    it's a hard process because it takes so much time to see results.

    How are your workout estimates? I was finding mine a little high and I was maintaining- I've start losing again when I dropped them almost in half.

    I just went through and looked at my next 10 pounds and realized it was going to take me almost 5 months to get it all off- I was sad- that puts me squarely into holiday season!!! lame.

    finally, an update:

    i'm ending my cut today! woohoo!

    it's been close to 12 weeks since i started & my ending stats are:

    height: 5'4 (too bad there's nothing lifting can do to make me taller, boohoo)
    weight: 114.2 lbs
    bust: 31.5 "
    waist: 25 "
    hips: 33.5 "

    so, i'll take it. :3

    Jo, I actually started finally losing the weight maybe a day or so after I posted, haha! I think I had a woosh. Anyway, I don't log the calories I burn during my workout, so this wasn't even a matter of faulty math. I think my body was just being stubborn.

    I think mine gets that way too LOL hard to be sure though!!!

    Glad to see you had started losing again though!!!

    thnx guys! i've added 100 cals this week to see how my metabolism is doing & i'm still losing, yikes! excited to keep adding more, though. :) hopefully i'll be able to bulk a little higher than 2100 next time.

    lifts are still pretty solid. my squat pr is 190, but i usually do my sets in the 155-175 range, which still gets some comments from the meathead gallery, probably because i look like a snack to them, haha.
