~ I looked back at some measurements I took on April 25, 2011. I was at my lowest weight ever as an adult at the time, 150 lbs, and I was in the best shape I had ever been in because I was lifting weights in a cardio weight lifting class. I even took an underwear photo. It isn't a pretty photo, I guess some people never will look good naked, but it was the best ever for me. I don't even need to get down to 150 right now. I will be happy to get to 164 and I know that I can do it if I plan better and exercise more. Here are my old measurements from 7 years ago and the comparison with my measurements this past Monday.
* THEN* April 25, 2011*- Chest: 40; Biceps: 12.5; Waist: 34.5; Hips: 37.25: Thighs: L-21.5, R-21.25 **NOW** January 22, 2018*- Chest: 45; Biceps: L-13.5, R-14; Waist: 41@BButton; Hips: 43; Thighs: R-23, R-23 all measurements in inches
Well, that is quite a difference, and it motivates me to keep working out now and lifting the weights. The more muscle you have the faster you burn calories, right!?!
I don't want to be shaped like a soup can forever!
