Weights Bad??

I recommend 1200 calories maximum and lots of elliptical and zumba. There's also some pink weights that you can use but you should probably get a video at home and use that with the pink weights.
You'll get really tone. Lots of reps.
HAR HAR HAR... Be a jerk much?
OP: Umm... You didn't gain weight in one day. Lifting weights will cause some water retention in your muscles as they repair themselves post-workout. A small weight gain the few days after you lift is normal. Keep lifting! As long as your eating is on track and you're not following a bulking diet, you'll lose weight. Add in cardio as well, and it should help you lose the weight faster. I'm losing weight, too, and I lift 2-3 times a week with a trainer and I do cardio almost every day. You won't be sorry you lifted weights, trust me.

All wrong...you need to stick to 5 lb. weights and 100 reps!!
I know this is a joke, but as a woman who lifts her *kitten* off on the regular, I take issue with it. :mad:
This is what women who lift heavy REALLY look like...

Ignore the sarcasm. It's most likely all water, because you can't gain 5 pounds from lifting weights just like that.0

I would probably stop exercising. A friend of mine told me that if you start getting abs they will go away if you wait a week. Also, if you are getting too bulky all over she suggested that eating less helps.0

If my local gym was like this I would be down there for hours getting "tips" on how to bench press.
Just need to find a way to disguise myself as a towel!All wrong...you need to stick to 5 lb. weights and 100 reps!!

So I lifted weights yesterday and today I was 5 lbs. up. I am trying to lose weight not gain it........Maybe weight training just isn't for me. Should I go back to just doing cardio? I gave it a shot but it doesn't seem to be working out.
were they barbie weights, or donut weigths?
Personally I like the 12 oz weights that come in gold or the 6 oz weights that come in red . . . I find that when I'm doing oz weights instead of pound weights I definitely see an overall increase in overall bodyweight the next few days.0 -
