feeling kind of discouraged about the scale- gaining muscle and not seeing the scale go down is hard!

    because you're 5'8'', I'm giong to say 138. You're looking good. Why the guessing game?

    140 but mainly because you're 5'8". Great work on the shoulders and lats.

    I would like to see how other people perceive how I look!
    I know how much I weigh, but I know I still see myself at my highest weight and no muscle in my head.
    when I look at pictures of myself subjectively I think " that person is in good shape" when I put "me" back into the equation, I start picking out everything that's wrong

    I'm gonna say around 150 because you're tall & pretty fit.

    Well, since you are taller and more muscular than me, with similar visible fat, and I weigh 139, I'll guess close to 150. You look great, though.

    The mirror tells me something totally different than what photographs do. I feel like my arms are skinny, my legs are too lanky and then I see a photo of me with other people and it hits me how much bigger I am than most people. One on one in the mirror there's nothing to relate to and it's easy to go negative.

    I was going to guess in this neighborhood as well. I was thinking 165ish

    You could even weigh more, since you have lots of muscle definition. You look great..the scale doesn't matter.

    It shouldn't be depressing. You are a good weight for a fit female at your height. Your composition will continue to improve as you get more fit and, like you said, the scale may not reflect that too much,

    Great job.

    I'm betting you look much smaller in person than you do in the picture. I've found that to be true with me when I've posted pics in the past. You look great...keep doing what you're doing.

    Why are you worried about a number? That is a good weight for someone who is 5'8. You look amazing, your muscles are gorgeous.

    I would be *SO* happy to look like you.

    I'm guessing 145 ish but only because you're tall and have awesome lady muscles! I think you're gorgeous and healthy looking!

    Glad I didn't read the spoiler first! I was pretty close. :) And I maintain that you look awesome!

    Definitely, that is a fairly low weight for someone her height. I'm guessing it didn't make her happy that many of us guessed higher. But its really hard to judge by a picture and I think we guessed higher because of her muscular development, so that's a good thing!
