 ... Still only 5 lbs lost but it's clear the fat is melting away...

    :glasses: Failure is NOT an option! :bigsmile:
