Progress is progress no matter how small

Somedays I feel like my body isn't changing, I'm not seeing results, and get so frustrated.... And then I take progress pictures and realize how much my body really has changed, the weight didn't show up overnight so I can't expect it to come off overnight, on top of that I'm building muscle because I don't want to just be skinny/fat, I want to be ripped and strong. 

That's 2 1/2 years difference, in the picture I took today I wasn't flexing, I did put some weight onto my arm but the muscle is finally starting to show on it's own. I cannot say how excited I am for my arms to lose that flab and fat. 

My biggest tip and it makes people laugh hearing it from me, is don't be afraid to lift! I used to say I wouldn't lift because I would look "bulky" but that was just my lazy excuse.
