starsapart Posted January 19, 2015 Report Share Posted January 19, 2015 People tell me "you're getting so skinny" all the time lately, and I just thank them and move on, because I don't want to be rude, but I also have no desire to be "skinny." That brings up images in my mind of knobby knees, protruding ribs, and frail arms. That's not me. Well, today, a fellow gym regular approached me and said, "Maaya, you are getting really strong!" Cue me grinning ear to ear. Yes, yes I am!!!!!! I may only have 4 reps on my 170lb deadlift before I max out, but damn if that comment didn't make me feel like Superwoman. I used to have trouble lifting a pair of 10 pound dumbbells. Now I'm one of the few women holding her own in the weight room. Yay, mini woot! 10 Quote 🎪current challenge🎪 challenge archive: 19 | 18 | 17 | 16 | 15 | 14 | 13 | 12 | 11 | 10 | 9 | 8 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 instagram | goodreads "Let us read, and let us dance; these two amusements will never do any harm to the world." - Voltaire Link to comment
