I have only lost 3 pounds between these two pictures, but the difference seems so much more to me. I am doing StrongLifts, so I know that I'm gaining muscle. I also do Taekwondo 3 times a week.

    Only 3lbs difference?? Perfect example of why we shouldn't always rely on the scale to track our progress! Excellent work!

    That is a great result! I agree with andreamaym - we need to track our progress in ways other than the scale; like photos and a tape measure. You clearly have changed quite a bit! Congrats :smile:

    That's great. You ARE burning fat, the muscle you are building weights more so as you lift your actual weight might not change much but the fat is going down! :)

    You look great and great motivation to people like me.... it looks like you have a tiny waist under the remaining fat... you really don't have too far to go. Nice!
