DO I LOOK BULKY TO YOU???

Don't lift weights they said..you'll bulk up they said..well guess what...THEY LIED! Cardio queen..treadmill rat..elliptical junkie..yeah that was me. Hi my name is Caitlin and I was a former cardio addict. But when are stuck in a huge rut..you do your research. When you hit that wall you know changes have to be made. Plateaus are made to be broken. You do whatever the heck it takes to smash through the roadblocks and keep your car on the road. For me that was my workout routine. I was tired of fitness classes at the gym..tired of my workout dvd's at home..tired of that stupid treadmill that had every one of my hopes and dreams wrapped around it and it failed me. It failed me to continue my success and I knew I was going to quit. Once it gets boring I'm no longer interested. Weight loss gets boring..tedious as hell frankly..we all get impatient and look for that quick fix. When it doesn't come we feel dejected then choose to quit. I REF-- USE TO QUIT.

So I ignored what many said and decided to go to weights..throwing away every cardio routine in the trash and started to prepare for something bigger. I'm here to tell you to ignore what people say about weight lifting and women's bodies because its not true!!! I am living proof of that!!

The photos you are looking at above the before pics were taken in December 2013 and the after pics are from this past weekend July 2014. Pounds lost in the photos..ONE POUND. Do you get me? Size difference?? Black and white dress was a size 10..the dress I wore this weekend was a size 4. Thank you come again!! Enough obsessing over the scale..obsession of any kind is completely unhealthy and unrealistic. So ditch that crap and pick up weights instead!!!!!
