28 Before & After Photos That Prove Your Weight Is Meaningless
887Kviews
Most of us worry about some pounds gained and probable weight loss from time to time, and usually, this is very much related to the number we see on the scales.
Well, sometimes weight is truly just a number, and these strength training lovers will prove it to you. Compiled by Bored Panda, these before and after photos show that weighing yourself isn't always the best way to see whether or not you are actually getting a toned body, and you definitely don't need to starve yourself or go on a very strict diet to see the actual difference.
Even though these photos show that you can maintain your weight by weight lifting and some serious muscle gain and still look stunning, some people did choose the other path, and their results are inspiring nonetheless. Different physiques require different choices!
Scroll down to see how incredible these women look without losing a single pound, yet gaining incredible muscle tone!

I have improved mu life style very much this year and I have not lost a single kilogram. But still I can now wear some of my old clothes that were too small in December 2017 so definitely something positive has happened to my body. :)
This is so stupid. “Throw out your scale” and “weight is just a number” advocates to people of the fat acceptance movement. They will never understand that the women in the pictures worked VERY hard to convert fat into muscle mass (which is much heavier). They probably also eat very healthy food. Its only then you can stop worrying about the number on the scale. When you are obese, those number are actually significant to you health and even to your life!

That's impossible. She'd have to lose/gain wait changing her muscle shape like that.
Muscle mass weights more than fat but takes up less space in the body, so it's entirely possible to gain muscle and lose fat without your weight changing much in the process. Some people even gain weight due to the muscle mass increase even though their clothing sizes get smaller due to fat loss.

Nothing Quite Like A Reminder That Weight Can Be Deceiving, Age Means Nothing And Healthy Looks Different
Pleaseeeeee Stop Getting Hung Up On The Number On The Stupid Scale! Please Stop Thinking Your Weight Equals Your Progress And For The Love Of Everything Please Stop Letting Yor Weight Have Any Affect Whatsoever On Your Self Esteem, Like I Used To
Stop Letting The Scale Determine Your Success - It’s Literally Just A Number!
For people confused, it's a loss of weight and gain of muscle mass (which is heavier than fat obviously)
Throw Away The Scale!!!!!!!
Now This Is A Very Common Question I Always Get Asked. “How Much Weight Have You Lost Since The Start Of Your Fitness Journey?!” Uhmmmm. The Truth Is That I Have Stayed Almost The Exact Same Weight As When I Started
I Weighed Myself Today For The First Time In Forever...i’m Exactly The Same Weight As When I Started Last June!
Age 26, 5'8'', 137 Lbs. My Weight Has Stayed Constant Since I Began Lifting
Don't you find your quality of life is restricted with big black discs on your head? :p
This Is A Little Reminder That Number On The Scale Is Just Number. Your Weight Doesn’t Equal Your Progress!
Would You Care If Your Weight Stayed The Same, If Your Body Composition Completely Changed?
And This Is Why The Scale Should Not Be The Main Measurement Of Progress Or Health. The Scale Does Not Differentiate Between Muscle, Fat, Water, And Organs
Muscle weighs more than fat, hence, she loses Bodyfat through sweat and carbon dioxide, and gains lean mass in turn. :)
I Get Asked All The Time "How Much Do You Weigh?"
you look great, but that's still rude for people to ask that... I mean, come on. but great work, you look wonderful!
Scales Versus Pictures
By The Scales Standards And My Old Way Of Thinking, I'm Failing At This Weightloss Thing.
That's the kind of thinking they have on those weight loss shows like Biggest Loser. They dont have a clue how fitness works...they're so focused on the scale.
Guess What, Exactly The Same Weight In Both!
It's A Comparison Of Over A Year. This Transformation Could Be Done Within 3 Months
In Both Of These Pictures I’m The Exact Same Weight, Normally I Would Be Devastated And Feel Like I’ve Failed. One Of The Biggest Things I’ve Achieved On This Challenge Is To Ditch The Scales And Learn To Feel And See The Changes I’m Making To My Body
Some Things Change: 2014 And 2016
I Feel Like I Haven’t Posted A Transformation In A While, So Here You Go! Same Weight And Such A Difference
muscle weighs more than fat.
BINGO!! This is not Rocket Science either. Muscle is much denser, and takes up less space. Why are people so surprised at this revelation? 00-banghea...083768.gif
That's what I thought and I'm happy I'm not the only one who thinks so.
Because when you have spent your entire life battling your 'weight', it's a hard concept to accept that you don't necessarily need to drop lots of kg in order to significantly change how you look. I'm far from being stupid but these pictures really shocked me. I never realised you could look great without actually 'losing weight'.
@John L - As I understand it, back in the day there were a lot fad "diets" being written about in books and magazines, often in reference to someone famous. So much so, that people started to forget the original definition of the word diet. To confuse matters more, it was becoming common at this time for athletes to purchase personal scales to keep track of positive weight gain (usually muscle gains, which are hard to see if you have no tone), which these diet gurus claimed was key to getting results. Whats worse, some time around the 80's fashion designers started hiring super tall, super skinny models. Although some assumed it was because they were more aesthetically pleasing, it later came out that the primary reason for promoting this was because it saved on material and makes it easier to see the outfit on the catwalk. These and other misconceptions became such a social norm that it didn't matter if legit scientists and MD's were saying otherwise. It stuck.
1kg of fat weighs exactly the same as 1 kg of muscle.
Well, yes. But even though it's a little more accurate to say that the same weight of muscle takes up less space, it's not *wrong* to say that muscle weighs more than the same volume of fat. I'm not really sure why people love correcting this "misconception" so much. It's just 2 ways to say the same thing.
No it doesn't.
OK, this is the type of post on weight that I love. People working to get healthy. Great job, ladies, and men.
Great job ladies! The scale is very deceiving, if anyone asks how much you weigh, there's a simple answer: "One hundred and Sexy!"
I was always told when you are dieting and/or working out (whether to lose weight or gain) never use a scale, use the mirror, mirrors never lie. Go by what your eye finds appealing not what a number says.
For me it was the way clothes fit. I lost 40lbs and then started working on muscle tone. I went from a size 12 to 4. Haven't stepped on a scale in a year and don't plan to any time soon. On the negative, when you do tone up you do notice every extra lb. No scale necessary.
I've always used Body Fat % as well as how much more I am able to lift each week at the gym.
I must ask this. How do you measure body fat? I really want to know, as I have started going back to the gym two months ago, and bought myself some weights, and a yoga mat for home.
so from my understanding, muscle weighs more than fat, but it's more condensed so takes up less space. I reckon if you compared waist size you'd see the difference, they all look great though (before AND after).
muscle weights around 6 times more than fat in equal volume.
STOP READING NONSENSE OF SILLY PAST DANNY fat-tissue = 0,94 g/cm³ muscle-tissue = 1,05 g/cm³
But have you noticed that all these chicks were skinny to begin with before they toned themselves, if I, who is actually obese, were to do the same thing the scales WOULD show that I'd lost a lot of weight before it started coming back on as muscle tone
You're absolutely right- results will vary. But I think the message here is to not just focus on weight, instead, focus on improving your health. Exercise, eat right, and don't worry about the stupid scale.
No. They weren't.
Wow - this thread could not have come at a better time! Thank you!!!! I have been working really hard to lose weight and more importantly, tone and slim. I've not been doing it for very long but I have been careful with what I eat and doing a hard 90 minute workout every other day for the last 2 months. And I've been starting to get seriously disheartened because my weekly weight is just not changing. I have lost about 3lb in all that time. But.....I feel better...I can see my tummy starting to tighten, and I can feel my clothes getting looser. I just never realised exactly HOW much of a change there can be in your body shape, without actually changing your overall weight. This thread has made me realise that my weekly weigh-in is not the ultimate measurement of my progress. I honestly don't care how much I weigh, as long as I feel fit and healthy and can wear the clothes I like. Thank you so much! You have no idea how much this has helped with my morale!
I have a flat stomach when I stand up straight and a considerably 'fat' stomach and double neck when I slouch. Fun fact, posture also changes everything.
All of these comments; "don't care about the scale!" ...... yet they all obviously do, obsessively.
Your weight is IMPORTANT, not meaningless. Well intentioned slogan fails miserably.
Why are all of them women? Is it only important for women how do we look? Just be happy with what you have, if you want to work out, work out, if you don't enjoy without it. Life is short.
Agree. I see a lot of pretty women on streets but none of them are worked out. I think a lot of worked out women has many complexus about herself and there are a lot of men, who feels himself not enough masculim and starts to fun about worked out women. Such men yelling full the Internet with "the good woman is a worked out woman."
Life is shorter when you are fat and unfit.
Question about selfies: why is it common for the person to partially block their face w the phone, and why do a lot of people look at the phone instead of straight ahead (or the reflection of the lens in the mirror?)
They might not want to show their face. They look at the phone to see the exact image they're capturing.
I never understood that either. I think we didn't get the memo.
The title seems to imply that you don't need to do anything and maby 'suk it in'. Muscles weigh more than fat that's why.
This post seems to devalue the importance of having and wanting to get a healthy body. Seems like really bad advertising Boredpanda. But then again Boredpanda doesnt really have morals. They have revenue goals.
Weight most assuredly is not meaningless. It's just not the only thing to take into consideration.
Exactly. This article is very misleading. Weight is for sure important, but it needs to be measured along with fat percentage, sizes and such to get a proper understanding of someone's health.

Okay but... I wanna know HOW. HELP ME.
Where are all of the blokes?
How do you get those crazy nice abs ladies?
People will rarely give you proper answers to this question. But the real solution is having a really LOW FAT percentage. It does not matter how many crunches you do. Even if you have insane belly muscles you won't see shit if you have a layer of fat on it. The main reason you see abs on people is because first of all they have a really really low fat percentage. You don't even need that much muscle. If you have really low fat percentage you will see them. If you have alot of muscles and a layer of fat you won't.
Many, many crunches. I do three different kinds (your abs are three separate muscle groups), holding a 15 pound weight. I'm not after the way they look so much as trying to make sure I don't have back issues as I get older. If your abs aren't in at least some kind of shape, they can't support you properly and you WILL have back problems.
Most men do not like such abs on women. Women shouldn't be that musclar and lean. It's not feminine.
I have mixed feelings about this. It's great to work out to stay healthy. But it's not easy to become so toned as these ladies. It's more difficult than losing weight. So, instead of giving inspiration and encouragement, it could even demotivate you.
This confirms what I've been saying for years. Something that I'm amazed about, is the fact many people take BMI as gospel. They don't realise that muscle ways more than fat, so you could weigh more than before but that's due to losing fat and gaining muscle. I can't believe that it's still being used in the medical field to determine someone's ideal weight depending on their height. It's utter nonsense.
Oh my god, I meant weighs, not ways! Cocking autocorrect!
Muscle weighs more than fat.....
Even though related I was always convinced that it's not a matter of weight rather than size.
My OH took control of his weight and body shape,and he calls these No Scales Victories. Don't worry about the numbers, it's the shape and tissue balance that matter the most.
fake
Thank you for the posted pics - certainly are heaps people who have worked hard . From my personal experience I can tell you that If you like idea of losing weight & getting fit but maybe the bodies here look a little scary, you can still have a tight body & feel more energetic without the six pack and defined muscles. I did GYM & Aerobics (incl weight training) 3 times week for years plus a year or 2 of Personal Training & NEVER looked like these guys (they look great btw just wasn’t for me). Simple Fact - MUSCLE IS HEAVIER THAN FAT - that’s it. If you build even a tiny bit of muscle You Will Notice the difference in your body. Some light weights every week done correctly (slow methodical movements breathing correctly keeping yr stomach in & feet flat on floor eyes up etc - repeating each exercise 3 reps @ a time) will do it for you & Weigh training Increases your bone density as well - something we all need as we grow older.
Remember, guys; when you say you wanna lose weight, you really wanna get rid of fat. Trash the scale.
We are talking about weight and muscles ? Men are not concerned about weight and muscles ? This kinf of publication serves only to strengthen the female ego, already well inflated. He does not talk about weight, he talks about the weight of women. The men are always judged very severely by these women who preach the acceptance of the body of his neighbor. There is hypocrisy in the air.
Ok so these women look great, but why is this not obvious? Muscle weighs more than fat.
I want all of their lifting notes!
Muscle waigh way more than fat but unfortunately some of these pictures show wrong (too low) weight for the before pictures.
I weigh the same as I did 10 years ago - and I used to starve myself! Don't do that now, exercise 4 times a week and ear properly - you have to put the work in to get what you want!
How does a series of photos of people really trying to lose weight prove its meaningless?
I would like to say that reaching a better health goal for any person, is a feat many cannot stick to and follow up on. They all look wonderful . Congratulations to all for a happier and healthier life :) :)
wow, looking at the comments people really have an issue with muscular women... wtf
I wish I knew their technique to keep their boobs. I lost 10lbs and went down 2 cup sizes with no loss on my stomach. Devestated.
Yeahyeahyeah, replace fat with muscle. No brainer / no surprise.
Hm. I find most of the before photos perfectly nice looking. Now, the athletic look ist way better than the bony one that prevailed for so many decades, but, still: We women are way too hard on ourselves.
This is because muscle is denser than fat, when your clothes get tighter and you get stronger then you know you're doing well!!
learn to embrace ur weight!! Good job ladies
I think these should be on the wall of every female public bathroom. Skinny is not fit. Thanks for publishing this
I can't be the only person who thinks that most of these people look strange in the after photo right? I understand they are more muscular, but their waists make them look strange, and in my mind not as attractive body wise. In the pictures with faces even their faces don't look at cute or nice. Maybe the pants make their waists look out of proportion? Just my thoughts while scrolling through.
Normal women have waists.
Vanity 🤨

Well sorry to burst your big fat bubble, but being overweight is a health issue. It causes high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, fatigue and several other problems. It's not just about how attractive you are.
It seems like you've judged the whole article on your misunderstanding of the title, which as a book reviewer would be like literally to judging a book by it's cover.
But there were no overweight people in this post. What's your point?
The title says "your weight is meaningless" which is a misdirected title. It should be something like "Your weight may be inconsequential" or "Your weight could be an illusion". Sorry to be so anal. It's my job as a book reviewer and proof reader.

Some of these are full of it. You mean to tell me that girl #3 gained 18lbs from the middle to the right photo? When a 6' tall dude packs on that kind of muscle it's a dramatic transformation. Several of these are absolute bullshit. I know exactly how this process works because I'm one of those people who goes from "normal" thin with a little less tone and a bit more belly to fit and toned and I weight the same each time. Not a chance that every single one of these is correct. Also, weight is absolutely not "meaningless" at all. You mean to tell me that it's impossible to hear someone's height and weight and get any sort of idea whatsoever what size they might be? Fuck right off.
LOL if you spent much time exercising you'd know this is common, and definitely true. LOL again because it was that stupid.
You've never worked out in your life, have you?

What is this revelation!? An athletic body is considered more attractive than a couch potato body? Well that's shocking.......not
It's not about that, it's about how so many people, specially women, focus too much on weight when trying to get fit when you shouldn't because as you lose fat, you gain muscle, and your body changes but the weight can stay the same or even increase. So the numbers don't matter, is what this post is about.
This comment is hidden. Click here to view.
most f them look exactly the same, just different angles
They don't and if they did the point they're making would still be valid, that weight alone does not mean you're not making any progress because Muscles weight more than fat.
