cried.

Not NEARLY as impressive as I would have liked, but I am trying to remember
that muscle weighs more than fat. I had a LOT
of fat that has been replaced by muscle - I can flex my arms and it's not just
fat! I can feel my abs (under the fat) when I flex them.
Also - The BMI Calculator just goes by the measurements...It doesn't take the muscle into account so it's kind of faulty for a fat person.
Overall, I'm really happy...I really am. I think I'm doing it RIGHT this time and building muscle to replace the fat and that's why I'm not losing as much. Just keeping in mind how my breathing is going - I can TELL the difference - And that's DAMN good.
Still can't tell the difference in my clothes and people that see me everyday might not be able to tell, but I bet my parents will be able to tell when I see them next. :)
