| POLL: Unfeminine? |

So I just finished my first 12 weeks of Body For Life on Saturday and yesterday my husband may have used the terms ‘Manly’ and ‘Back’ together when referring to my frame!
I know that I have put on muscle since I started this programme, but having lost 32lbs in total so far since Feb 4th, I’ve been feeling great about things and personally don’t mind the muscle. Thing is, he’s not a man of many (negative) words and doesn’t usually make comments like that so I was more than a little taken aback when he uttered those words. And it’s not like he’s a stranger to the gym, even though he’s more of a runner than a lifter.
Until Sunday, I had thought I looked a lot better than 3 months back but I never set out to look masculine (although muscle-gain was in the plan), so my question to you all is: Do I look unfeminine?
I had just thought the next step was to work on my body fat % so that I’d lose the bulk but maybe that’s not going to be enough…I’d appreciate some honest (but gentle!) feedback – even just a YES or NO, and this seems to be the best place to get that…HELP!!
p.s. please check my pics to get a better idea, not just my avatar! |

Please you’re smoking HOT! I think what the real issue is your husband. The two following scenarios could be happening here:
1. He may have liked the few extra pounds you gained while being pregnant.
2. He feels threatened by the extra looks and glances your must be getting with a figure like that. |

| I think you look FABULOUS!!!! So many people don't understand that being fit, toned and strong is SEXY, not masculine. If you had a moustache that would be different LOL! Seriously you look.....amazing. you are an inspiration for others whether you know it or not |

| IMH(but gentle)O, your avatar does not do your femininity justice, but that is far from being "manly". Looking at your pictures there is definitely no doubt that you are not only a woman, but one that is good looking and fit. |

| From the pics you have posted, and I can honestly say you look fantastic! I don't think you look "manly" at all. I would use the word athletic, but definitely NOT manly! Keep up the good work and remember - have fun doing it! |
