    I loved lifting in high school and college and this is inspiring me to start again. I actually had improved my bench press from maxing at 45lbs (the bar) to 95lbs and then because I didn't have a membership I just stopped. I appreciate all of the inspiration you ladies have brought for the rest of us. We appreciate you!!!! :-)

    Great work! Makes me realize that my road is years, not months long. :)
    You can see my general progression in my profile pictures.

    I am only 5 lbs lighter than when I started MFP now yet look at the photo in the pink sports bra vs. earlier photos. Definitely a difference due to change in body composition.

    I wish I knew what weight training would do to me I would have started YEARS ago.... I am just now down the NROWT book and it was life changing. I am working on building my own routine based on what I used in this program and others that I have found.

    Still working on it but I LOVE strength training. I lost over 50lbs on it gone from size 16 to size 8 using this program and training with 15 minute run as a warm up. Combined with healthy eating.

    I LOVE IT!!!

    Great inspiration! I originally lost 56lbs after I had my 3rd baby and was in a size 8, now I don't do a lot of strength training, but we do it as part of our cardio kickboxing class (we do a warm up and stretch, the 15 min of resistance training, then 15-20 min against the heavy bag and then 10-15 of abs) and I'm now a size 4/6 and have a lot of definition in my upper body and even some ab definition, which is cool at 41 with 3 kds 3, 5 and 7. Wish I had done all this before kids!

    Wow. I have been one of 5 or 6 women who lift on another board for 3 years. I wish I would have know you guys were all out there. I would have joined mfp right away.

    I lift 6 days a week for around 1 hour a day and I do cardio 1+ hours a day normally. I still have a ways to go but:
