There is something about that sentence, that every time I read it, I have to laugh....  and while I see the connection, going by that picture you look less Kevin James and more The Mountain, from Game of Thrones.

The guy who plays the Mountain is an Icelandic Strongman and that dude is a beast. Man I would love to be as strong as that guy. For awhile all I concentrated on was power lifting. I grew up on a farm so I already had that farm kid strength, plus fat kid strength, so I thought I would be pretty good at it.

And I can read 'flexing at the candy shop' without putting it to the 50 cent 'song'

This is essentially why I joined this website.

The strongman thing is why I know who he is. When I read how big he was, I definitely understood the nickname...

 

And yeah, farm kid strength is weird... super powerful for their size.

I always felt like Lenny from of Mice and Men. "I just wanted to pet the bunny, George..."

I have practically no waist due to my body type (tend to hold onto fat in my stomach the longest rather than in hips/thighs) and having had a baby (skin roll/flap/apron, lovely.) I feel like my midsection is disproportionately large in comparison with my arms/legs. I'm good from my belly button up and my legs down but when I think of myself as a whole, I think I look like a potato person.

 

 

 

You say potato. PotatoPeopleandEmily043_zps059d3c8b.jpg   I say potahto.   Nov2014a_zpsf0305699.jpg

 

2016 goals: Hit goal weight. Build muscle.

2015 goals: Get stronger, stop loathing squats and get better at them - DONE!!!

2014 goal: Lose 52.5 lbs. - DONE!!! 12/13/14

Ok, so I get that we can't see your waist and can't be sure of what's underneath that tee, but can I just say "Damn girl!!!!"

LOL, I immediately thought it was the Scottish version of Shortgorilla, and that is a good thing!

Hahaha! Yeah, that was my first thought too!

Aw, thank you, you're sweet. I'll admit that I am thrilled to have come a long way in the past year. I keep reminding myself to look at the big picture rather than focus on the one thing that bugs me.

I feel I connect with a potato sometimes.

 

I have no clue what/who I look like

Hopefully works. Don't mind the mess. Just been getting rid of stuff.

 

Also, you can hardly see the twin burns. Hooray.

You look like someone, I just can't place it.... and it's gonna bug me.

 

Kaelvan, you look beautiful!

Agreed... :-)

Thank god no one can see me batting my lashes while reading the comments about my picture.

 

Funny how actually looking at a picture of what I look like, I just finally realize how much weight I did lose.

Pretty darn close if you ask me. Now all we need to do is find Kaelvan a pink bikini...

Haven't wore bikini since I was a 11. Can I have it look like vintage (or rockabilly) one?

Btw, that's one of the models that I thought had a gorgeous figure (which is why I'd saved the pic) ergo Kaelvan, your figure is gorgeous. Along with the rest of you. ;)
