I'm 5'6, 123 lbs and am not looking to lose weight, but to tone up! I'm currently in my 4th week of revAbs and feel like I can tell a slight difference but not too sure. Ive been using 8 lbs weights and wondering If that's too light or if I need to step it up some now. Also anyone know any simple high protein recipe that doesn't have too many ingredients!

I've been slowly putting on some muscle weight and an easy recipe is baked chicken with olive oil and seasoning (whichever you like) plus a pot of brown rice...look it up on http://www.cooks.com/rec/view/0,2339,156177-233204,00.html
takes 30 minutes for the chicken but over an hour for the rice so plan accordingly.
Makes a ton of high protein food and its easy to take to work for lunch for a few days too!0
