Preparing to delve into bodybuilding

I am at 25.06% body fat from 38% and I am trying to get to 12 - 15% boyfat by Spring. It's time to kick some serious Telly ass.

Been lifting kinda heavy for me. I have been hitting some all time highs with 65 - 95lbs in the arms muscle groups.

Legs - 235lbs leg press

Squats - 100lbs (working on 155lbs)

As you can see by my pictures, I am not comfortable with anyone else taking my photos.

Short-term goal: Drop 15 - 20lbs by the first of the year

Long-term goal: Drop 10-15% in body fat

Long-term goal: Gain 5lbs of muscle

There is a shadow on my bicep, lol..in case you think it's muscle you see here. NOT!:speechles

totally stupid question... how can you tell you've gained 5 lbs of muscle vs 5 pounds of muscle/fat combo?

thx and you are looking AMAZING!!

They do the body fat % which calculates your current weight, waist size and age. Compared to my old bodyfat % number. So say I lose 10lbs and my waist is now a 24inches from 29 inches, my scale reads 125lbs..my height is 5ft 3... compared to before, it will show the difference and gain in muscle.

You look really great!!

YOU GO TELLY!!! AWESOME!!!

Damn girl, somebody's got some legs...Your ready to be in one of the rapper videos showing off your curves! LOL

You really look awesome and your my inspiration. I am really pumped about exercising again.

My friend is one of the finalyst in the BFL challenge, she is up to win $40k, between her and you - i'm ready to get back to the gym!
