    Nate!
    I have a question. I just started strength training. Lots of people have given me their unsolicited advice on women and weights. I just need a final answer! I've read that it's okay for women to lift heavy (of course, I'm not yet with just starting out), but some people are saying that women will get bulky and I should tone by doing low weight and high reps. (Which I don't believe, because I'm not overloaded with testosterone.) I also saw a girl at my gym doing some crazy fast bicep curls WITH the gym trainer. What was that?!
    Thanks! Rebecca

    It just means that someone is posting in the thread (without adding any content, usually) just to keep the thread at or near the top of the message board listing so it does not get "lost" - thus "bumping" it to the top of the list. You can also just look at "My Topics" to see threads you've posted in, which will keep it handy for you.

    Just by posting that you already have. Now to check on this thread you can go to "My Topics". That is one reason people "bump" so they can find it easily in their "My Topics" tab. Every thread you post in will be listed.

    Hope you know what you have let yourself in for!! I am 5.0 and wishing to lose 24Ibs I had acute disseminating encephalystis over 12 years ago which has left me with internal nerve damage and mobility issues. I know I am lucky to be alive and able to walk after being in a coma and waking paralysed from the neck down but it has effected my confidence. I keep seeing all these people going on about exercise and the importance which is very frustrating for a person with difficulties so I really need a lot of help with the nutritional side of things. I would grately appreciate any of your wisdom and assistance. My tummy is gross and I was wandering what exercises I should do to help this area. I have had 4 c sections so muscle is shot. (What we do for our kids..lol). Please take no notice of my spelling I am learning Welsh and my English has suffered.

    So, I'm 5"2 currently 133lbs. I'm aiming for 114 by May which I think is doable but my weight loss has stopped! I exercise about 60-90 mins cardio 5/6 days a week. And about 2 hours of strength training a week. I've cut my calories down to around 1000cals a day but haven't seen a movement on the scales for 3 weeks!

    I recently changed my training routine just in case my body had gotten used to it. How can I get the scales moving again?

    Any workaround to TOM? Between the bloating and general craptasticness, my body has been hanging onto these 3 pesky pounds before I get down to my next mini-goal and I'm NOT happy about it.

    I'm withthis person on this one i can gain 3-4lbs around this time for a week or two and i hate weigh in time it feels like i haven't done anything when i see it go back up, also my tom is every 21 days so it seems i only get a week of normal weight
