I can do 10 reps at half body weight, but am a long way from benching BW. My 1 rep max is just below "intermediate" on the standards chart.

My best friend *loves* to tell strangers how I've lost "a ton" of weight. It's so embarrassing.

I like this, I can just imagine they are talking about anything I wish...(you know what that means- science ;) )

So...if it touches your butt, would that be good or bad? Hypothetically.

Thread is making me hungry...

I love my stomach and back. <3

Perhaps determine the volume of water it displaces?

Dance around. In college we used to march in place while watching TV or just hanging out.

SO impressed by your collective strength! :heart: Heaviest recent lifts (for sets of 5-8 reps) Bench 75 Squat 105 Deadlift 140 (I weigh decently less than this, so I feel kind of proud) :drinker:

I love this! For me, it kind of changed over time. In the beginning I was getting a lot of attention that I wasn't used to and I actually found it pretty stressful. There was a big disconnect between the way I felt and how people were treating me. Then once I adjusted...it mostly just either feels like something I don't…

Lift weights and dance. And sometimes yoga just for fun. Do what you enjoy! :flowerforyou:

I love you so damn much!

Pics? :drinker:

I love you too! :heart: :heart: :heart:

I joined this group just to reply here. :flowerforyou: I find penises fascinating. Here is my (highly unprofessional) assessment: 1, 4, 8, 9, & 13) I don't know, but some have put forth the hypothesis that the tip is shaped that way to pull out the semen from the woman's previous partner during intercourse. One might…

No. I truly feel that I have never, ever been as hot as I am in my 40s. :drinker:

Agree. Lifting makes everything else you do easier. And more fun. :drinker:

Well, time to just get on the scale and do it. :flowerforyou: Honestly, I would stay this age forever if I could- the 40s are ****ing amazing!

No.

Lovely!

Well, at one point I learned a sexy dance to this one: Bessie Smith- I need A Little Sugar In My bowl https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=R3SiWcyg29g

Yes. :laugh:

Sigh. First of all, I think you look fabulous and I commend you for being so active! But I really think you will enjoy your vacation much more if you stop comparing yourself to your sister and just enjoy being you. :heart: Look around the world and you will see that it could be a LOT worse! Life is very short and we should…

He is correct. Start doing your pull ups and push ups now before you lose any more muscle! And maybe some squats and lunges, etc. In my humble opinion you should try to recomp instead of losing more weight. (Gain muscle).

136 seems on the small side for a man. Do you lift?

:drinker: I would go here: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/1080242-a-guide-to-get-you-started-on-your-path-to-sexypants You can do this!

You are amazing and inspiring and strong! I'm so sorry about your niece, but I think she would be very happy to see how you've become. :heart: You are still pretty young too! I'm 43 and can honestly tell you it only gets better and you have so much to look forward to! :flowerforyou:

You've been losing an average of 9 lbs a week! I think it is realistic to expect that pace to slow down. Healthy loss would be 1-2 lbs per week almost! He is only a month old and you probably can't even work out for a couple more weeks! If you are breastfeeding, that will help. Either way, please have realistic…
