Thanks, Grandma.
This one? I don't remember. Looks like 380 or 385. The best I've pulled in competition is 385.6 -
Hey, my "bulky" journey is from anorexia/bulimia to a healthy weight.:) Although my mother worries that I'll turn into a man and no one will marry me, but well... I love it, lifting has saved my life
(unfortunately, I'm not kidding, we had some fights about lifting and my bulkiness haha)
that's in 2015, when I was a "full time" bulimic, occasionally I would try to exercise with an attempt to lose weight because I still considered myself fat
in 2016, my very first days of ED recovery, since then I have barely missed more than 3 days of gym, but still I was mostly doing cardio (10 km a day etc.)
2017 - started to lift
2019 April - took me some time to figure out all this weigh-lifting stuff, but finally I've started to see some results - here I had around 16 kilos more than in the first picture (now I'm slightly cutting for summer hah)
oops, sorry for such a long post, but I wanted to share it with someone who can actually appreciate it
HELL YES SISTER!21 -

Very nice definition!0 -
Love this thread! All of the ladies in here are so inspirational and I'm looking forward to getting back on the lifting wagon! I was doing really well two falls ago following strong lifts and I really started to notice a difference, people were commenting on it and then I stopped (can't quite remember why now...) and have been on and off since. I just started back in uni and noticed my eating habits were deteriorating again. I refuse to do the freshman 15 AGAIN especially when I never fully got rid of it last time!
So back to MFP for me, with logging and lifting and all the fun stuff!5 -
