Weight loss: Left Vs Right

G'day all..

I'm just looking for peoples experiences or thoughts on something I've noticed with me...

I'm losing weight MUCH more quickly on the left side of me than on the right.

My left shoulder, chest, arm and leg are noticably 'leaner' than my right.

The definition in the muscle I built up doing weights prior to my sleeving is much clearer on my left side.

In fact, the only place I'm not losing quicker on my left is facially...

On may face, the right hand side is less fat than the left.

Is anyone else having (or has had) a similar experience?

Do you now have a starboard list ?

Just kidding, man.

Which is your dominant hand ? Maybe that has something to do with it....more development on the dominant side ?????

@Dub Did you have to ask? The thought of what he might do with either hand makes me queasy.

You have a dirty mind, young lassie. I respect that about ya.

I'm smitten already :D

You must post up some sexy leg photos like @@Elode recently did. :P

Sure does liven things up around here and is a source of inspiration for those of us who are in the weight loss grind phase....

"Young?" Did you call me "young?" Men are so easy. I'm yours. Keep your glasses on and we'll get along famously. The only problem may be that, unlike Marlene Dietrich and @@Elode, I have no need to insure my legs. In fact I have to pay hush money to the insurance salesman to keep my dirty secret. Speaking of "dirty," it's not so much that my mind is such, it's more that some of your brethren are transparent. Speaking further of "dirty," is that what your phrase, "grind phase," is?

See ya 'round, Sailor.

Hmmm... I haven't noticed this happening to me.

Have you taken measurements to compare biceps? I would need numbers to say one side was smaller than the other! ????????

P.S. You, too, fella.

:rolleyes: ........I'd better wait a while before I post up my photos.

Folks may hurt themselves from laughing too hard.

I gotta lot more grinding to do before I'm ready for pic.

Damnitman.......That made me laugh too hard and remind me I'm still healing up. :lol: :lol: :lol:

On a serious note. I'm hoping for equal balancing as things......normalize. It'd be weird having a crooked appendage. I'd feel compelled to tug on it all time.....in hopes of straightening it out. :o
