10 month Progress

[trivial]

Ok, new pics as promised. I put them in my log, but since I rarely update it, no one (but crofty) will see it in there, lol.

Thank you,

Actually, with the exception of the last month, I was just getting back to the gym after a long layoff so I just lifted heavy stuff and ate mostly right without being too particular.

Now I am actually in prep for a figure contest so I am cutting to get my BF low enough.

Your legs look 10x better! You added a good amount of size to them and your arm looks more defined.

Good work! Keep it up!

[Slo Mo]

your looking great

The last two pics in teh jean skirt and red shorts.....mmmmm hmmm. That's all I have to say.

[BIGBUCK$]

hows the rear?
=x

[trivial]

Lol. I have a more recent jean pic in my log, but I did take a new one today and I will put it up later.

[BIG SMT]

Awesome progress! Keep it up!

[Tweak]

Nice work, chicky-- keep it up!

[claire]

Great progress. You definitely added muscle to your legs and arms :)

[warmpain]

Some really great progress and results, looking really nice!

[trivial]

Thank you guys...

I might have to take a new leg pic today though, I am realizing that since the last leg pic was taken at a slightly different angle than the others, so it looks like I put a ton of muscle on in my legs in a month. Actually, there is some new quad growth, but the pic makes it look like my upper legs are huge, and they aren't, lol. I'll see what I can do about making a more accurate comparison pic, since I intend to keep updating this as I work my way to the comp.

[DjEclipse]

Your legs look so much better now.

[dubdubs]

looking tight woman... :partydots:

and I can dig the tan... SWEET

[bigsix]

Everything is looking great! Especially big difference in the legs, great work!

[Auzzie]

Great progress.. well done.

[buzz]

very impressive, especially in the leg development.

[kook]

Nice work trivial! big difference there, looks like muscle gained and leaned out, good luck prepping for this comp.

[trivial]

Wow, you are gifted BMJ. You posted that four hours from now!

;)

Lol.

[*Bunny*]

go triv!!!!!

[*Bunny*]

[MR. BMJ]

Awesome progress:)

BMJ
:bmj:

[trivial]

Thank you guys for the compliments. Most that progress (with the exception of the last couple months) was just playing around and getting back into things. Now I am hitting it hard, harder each day, and I can't wait to see what I am gonna look like all leaned out.

[Big Sky Guy]

Nice! Definite improvements being made!

[trivial]

Ok so I have been being told numerous times to show full body pics. I am nervous to do it, but having seen what my one year ago pics look like compared to now, well, ok, I've done better than I thought I had :).

Here is a comparison of when I joined you guys a year ago (keep in mind I came off a rough pregnancy with bedrest, and then stopped training for a couple years following) and what I look like today. Sorry the current pics are blury, hubby is asleep, so I had to try and get them in the mirror best as I could.

Thank you. I actually am gonna put some new pics of my quads up soon. This weeks weight loss is showing me the muscle I have, and it's not really been shown well in pics yet. I am loving seeing changes every few days!

[bgriff]

WHOOOOTTTTT Damn hottie can I have your number heh heh heh

[trivial]

WHOOOOTTTTT Damn hottie can I have your number heh heh heh

Aww... :kiss:

[Sarge]

AWESOME Progress!!! You look like a totally different person.. way to stay dedicated and motivated! It's always worth the effort :D

[trivial]

More progress pics. I'm still not looking like a figure competitor, but I'm shaving this fluffy stuff off me slowly but surely ;).

[Tweak]

Nice progress, Triv! Looks like your waist and legs have both leaned out. :cheer: Keep it up!

Also your bedroom always looks impeccably clean and put together. lol

[IliekFude]

keep it up triv, def got a bright future ahead of ya.
nice work.

[humble]

Looking good.

[trivial]

I updated the pic with the bodyfat measurements taken this morning. Two more percent gone :D.

[Big Sky's Bride]

Wow! You have made amazing progress! Great job!

[trivial]

Thank you.... :D. I got pinched at 15.85% BF this morning. I think it's a bit low in actuality, I think I am higher, but at least we know that everything is going down so progress is being made! I'll take some new progress pics today and get them up.

[*Bunny*]

You got me beat!!

WOW

Lean Mass 156.52

thats impressive

GO TRIV!!

Now I am NOT talking away from your progress, but I 10 lbs of LMB in a little over 2 months is a bit lofty.

Well, you are super woman...

It is, I am well understanding that the majority of that is muscle memory. I'm getting back what I had before years ago :).

But still, the numbers are an estimation, I think I'm higher bf which would mean lower LM, but no deal. I have the time to get where I need to be.

Fantastic.

"I have the time to get where I need to be." Plenty, and then some.

[Ulter]

I wouldn't get caught up in the numbers either. You don't go on stage for figure and have them take your bf measurement. They go by what you should go by, how you look without clothes. I think you probably put on closer to 5 pounds than 10 pounds of LBM just from looking at you in clothes.

I'd agree, but still damn good progress so I am happy. Actually, if the numbers change negatively when he measures in a couple of weeks (like I kind of expect), I won't be suprised.

I'm gonna put new non-clothed (well, bikini) pics in my log today. I think the numbers look better than I do, but I am still gonna get there and be ready for the stage no matter what it takes :).

[Raina]

At least you're not 32% like poor Tweak. lol

Nice work!

[trivial]

LOL!!! Yeah no kidding. Actually, looking at her pics, I think she's lower BF than me, I think if I was dunked I'd still be AT LEAST 18%. But who knows. :)

I think it was the jager bombs and you're just dehydrated...

Actually you are doing great!!! keep up the great work...

Yeah, I told my trainer about them so he had all the info.

Plus since I've had babies and my skin is loser than I'd like, I'm not sure how accurate the caliper measurements can be on me. As long as I am ready by sept, I don't care what the numbers say.... :D.

[Ivanko]

good work keep it up you are nearly there

I think your progress is awesome and you should be happy. I just noticed that a lot of focus in some of the threads recently have been on bf%. I wanted to point out that it's a useless statistic. First because it's inaccurate and second because any water gain negates it completely. It's fine, as long as you're not taking it as a measure of your progress instead of the mirror.
I was making my point on your thread, not singling you out. :kiss:

;) Eh, I didn't feel singled out.

I'm not stuck on the numbers, but when I see them moving it does make me happy. The mirror can lie to me, make me focus on little flaws and lose site of the whole package. But my favorite - my clothes never lie. The get loose, I am doing well. And I just bought my first medium clothes in years....that is a huge deal to me. At my height, medium is exciting!

Next time I see you guys, I'll bring the bikini and get a first hand opinion. 15% just can't be right, lol....but I am getting closer to my goal look every week. (I also want t-cake to check out my loose skin :(, I hope it will shrink back up and not make me have to have surgery....)
