fittandshitt: navel-gazer: “Muscle makes all the difference.” Just to answer a few of the questions I received in one swoop: yes, this is me; the first photo was taken about a month after I started working out with a personal trainer; the second photo is four months after I started with the trainer. I posted this on Reddit’s ProgressPics forum and got a big response from women who were discouraged about their exercise when it seemed like they weren’t losing any pounds. Thought sharing this on my blog might help some others. Building muscle is so important and makes a big difference in how I look and feel. I won’t even weigh myself anymore, but prefer to use visual references like this — there’s still plenty of room for improvement, but you can see that numbers aren’t all that matter. This is EXACTLY what’s going on with me. My weight hasn’t gone down, yet, my body is changing significantly. It is so refreshing to know that it is a norm and that the number on the scale ultimately doesn’t matter.
