    @macchiatto yes of course, any and all pics welcome. You look amazing, what a difference. I think you should post these in the forum too so me people see them :D

    Wow @macchiatto! Definite change in the abdomen area - awesome job! I also carry most of my weight in my midsection! I need to start taking photos of myself more consistently.

    @macchiatto Wow! Great work there. You're smoothing right out!

    @Emily3907 that is a very cool erg! I've never used one like that.

    @nvmomketo We are pretty excited about it. We went back and forth between this one and the Concept2. What sold us on this one is that it looked better in the living room, is easily stored (it stands up on end and can be moved easily), was quieter and used actual water for the resistance. It is actually a really soothing sound when being used.

    Very neat. My husband nixed the idea of an erg any years ago because of the awful noise... And the ugliness. Lol
    Do you row too? I was on an 8 man boat many years back. Sweep. I miss it. :)

    @nvmomketo Nope, never really rowed on water and pretty new to rowing on an erg. I have been drawn to it because of the full body benefits, along with the cardio and toning. It is going to take a bit to really work up to vigorous rowing. I am starting light to get the proper form and slowly working up. I actually just ordered a heart rate monitor to properly track my efforts.

    Fun! Rowing can be tough. I could rarely last more than 20 minutes on an erg, Quite a workout! The boats are great too but it's more of a HIIT thing there: go hard, slow down, turn around, go again. I remember once being in a boat and my glute cramped so bad that I couldn't even get out of the boat. They had to pull me out. LOL

    I noticed a huge improvement in glutes, back and calves when I did it. It is a great workout once you get that proper form... I'm jealous. ;)

    Have fun with it. :)

    Are progress pics OK in here or is there a better place for those? Let me know; I can move these, but I'm going to be brave and share progress pics that I took recently. The first set of pics are from 8/30 when I started my Transformer DietBet. I didn't take them when I started keto on 11/2 but at that point I was only down 2.8 lbs from the first set of pics so very close. (You can see I definitely tend to carry any extra weight in my midsection!)

    Zero sucking in for the second set of pics to make it a fair comparison. ;)

    Sometimes I play with my food. Something else I was always told was bad. They were wrong!

    I haven't done a structured workout video program in I dont even know how long. So I had lots of energy today and I pulled out an old poorly produced low quality beach body workout DVD. It wasn't nearly as hard as I remembered, I'm a little sore but not too bad. Here's my stats, thought my heart rate was higher than this but fitbit has its limitations.9fo5ngajy2v9.png
