One side of my body is larger.
 
I use to weigh 281lbs. I am now 210lbs. Here recently I have been working out to tone and get fitter. Trying to work my way back down to 135 and tone my body. I use my treadmill, do weights, do setups and sometimes work out videos. I noticed here in the past few days that my right side is larger then my left. My right waist, hip, tummy, arm and b**** is wider/larger (more fat on it ). If I do weights I always do the same amount of reps on the right as I do on the left. My exercises do not favor one side more then the other. Not really sure if this is normal. Kind of weird. Anyone else have this issue or any ideas on how to even out :) About 2 inch's more on the right then my left.

Most weight books say you should start the reps on the weaker/non-dominant side. Do you do that?

My left is weaker then my right. I am right handed. If I do one sided reps I start with the left since my arm is weaker then I do my right. Most of the weight training I have been doing I use both arms at the same time. I knew my right arm would be bigger and stronger but I never thought I would have more inches of fat on the right then the left.

My legs are different. I try to work the smaller/ weaker one more but I'm not sure if its working.

I am going to try that too. Hopefully it will work out. I researched it online and I guess its normal. It will even out when the fat is lost. At least that's what other say :) Best of luck to you.
