So! I've gained 5lbs (2.27kg/.36 stone). Measurement time!
Neck: 15.75in (up .25in)
Arm: 14in (same)
Arm (flexed): 14.5in (up .25in)
Waist: 40in (up 1.25in)
Stomach (around navel): 39.5in (up 1in)
Thigh: 26in (up .5in)
Since muscle builds faster than fat burns (as I understand it), and since muscle is heavy, things are going well!
Exercise today and tomorrow, rest Friday, and then move up to setting 7 on Saturday!
