Well, I finally completed Lou Schuler's book, The New Rules of Lifting for Women. I more or less followed it to a T, except I took a two month break in there somewhere (fell off the wagon temporarily). Wanted to show everyone how I have warped into a man with huge guns since I lift heavy weights. Warning ladies, this could happen to you too if you lift as heavy as you can (and eat clean of course)!

The first picture is my highest ever weigh -168 lbs vs. what I look like today -118 lbs (2.5 years). The rest of the pics are my before (143 lbs) and after of New Rules (I had lost some weight before starting the program).... from Feb. 2011 through today.

I am 5' 5.5" tall.

    No...if you used Photobucket you can go back and make it smaller.

    I had never heard of this book before today, but I've seen alot of people talking about it.

    I might have to get it, but I unfortunately dont have access to a gym where I can lift. I only have 5 pounds and resistance bands at home :(

    In any case you look great!

    Great work! Yes, all women should be afraid of these bulky looking man muscles you have ;)

    You're a good example for all those uninformed out there.
