Today's Plan:

Protein Shakes all day
10 net carbs

I'm posting pictures that show my current weight lifting progress. It is not much, but...

* I turn 50 next month - I thought I could not build muscle at my age

* I have only been seriously lifting for 3 weeks - I lift more in a day than I did in 2-3 months previously.

* I have only been squatting and deadlifting for one week - These are the core 'compound movements' that @JimmiePop turned me on to. I am in his debt for pointing me in the direction to not waste my time in the gym (and get insanely fast results).

Current workout (3 days a week (Sun/Tues/Thursday))
[3 sets of each]

Bench Press - 85lbs (10 reps)
Deadlift – 105lbs (6 reps)
Squat - 105lbs (10 reps)
Pullups - (10 reps)
Shrug - 105lbs (10 reps)
Bicep Curl - 40lbs (10 reps)
Pushups - (10 reps)
Crunch - (33 reps)

I didn't notice the dates of the two for 8/19/18. Why does the top right 8/19/18 look so idk the word maybe faded. The bottom 8/19/18 looks much better, but only because your skin tone is evened. I do like the buffiness of your top half better in the 174# picture. You are doing so Great!

@cynthiaaeh - Thanks. Reading about your workouts (that matched what @JimmiePop was saying) was one more piece of evidence that made me move forward with this.
