Overall Goal: Want more muscle/ volume+ bit more firm butt (only "problem" area if even that).
For add. CURRENT suppl., pls see Suppl. section - no idea when starting taking some and won't upload w/o date.
Fit Status:
Well this obviously doesn't take 140chars whatsoever. Ennoying.
Back (behind corner of right shoulder blade, going up to my neck) started hurting bad back by end Nov -04 & did for 3 mos. Finally sought help as nothing I did helped & was told this apparently was work (computer) related. As I've always been thin going on stringy, esp on the upper body, I was among other things rec to start working out to strenghten my back in order to prevent the pain from coming back, after it was fixed through a series of acupuncture sessions. Did ever since and only had 2 minor relapses so far.
Why I Love It:
I feel and look better in several ways and it is and feels good for me. Am not getting any younger either and I think I have a good basis to start w/ (hardly any fat) so I enjoy seeing what I can do/ where I can get w/ this.
How I Stay Motivated:
Think about the effort I already put into this and also the benefits, both re: my back & my overall health/ looks/ "mental state".
I've wanted to do this for MANY yrs and so now that I finally got into it am not going to let it go. To compare w/ my current exercise, I've only done aerobics for abt 6mos like almost 15yrs ago and later weight lifting for abt 3mos around 10yrs ago... I never exercised as a kid although I ran in stairs quite a bit (still do!) and cycled a lot until I was around 20 or so. Hence, this is quite a change for me - for the better I think.
BB Accomplishments:
Does getting up at 5-something AM twice/ week to go to the gym before work count...?

Goal (Long):
Naturally thin, even stringy, and need to strengthen back (got issues from too much comp work) - why not see what I can achieve overall as well... I think I have a good base to build from? Too, am not getting younger and it's good for me & makes me feel good & better about myself in several ways.

I think you are making a great progress, you look very slim and tight, if your goals are to add muscle your nutrition is key and as you already know lean protein is your answer. I think that you are in the right direction, you have very lean and athletic legs, your shoulders are very nice developed, and your core is defined and lean. I especially like your back poses, stay healthy and enjoy your workouts. Good luck!
I really beleave on what i say cos i am the hard gainer kind and i am sure its the right way to get quality results, i have been on this for 16 years now going slow but sure ( damn i feel old saing that ) LoL
