Hi all,

I would like to join too. I have learned a lot on this site and wanted to pas it on to you all.
Check out this thread http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/113609-relatively-light-people-trying-to-get-leaner
and this blog http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/stroutman81/view/resistance-training-foundation-19725

My impression is that you do need to actually lift heavy weights and alternate that with cardio. I was so excited to go to the gym today and go no where near the 5 or 10lb dumbells. That is in my past.

My info:
5'1''
CW: 132ish
GW: 118ish but lean!
cardio about 4-5 times a week for 30-60 minutes
weight training twice a week (for now)
yoga once a week

Good luck! Lets get pumped!
