Without the progress photos I would not be able to see how dramatic the changes I am making show nor would I be able to push myself that much harder at the gym and throw in extra workouts.
We ourselves know how hard we push in our workouts and only we know how much more we can give. So when I see my pics I think hmm I had a little more to give, so I dont fear pushing it that much harder at the gym. I know it will show in my photos and the progression of weights I am lifting.
Yet I do fear the occasional smirk at the gym from some of the guys - I always think are they laughing at me? gawd...most days my strong woman comes out on my shoulder and yells in my ear "who the F cares ya big B move it! Push that weight move move move!!!" Plus I think of all of you here on the board and all the encouraging words we have given each other.
