I think you look pretty good. Most women tend to compare themselves with the fitness models in the magazines and although it is certainly attainable and a good long term goal, the reality is it takes a lot of work to get there. Guys are no different, a lot of us tend to compare ourselves with the pros and end up with "bigorexia" where no matter how big we get, it's never enough. The bottom line is you look way better than the average woman and that should be motivation enough to take you to the next level. Good luck, keep us posed on your progress. Throwin a little K yor way

Since we're all thinking it (and somebody will say it sooner or later) I sure wouldn't mind seeing you in that suit from behind.

You may be able to talk me into it, but I'm warning you....its cellulite city. I'm 1/2 Greek and 1/2 Italian and that is where I carry about 75% of my bodyfat. I guess it goes with the culture.


Ah well.

Awh, you are all so awesome. I was having a heart attack when I was posting those pictures...lol...

I looked at them again, and there is a little bit of a shadow that is behind me on the wall- so I guess I am not as huge as I thought I was at first glance.
I began my new workout/diet on Monday...so far so good. Like I said before, I'm using the Bodysculpting Bible for Women plan and we'll see how it goes.

In a nutshell, it works like this:
Monday:
4 compound sets of upperbody weight training.

Tuesday: Cardio and abs (they recommend 20 min. but I do 45)

Wednesday:
4 compound sets of lower body and some back

Thursday: Cardio and abs (they recommend 20 min. but I do 45)

Friday:
4 Compound sets of different upper and lower body

Satuday: Cardio and abs (they recommend 20 min. but I do 45)

Sunday: Rest and one cheat meal.

The diet is basically 6 meals a day...chicken..flax seed oil...green veggies...brown rice. You know the deal. My only problem is that I am a vegetarian and I don't really want to eat eggs or milk either. I eat beans and peanut butter...I know there are meatless burgers and stuff but I am really trying to eat whole foods.

It's hard to find something that has the same nutritional value as chicken and fish and have it not be animal derived. I have soy shakes too, but I know I can't totally depend on them for protien.

I'll have to do some research.

Thanks again

Damn! got here by accident again...

Anyway, while I`m here, I agree with everyone, you look great. You`ll do fine, you got a great base. Muscle helps burn the fat. Good luck.

"Juicy"....hmm...I like the sound of that. Haha....


Thanks everyone.
