    Ah thats a great idea!, it that Fitspiration thread the one that is doing the rounds?
    I am impressed with my profile pic, maybe its just the angle, but I look so long and leaner!

    Penny dropped for me this week. 2.5kgs down (the last 6 weeks worth of .5kgs down per week lol)
    Feeling great!

    I am LOVING your profile pic! :) I had a pretty good go’round cussing my scale this morning. It shows me up six pounds. SIX? Seriously? I hate my lying scale, LOL…

    Ok, so I nailed triple digits on my first three lifts today; :bigsmile: And Big Girl Plates on my DL’s.

    Squat - 3x6 @100# (45.35kg)

    Deads - 3x6 @ 135# (61.2kg)

    Glute Bridge - 3x8 @ 135 (61.2kg)

    Standing Leg Press - 3x7 @ 65# (29.4kg)

    Seated Calf Raise - 3x8 @ 80# (36.28kg)

    Shoulder Shrug - 3x6 @ 70# (31.75kg)

    Good Morning - 3x7 @ 75# (34kg)

    Then my full round of ab finishers - dumbbell crunches, reverse oblique crunches, planks, and Swiss ball oblique crunches. Warmed up with a few minutes on the elliptical.

    BRING ON WEEK 7!!!!! :laugh:

    Awesome work Julie! Question for you, how do you hold your weights on the glute bridges? That's incredible!

    Hiya, Charissa! Saw your burn status and lol'd!!!

    Ok, I use a folded towel to kind of provide a cushion so that when the bar is resting on my hip bones it isn't painful. When I bring my heels as close to my butt as they will go, the bar rests where the bend is. I'm glad I can do 135. Because that uses the big plates, making it easier to roll the bar over my legs to get it in position.

    Wow you guys are doing so good. Julie those weights are awesome keep it up :flowerforyou:

    I think I must take some measurements today cause the scale is going no where and I feel annoyed again!! :sad:

    I did a really good leg set on Saturday and am still in pain can barely walk lol. I did 1 set of 80kg and 2 sets of 60kg on the leg press so was surprised at that.

    Anyway week 7 begins and I'm ready to get it done, I just want to see a little more progress so I can not feel stuck in the same place. :cry:
