Looks like we got a girl who ain't afraid to get naked in front of a camera!

All jokes aside, it looks like you are not far off. You do not distribute your fat in a typical female pattern. Your legs are lean, and your arms and upper back are very solid. Pay no attention to what the scale says as far as what you think you are supposed to weigh. So many women fall into that trap. A lot of stars and models lie about their weight, so it gives you a goal that's not even attainable.

I also have a feeling that you look a lot leaner in person than you do in pictures. Am I right?

Well I definately look a lot more muscular in person... lol I get a lot of guys coming up to me in the gym asking if I am getting ready for a competition..lol

But my legs definately need a TON of work. they don't have very much definition and my thighs are gross.. I also have cellulite on the back of my legs and bumb!! Which is a fairly recent addition to my body!! I can't stand it!! Oh well.. I'm a work in progress.

I generally weigh in between 186-196... I easily fluctuate between 8lbs during the day.. which is really depressing... I know.. I NEVER USED to weigh myself.. I actually never owned a scale before and in all honesty I don't really care how much I weigh I just really want to shed bf!!

BEING FEMALE, THIS IS TOTALLY NORMAL!!

So don't fret!! And don't weigh yourself so much....and actually scale weight is not really a valid measure of progress so to speak - as increased muscle + bf loss can = no scale weight change......Someone here once posted that they lost ONLY 2 pounds, yet dropped 4-6 pants sizes.....

Oh hell you're not a fat cow - I didn't see any cowbell in those pics so Stop that!

I'm familiar with slow results but the fat fairy didn't just drop the extra stuff off overnite and she won't come take it back all at once either.

You just have to pick off an oz or so at a time and give it back to her.

It's called fat-spam and I plan on sending her lots more!

Hey, J, listen to the lady.

Sometimes, it just takes time - slow and steady (= consistency) wins the race.

Thanks mermaid!!! You guys are soo grrrrrreeeaaattt here!!

 

[Jacqueline747]

Well I forgot to take my temperature this morning... Grrrrrrrrrr!!!
But on a good note... I went to the washroom like 3 times yesterday. And 3 times during the week. Much better than only 2x's per week.
191lbs this morning weight. ( I couldn't resist)
Going to do cardio this morning.. thinking of going for a bike ride!!

 

[Jacqueline747]

I am going to Merritt Mountain Music Fest for my holidays. I will be camping for a week and half.
When I come back from my holidays I am going to start a 40-30-30 or The Shadow Project. Maybe I will get more support if I stick to what you guys are doing. I WILL start doing morning cardio and weights after work!! I hope I will be able to control my cravings on a diet like that.
I know I can stick to anything as long as I am seeing results!!
So I think I will start a new log when I get back.

I will be taking Kelp and l-tyrosine and a multi as well as coral calcium and maybe some extra b vits
