You look awesome, and you are correct that the scale lies especially when it comes to weightlifting. Keep up the amazing work - I am trying to do better when it comes to strength training, but I get disappointed with such a small burn. I need to get past that.0

Your the same height as me and this encourages me, since I increased my weights and upped my calories I got heavier too but I still look skinny ..but now I have muscles popping up all over the place!! :flowerforyou: awesome job you look wonderful!0

I'm so glad you posted! I'm finally getting around to starting NROLW and I know the program will work well. I've never been afraid of muscles and I like when people can tell I'm lifting but I'm not 'overdone'. Your description of calorie intake was very helpful and I find it really encouraging to see what you weigh at 2 inches shorter than me - it helps because I'll be less dismayed when the scale does stop moving. Even if you know it's okay to have smaller movements on the scale because of loss of body fat it helps to picture the end result in someone else.
I was wondering if you still run at all? I've never been able to run more than a minute until I did C25K last year. I stopped for almost a year, restarted, and ran/walked my first 5K Saturday. I really am coming to enjoy the satisfaction of running and I'd like to keep doing it two days a week. Do you think it will set back my progress much?
Thanks again for posting!0 -

Thanks!
I still love running.It's been 100 degrees here recently though and I'm not a fan of running in the heat. But once it cools down, I will probably start back up again. I just no longer do 10-milers on a regular basis. I like my little 3-5 miles jaunts.
I don't think running will set back your progress. Just listen to your body and have fun! If you haven't checked out the NROL4W group on here, they are fabulous, as well.0
