I weighed myself on Monday and the scale read 179 lbs.  Could it be possible that I lost 4 pounds since I’ve started working out 2 weeks ago (Feb 13 @ 183)?  Maybe 4 pounds isn’t enough difference to be sure, but I’ll check again in another two weeks.

I don’t really notice my beer belly fading away yet, but I do notice that my upper body muscles are beginning to harden.  I’ve also gone past that stage of tremdous soreness when you first start lifting.  I’m now in the stage of unstability, where you are shaking real bad whenever you start getting tired during the lifting.  I hate it when you’re doing your dips and your whole body is shaking like you have a seizure, that’s when I hope no one is watching.  Usually it takes me about 3 to 4 weeks of consistent workouts before my muscles become stable.

I can’t wait for my muscles to be more stable because that’s when I can really start to make gains on my lifting, or at least that’s how I feel.  I’m no expert when it comes to body building and losing the beer belly but I know from past experience that I start making incremental gains on the amount of weight I can lift after I’ve gone though the phase where my muscles are shaky.  That really makes me feel good, but never really seems to help much in getting a six pack.
