Im In! Thanks to all of you on here, I learned that I wont become the Hulk if I lift . Im on MPF 30+ days, I just finished my second week of Jamie Easons LiveFit, 12 week weightlifting program. I'm adding squats daily and want to start doing doing deadlifts (once I learn proper form). Ive never LOVED going to the gym…

what an achievement! You look amazing!

amazing!

WOW, thanks for sharing and congrats!!!!!!!!!

First time I joined WW when I was 23, I lost 12 in the first week, doing their quick start diet, I was 200 lbs ( dont think they have that now). Lost 30 in one month once doing 5 drinks a day and no food ( yeah, I was a stupid kid!). Any time I every tried Atkins, I always lost 8 in the first week. Always gained it all…

Wow, your before and after pictures are amazing. Congrats and thanks for sharing!!!!!!!

It is a challenge to meet it. I'm working on planning my dinners first, so I know what I need to do for the day. Im also working on eating more in the am. Same for me, On days I work out it seems much easier.

Thanks, the sugar in my tea is really the only added sugar Im eating right now for the most part, so I wasn't too worried about it. THANK YOU for clearing up the protein calories, I never realized it meant LEAN body mass. It is hard to meet, this info will help! On a great side note, I hit my 25 fiber today :)

What an achievement! awesome!

awesome, I just started Jamie Eason's program last week :)

I use Smucker's Organic creamy,( 7 protein, 16 g fat, 210 cal for 2 tbls) would rather crunchy, but cant find it :(. I was just told that I need to up my fat intake to help break down the proteins, I also have a tuff time reaching my calories on a lot of days, so looks like its gonna be more peanut butter for me :). I use…

Big difference in your arms, especially the back picture! I just started lifting myself...thanks for sharing your progress.

wow, congrats to you! You look wonderful!!

Thanks everyone for the advice!! I will be paying more attention to my macros from now on. Learning about my macro intake has been a real eye opener! I'm gonna check out those gummy vitamins with fiber also. I was supposed to start taking a multivitamin with the program I'm doing, and Ive just been grabbing my kids…

Happy Birthday, and there will be plenty of games to watch!! Today is first of three rest days for the program I'm doing, and I think Ill take them , everything from the neck down is sore! Its a good sore though!

awesome work!!

They just showed this on the morning news. Must be going viral.

wow, congrats! What a wonderful accomplishment!

Wow, thanks for sharing! amazing work!

Beautiful! Congrats to you!

Thanks so far for all the great advice! I am already in the group, " Eat, Train, Progress group". I need to hang out over there more! I love the idea of lifting before cardio ( thanks Vorgas for all the advice)! I just joined the Stronglifts 5x5 , sadly my office on comp isnt working , and I cant open the spreadsheet :(.…

Just read this article, seems pretty straight forward and answered one of my questions: http://www.mckinley.illinois.edu/handouts/free_weights.html

I had the same thoughts past couple days, " am I too old to start this?" I signed on to mpf to search out woman my age ( 43) to see if there were any who were over weight and started weight training. First post I saw was a 46 year old woman who looked in her 30's with a rockin body, and theres so many more! Saw a 93 or…

congrats, Loving your smile!!!!

I LOVE when my kids ask me to buy healthier items!! Just ask her! You need more fruits, veggies and non processed foods in your diet! Honestly, I love peanut butter, I eat it regularly, but 1-2 tbls is PLENTY! Your eating 5 tbls at a time, and some days your do it twice. A lot of high calorie snacking that isn't necessary.…

wonderful progress, big difference!

congrats on your transformation. LOVE the dress, very sexy!
