There is a difference of 3 pounds between these two pictures. The first was in July, the second was Saturday.

    Since July I've done Insanity once. I go to the gym 4-5 times a week. I do about 40 minutes cardio followed by weight machines/free weights.

    This makes me feel so much better :) I was thinking I looked good, and then hopped on the scale and it went up T_T was so disappointed and I suddenly didn't think I looked so good anymore and started hiding under a blanket and reading MFP. This is making me get out of my cacoon and go work out!

    My deepest thanks! :)
    I can't express how much better i feel <3

    Wow! Thanks so much for posting. My reliance on the scale sometimes overshadows my progress:/ good to see/hear an encouraging word:)

    wow, congratulations. You look fantastic. And this is exactly why I don't own a scale.
    I own a tape measure, lol.

    That gives me hope! I've lost about 6lbs in 20 days and I've been at the gym and tracking my food. I feel like the scale should be moving more but my clothes are looser and I feel better so.....your pics are inspiring.

    Hey
    Thanks for sharing. Wow you look great. I am beginning not to worry about the scale and continue to workout and continue to lose inches. This is definitely what it looks like you have done. Good job!
