I never judge the changes by scale. its the mirror that always makes the difference IMO.But…… like George Straight says that damned ol mirror don’t always tell the whole truth lol I honestly try and stay away from looking in the mirror cuz I got body dysmorphia as it is

This is why I never step on a scale. I developed such a unhealthy relationship with the scale. Now its mirror and pictures only.

Exactly, the mirror is my best friend... I have 3 of them in my bedroom alone. As you can see in all the pics I post. I tried to put up another... but she wasn't having it!
And yeah like I said she only gained like 6lbs. I thought it would be more dramatic than that... but it was a lean 6lbs.
The only thing I really noticed from her while on anavar was her energy levels. Neither of us are morning people. And since December I've been laid off, and she works from home. So for the past 3 months... we didn't really have reasons to hop out of bed. But while she was on cycle.. this bitch just popped up ready to concur the day! And she really put the work in during our workouts.

I feel that! Trust me I do. If I miss 1 single day of working out I feel like I lost 25lbs of muscle.
But... when I started lifting again my only concern was my weight. The heavier I got the better I felt, the stronger I felt. I was weighing myself every day. If I lost a pound... I would physically feel weaker and spend the next day just eating and eating. My workouts would suffer because I was only worried about my weight. I finally got to 187lbs... my dream goal is 195-200lb. So in my head... I was so fucking close. Then my girl said "you looking kinda fat"
What? Me? Fat? I don't get fat! So I took pictures and went back and compared. I didn't look fat... but I was definitely puffy and washed out looking. Looking back I can't believe I walked around without a shirt on looking like that. But in my head.. I'm heavy so I look good.
So here's me at my heaviest 187lb... 8lbs away from where I thought I wanted to be. And where I am now about 175lb (give or take)
I'm a solid 10lbs lighter. But look way fucking better.
This is why I don't fuck with the scale anymore
