"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

This may seem like a simple question..

but I just want to make sure.

If I make PR's and thus my muscles are growing and the scale says I'm loosing weight.. that must be all fat (and maybe some water) right?
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

I think you are right

If you are losing weight but you think you are gaining muscle mass ,then I think the decrease is due to loss of fat and water only!

A better place, a better time.
It is not necessarily ALL fat, but that's probably most of it. If you're not eating enough, the body can actually break down muscle to fuel itself, though this is rare.

Just keep in mind that it is basically impossible to develop strength while losing weight as quickly as you would if you were gaining weight. If you're losing weight it usually means you have a caloric deficit (energy expended > energy intake). This means your body is deprived of energy it could be using to build your muscles during your recovery phase.

But it all depends on what your fitness goals are, anyways.
