  • I am glad to read your posts because I get so discouraged that I have lost 21 lbs but still in 16's! They ARE looser but thought I should be in a 14 after 21 lbs. so now I feel better and know it will probably take at least another 10 lbs to get me there.

I do 3 sets, 15 repititions for my tri-ceps and bi-ceps. I do them every other day. I've done the exercises 6 times and my arms already feel stronger. I…
