    Here, I will contribute my pic, though I need to take a current one. The after was from this summer and it is a little over a year after the first. I have been taking my sweet time because I like to eat a lot of the food:

    Back, not flexed. I can see some moooscles!!:bigsmile:

    I have a long way to go, but I'm definitely getting less bulky.

    Worst photo ever, but my starting point:

    Okay...I am 10 weeks into the SL program. Current lifts are as follows

    Bench 95lbs
    Row 105lbs
    OHP 70lbs
    Squat 140lbs
    DL 180lbs

    I am 41(newly) I work a 40 hour week, am a mom, a wife and I eat between 1600-1800 a day (depends on how hungry I am)

    I am Soooooooooo supa bulky....in the first pic....:laugh:

    Pics are me before any exercise except walking, some Wii Dance and a 30 day squat challenage weight 178, Middle Pic is after 1 round of Jillian Michaels 30ds weight 175 (mind you I lost 9 inches) Last Pic is today after another round of JM and 10 weeks into SL weight 164.5 lbs...

    haha thanks all! its fun picking up heavy stuff... the bumper plates also make things look much cooler (but are pretty important for the olympic lifts) :)

    You look fan-freaking-tastic!!!

    Also, how do you edit the size of pics? I have had that problem but didn't know how to fix it.

    I edit it in photobucket took a few tries (don't replace original that doesn't work)
