Okay,
Lets see if I can do this right. Now im gonna place a couple of before then a couple after. I personally dont see a big difference
but everyone says they can see it. Here it goes.
if you look at this picture I am wearing the same exact jeans in my " today" pics

another before picture.
This was right when I was at my biggest I believe. Take a look at the mid section I was coming out over the top LOL. If you can see it I know that it is small

There's no question that there's a substantial differential. Way to go! Keep that nutrition plan tweaked!

[Amkey]

Thank you!
I will I can not give up now

[AARS]

I'm sorry, but if you cant see the difference in those photos you need new glasses. You are on the right track. Keep it up and don't try to rush it.

[Amkey]

Thanks AARS!
I am real hard on myself and I am trying to get myself out of that habit with the help of friends. I get very impatient. I want to look awesome now and then i get discouraged because I look at myself and say that I look exactly the same and all im doing is not working. I do not give up though. It helps that not only my friends say they notice. My friend caught me in the mirror the other day looking at my thighs and stomach and pulling and pushing at fat and pulling at my pants, and then she made me quit and told me that it will come in time because i started getting mad LOL

Again thanks

The same thing happens to me sometimes, but I have been making progress since I started doing this, and it's been constant (with minor set backs), but in average I have only improved, I know that if I quit and start living the way I was before I'll go back to the body I had in two weeks, but one thing I know, I learn way more about my body and nutrition then I ever thought I would, so even if I stop working out or something, there's no way I'd go back to my old eating habits and routine because I know what's going on with my body, how much of the meal I'm about to have will be stored as fat, etc. so preatty much there's no way back, it's a one way street and the more I learn and talk to people here the more motivated I get, you know that because you're probably going thru the same process, you see that your clothes are fitting better, you start to see muscles the weren't there before, you have more energy, etc.
It takes time and I learned to accept that, I know that six month from now I'll be looking much better and I really get anctious to see myself in a better body, but I know that if I slow down or stop training it'll just get worse and six months from now I won't have a six pack that I would probably have If I hadn't stopped training, that helps me to keep focussed and motivated.
So hang in there cuz it only get's better.

PS, I guess that was my longest post...

Okay,
I am posting some new updated pics. I have seen some serious changes now that I look at different pictures. It has been several months and close to 60 lbs later. I am trying to loose the body fat right now for more definition. Feedback is always welcome.
Amk

okay I see these pictures are crappy! but I cant make them any bigger. so this one im trying to show the little bit of muscle growth in my abs

[cursor]

Great work Amkey! 60 lbs represents some serious commitment. Do you have a timer on that camera (and/or a tripod)? If the flash is not in the picture your results (the picture's) will be more clear.

[Amkey]

okay I am going to try again tonight to take those pics because I want everyone to be able to see my collarbone muscles and my armpit muscles LOLOLOL! okay I know that sounds bad but I dont know what those muscles are called
Amk

[Merrida]

Ditto Amk, looking forward to more pics. Good job so far. Good work on the obliques, and nice bi's (no pun intended! heh)

Striker, nice job. You look ripped. Good definition.

[Amkey]

Merrida,
LOL you so meant that to be a pun LOL. Wow those comments made me feel pretty good and ya'll can't even see the pic real good. Okay I left my camera at work by accident so I will do it tonight.
