I hope to tighten an dloose the fat now. Once I do that I will be able to see some results of that hard work. I weigh between 178 and 180,kinda bounces around. I need to work the legs more,I;ve always had good upper body strength due to my work and art,so I gotta get those legs and back now. I...

Wow 71 pounds,OMG! Great post,I'm battling the bulge,my own fault,when I was laid up for 2 years,I ate to feel better...then had a hystorectomy and grew two asses.... Diets only work for some,once my body figures out my throat hasn't been cut(explains less food) it goes into survival mode and...

I can weigh one number step on it later ,after I eat,just curious and weigh two pounds more,so unless I ate a small cow,there shouldn't be that much difference right? I still step on it once a week,see the same old number,then I "chuck the bird" at my scales,like they really care ..makes me feel...

Goofed on the preacher curl weight it wasn't supposed to be 60 lbs,it's 50lb. When I first started 4 months ago all these were half or less of those weights. Not trying to impress anyone, I feel like a light weight compared to the weights I'm seeing,especially w/ ladies who weigh much less than...

Wow I didn't think they were all that strong just starting out. I've always had to lift a lot. I grew up on a farm and lifting and throwing 50 pound feed bags as a daily job... Girls used to make fun of me in school since I was thin but broad shouldered...1980's,big shoulder pad craze,never...

Thanks so much,I enjoy making things.. I love to sculpt and creat new pieces. I'm not much of a TV person,I get bored just sitting...I must be ADHD.:D As a kid we never sat around to watch Tv too much work to do on the farm... I'll turn on the TV in my studio but usually to gem shopping...

I only do starches in the morning like a little cereal or oatmeal,no starches after 6 pm. I don't go to bed until 2 am so I have all evening to burn them off. I weight train every other day and I do resitance every evening,it usually helps me to sleep better...Plus I get bored w/ TV.... I love...

I only started lifting 4 months ago,2 x per week. I started at 85 lbs x 1 set -10 reps. I worked on core strength so I wouldn't hurt myself... I don't know what is considered good lifting weights for women. I've heard you should be able to bench your body weight,if that's true...oh boy....I...

You'll love flying,a great reason to keep in shape ,especially if you do multi engine training. You'll need strong legs for single engine work (engine out ) since you will really need to step on that opposite rudder to keep the plane flying straight on one engine. I hated instrument at first,I...

Thanks for the advise. I saved it. We eats a lot of broccoli,we love it. We grow it every summer. We steam it,no butter...I aslo love it cold,mixed w/ carrots and cauliflower as a snack. The progress is slow on the weight loss but the progress isn't too bad on the building up strength. I've gone...

Hubby and I work out together,keeps me motivated. I used to like working out alone,but I kinda like the company. We're so busy sometimes it's the only time we get to really talk and hang out... I do my aerobics alone though,feel self conscious,but lifting,I like the company. We also watch each...
