Hello everyone!
Upon urging from a few of my MFPs here, I'm posting the below picture. The photo on the left is from Jan 1st when I weighed 202lbs - the photo on the right is from this morning when I weighed 203lbs. Since January, I've done P90X and I'm finishing up month 1 of Insanity.
Just goes to show your body can change and the scale won't show it ONE BIT. If I didn't take photos and measurements, I would surely be insane by now.
IGNORE THE TORTURE DEVICE aka the scale!!

Thanks for sharing!0 -
Wow, I needed that. I've been relying on the scale WAY too much!
You look fantastic0 -
Thank you!!
annahiven - my scale stopped moving last October, but my body has continued to change. It doesn't keep me from stepping on the scale - but it does help me keep in check that the scale isn't the ONLY way to measure progress. Inches and photos are much much better in my opinion!0 -
I'm so glad you posted this!! I recently started P90X and I have been wondering how much my body will change, even if the scale doesn't. (Because of the new muscles I am building) Thanks for posting! And you look great!0
