    400 crunches a day! Wow. You must have abes of steel! I'll take your challenge starting today. I'm starting my diet and exercise so I know I won't be doing 400 crunches today but I'll do as many as I can.

    Oddly enough, no! Kidding - I do feel muscle under there, and I definitely feel that whole area looking better and feeling stronger. I've been trying on my two piece bathing suits, and we're getting closer, but not there yet!!! :smile:

    Welcome :flowerforyou: - do as many as you can - I still only do 20 push ups - I find them hard, but I am trying to build up (I should mention again that I do them against the kitchen counter! No upper body strength to speak of!). :wink:

    Sorry I've been too busy to get on the site.
    I partied at my college roomies wedding this weekend only to have monthly bloat so I haven't measured (figured it'd be to discouraging).

    Still here though!
