Nobody is a better judge than yourself-
When I started this journey (almost a year ago) I had a lot of people saying that I did not need to improve my body a lot more than what I had already. My husband was trying to be cute and maybe they were all correct, its tricky when your are not obese…complacency has been my worst trait. But deep inside I envisioned a better, stronger and happier me. No one can judge you better than yourself, today I feel a lot happier with my body, facing my fears every time I take a progress picture had taught me a lot about committing to myself. It’s worth every sweat drop.
As far as the cellulite goes? well I’m counting the days when it will disappear, I’ll continue to do my two hard leg days per week. Get a butt that will make any girl get up from her behind and start molding it. Because that’s what happened to me, I was just browsing through and I saw a woman in this website that was not the prettiest or sexiest, just a woman that had the same starting body, who showed me that it could be done.

Nice job on your progress! we are our own best critics! and have to do it for ourselves first! But it is nice when others notice. When someone says "wow it looks like you work out" I know its working! But ultimately the mirror will be the only critic we believe!!

Here is a quote that I think is funny and applies to your blog…"A woman came up to me and said you are skinny, why do you need to go the the gym and workout? And I said I am skinny because I go to the gym and workout!" Do what makes YOU happy, congrats on your progress and keep up the good work.

"had a lot of people saying that I did not need to improve my body a lot more than what I had already."
I get that alot too, sometimes I think its people being nice, sometimes it’s maybe jealousy (ok I know that sounds big headed haha) and sometimes maybe it’s just ignorance. Like the people that say "oh you don’t need to watch what you eat as much because you’re already fit". Uhh eating healthy helped get me to where I am ty very much XD
I should take more progress pics really, they give me a kick up the butt when I feel lazy. My cellulite isn’t gone yet ether, trying to get better at squats as I figured that would help.
