    Wow, who would have "thunk" that 200 pounds can look SOOOOO differently in the same person.
    Oh, you look great, by the way.

    That is awesome! Love seeing the incredible body changes, while your weight stayed the same. I'm to the point where I say "screw the scale" and am only focusing on lifting and body fat. Great job and thanks for sharing!!

    Yup, people worry too much about the scale and numbers when in reality it's body composition that matters most.
    When your 50 lbs over weight ain't no body composition in the world going to look good. Gotta get that fat off so that muscle can be built.

    Whether you believe muscle burns 6 calories or 60 doesn't change the fact that strength training is incredibly important for losing fat and keeping your body strong and healthy. Just some of the benefits include:
    •Increased after burn - High intensity strength training can actually help you burn extra calories for hours after your workout
    •Prevents loss of lean body mass that happens from dieting and/or aging
    •Burning calories - While strength training doesn't burn as many calories in one sitting as cardio, it does contribute to your overall calorie expenditure
    •Changes your body composition, which helps shape your body and keep you healthy
    •Strengthens bones and connective tissue along with muscles
    •Keeps you strong and active as you get older
    •Improves coordination, balance and may help prevent injuries

    The bottom line is, strength training is important for almost any fitness goal, whether you want to lose fat, gain muscle or just get in better condition. (Copied from Ask.com since I didn't feel like typing my own response re: benefits of weight training).

    Nice job. Love how different the 200 lbs looks now.

    Thanks for this piece of advice. That is me...my scale is moving very slow however my clothes are fitting different. Some times seeing something like this puts it all in perspective.

    Very well done and very impressive that you are still on the same weight. I hope more people see this to help them understand how much of a difference weight lifting can make.
