Hello OL'ers!! I am somewhat embarassed to post my progress pics anywhere besides my journal, especially with the likes of you lovely ladies, but I am seriously having a really hard time seeing progress. Maybe I am too biased to really see myself. But I know my weight isn't changing, but is my body? If my BF% is dropping while my lean mass is increasing I am so alright with that...but I really want that to be why my weight hasn't moved. But 2.5lb in 6 weeks!! So here goes. This set is from January 29th...Thank you all in advance for any advice or opinions!!
Scale weight 147lb

Scale weight 144.8lb

I would say there is SIGNIFICANT changes from January!!!!! Good job. Goes to show that you can't judge anything with numbers on a scale.

I think you made great changes! Your waist and hips look smaller, your delts are coming in nicely, tummy is tighter, AND your legs are shaping up nicely! I think you're doing wonderful

I can see difference! You are definitely leaner! Good job!

Without a doubt you are leaner...your whole body is down in size and a lot tighter. The scale really means nothing.
I am honest when I give compliments and you have made some great progress.

Thank you ladies so so much!!
Without sounding desperate...does my gluteal area seem to be any perkier/rounder? It is a struggle for me...I've always had a flat, almost non-existent bottom and I would really like to bubble it up...I think I see a little difference, but I second guess myself thinking I want it so bad that I may be imagining things.

Most definitely there is a difference!

You are definitely making progress....Like I said in your journal, you back has really come along!!!

yes - a definate difference! Your whole body is tighter - Shoulders have def grown, hips and belly are slimmer and yeah, you're getting a booty -- in a good way. Keep it up, girl! I know we all pour over our progress pics and search for change - it's harder to see in ourselves. You're doing awesome - it is obvious in these pics!!
