It's not about the scale

I am guilty of it myself - basing my success on what the scales say. The one thing that has kept me going on the BFL has been the results of a stunning lady named Suzanne.


I hope she doesn't hate me for posting her pictures here but she has achieved an amazing transformation without losing ANY weight. Let me just say that again - she weighed the same in the left hand photo as she did in the right hand photo. It is hard to believe but the scales never fluctuated more than a couple of pounds throughout her whole twelve week challenge.

You can see her on the Body for LIFE Tracker and on the official BFL website.

So when you despair that you aren't losing weight, look at these photos and decide if it really matters after all ...

Thanks Suzanne - you are my inspiration.

    GO FOR YOU BABY!!!

    Scale weight does not matter!!

    I've lost 1.5 kilos over the last 5 weeks. Not startling really is it but I am thinner, have a lot more muscle on show and I feel great!

    Your doing great - keep going!!

  5. Katie, great stuff. This is so important. When will people get the fact the body composition counts for far more than weight. I just blogged on the dangers of following weight and BMI, body fat percentage comes first!
    That girl looks great in the second pic, what a difference, it's all that extra lean tissue. Thanks for getting the message out.Mark from http://www.MuscleHack.com

  8. That is freakin' incredible!! You are so right, weight is just a number and one that can have a number of guises. I am not aiming for someone to be able to lift me off the ground with ease, I want to be smaller.

    Hopefully Suzanne won't mind, but I have saved her photos for when I need a shot in the arm.

    You are both champs!
