Might help someone to better understand the differences. One has more muscle, or better conditioned muscle then the other photo. Note the 10 pounds weight difference, yet the heavier weight is "smaller" and tighter.

(edited to add,- sorry to confuse everyone - this is not me in this photo)

    That is inspiring! I love how you look toned and went up in weight! Just goes to show that you can't always go by the scale! (hope more people will realize that too from this! :)

    sorry to confuse! This in not me. :)

    I grabbed it online at pinterest.com





    ......................... But I do look hot - thanks - LOL


    I will add though, personally, I am 10 lbs scale heavier now, then I was before at this same smaller "clothing size" I am now (8/10). So my experience is like those of the girl in the photo.

    But I have better tightness, definition etc, (then I did in the past in the skinny fat place)

    Excellent. Great work, and thank you for posting this. A perfect example of an important concept. Great illustration of why BMI is not accurate for active people.

    Edit: haha, just saw this isn't you. Well, it's still a great post!

    I remember a similar pic on the wall of my high school weight room. Love how clearly it illustrates the difference. Thank you for sharing.

    Nice! This is pretty much why I pay very little attention to my scale.
