    Thank you so much for posting this. I have been working out for 3 weeks and although the number on the scale is barely moving, I have noticed my clothes don't fit as snug and even in the mirror by body is looking smaller. I take two 1 hour body sculpting in addition to 2 muscle toning/cardio classes per week. These picts really make me feel better about myself and what I am starting to see as an accomplishment.

    I started Feb. 2, and though I don't think the changes would be that noticeable in pics, stuff is starting to change. I really enjoy the lifting.

    So who is the girl in the black bikini? I want to know what she did to get her *kitten* to look like that!
    If I had to guess I'd say deep squats, deadlifts and maybe lunges.

    thanks for posting! I've been slowly putting on weight as I'm lifting. I *know* it's ok, but you know...sometimes..it's still hard when you see the numbers going up.

    Thanks!!!!

    ps. my bum looks so much better thanks to Squats!

    Another great post! Love seeing the great examples- worth a million words :)

    I wish MFP would implement a body fat ticker instead of weight- or even 'inches lost'.
    Inches would be good, but chasing after body fat % numbers is not very productive, in my opinion(given the inherent lack of accuracy and the fact that the bottom line is how you really look).

    How about a Ticker for when you have hit your goal weight and are trying to put on mass? Now that would be nice!

    This suggestion has been posted, and Steven said they are working on it (not sure why it's hard, I don't know much about codes but really...)

    I don't get the whole women with muscles thing.. sorry, it turns me right off :-/ Shapely is lovely but muscles are just not womanly. That tight round butt i would kill for, but can you get that without the rest following?
