Ride my bike to the gym MWF (3.5 mi total) Sometimes a 15-20 mile ride on the weekends, depending on how I feel. Although nothing right now I need to get my bike tire fixed first. And soon! I miss my wheels.

Definitely try to get out and get some fresh air first - ride my bike (yes sometimes I listen to video game music or pretend I'm in my own version of ExciteBike) Then crash on the sofa and watch part of whatever TV series I'm into on Netflix (just finished Burn Notice and In Plain Site) or pick up whatever video game I can…

Had to modify some things as I somehow hurt my shoulder, but I still got in there and did it. Squats - 85lbs Bench - 0 :( DB Rows - 25lbs - only thing I could do to not aggravate shoulder. Better than nothing. I think I accidentally upped my squats by 10lbs this round. Oh well still managed to get them up for all 5 each…

Well sadly I'm on a time-out for the rest of the week. I did something to my shoulder, not sure what, but it's in way too much pain to want to mess with it. I'm hoping by the weekend things will be worked out. Otherwise I'm going to cry - and not from pain, but from the frustration of not going to gym .. LOL

I'm in for group 2 .... Come at me! great idea JR! ScreenName: Lexagon Goal: lose weight, gain strength Past History Working Out: LiveFit, NROL4W, StrongLifts 5x5 (current) Equipment you have access to: most everything, have a gym membership Do you have a HRM/BodyMedia/Fitbit: HRM (not working currently) :(

Update on Progress (since I think the last one I posted was my first one ... haha!) Squat - 80lbs PR also OHP - 60lbs DL - 105lbs Bench - 70lbs Rows - 65lbs OHP is probably the absolute worst .. UGH! LOL Seems to be the one that most people have the most trouble though so I am just going to keep pushing through. I think I…

Congrats :) I started without the rack as well, always seemed to be taken.

I'm a big fan of light string cheese and turkey pepperoni. A little high in sodium, but nothing you can't combat with water :) There's some decent bars out there too.

I decided to forgo this mornings workout in favor of extra sleep - I've been exhausted all week. I need to work on getting to bed earlier I think. I am going to kill it in the gym tomorrow AM though ... watch out!

Made it through my first A & B ... loving it! :) My form is for *kitten* though unfortunately, so I'm still working on getting that up and better before moving into super heavy weights. Even with just the bar I've got DOMs I forgot could exist. I did better with eating than I thought I would yesterday. Probably overate a…

Welcome back JR, glad to see you starting to get back on track! You are 100% correct, sometimes you need to just take a little break and work on life. I've been there myself and finally got my sh&t figured out and came back better than ever. I know you can do this, I've seen what you can accomplish. Keep up the hard work!…

I started SL 5x5 this morning. Felt great to be back in the gym again lifting. But gah has my form slipped, gotta work on that. Squats especially, but I'm back at it so that counts. :)

I haven't played much this week, but I'm hoping to get some time in this weekend. Hoping to see a few more new faces around :)

Company of Heroes is definitely a good choice. Battlefield 3 if you like that sorta thing. Portal series was supposed to be good (I have it on Steam haven't started up yet) Diablo 3 is a lot of fun.

We are already friends, but for anyone else. I just started playing WoW again, with some D3 mixed in and a few FPS games here and there. My Xbox is always on, but typically for netflix. I haven't played anything there recently. I will play just about anything though. Esp if friends are involved. Sometimes just having fun…

Hey Magerz! :)

I'm usually on (when I can be) 7/8-10/11p PST and on/off all weekend if I'm not busy. I haven't been able to play much so I'm only lvl 12, but I've run into a couple people so far.

Lexagon - female warlock mage lvl 6 I think. All I have to say is I'm kinda liking starting somewhere new. I was so used to the old WoW that I got tired of testing out new chars because the quests were all the same. Now at least there's variety. Feel free to add me ... I saw Clyde on last night, but didn't think to msg ..…

Week 2: 1st June 2012 - 0lb 170.00 8th June 2012 - 0lb 170.00 15th June 2012 22th June 2012 29th June 2012 Same ole same ole .. but I guess that's better than a gain. And I did start exercising more. Fingers crossed for next week! :)

Lexagon - gnome warlock (female) Added everyone on the list.

I'll be setting mine up tonight probably .. finally got more wow time and everything updated (OMG what a process!) I'll update when I figure out name and what kinda char I want to make :)

I may start back up again ... I do kinda miss wow. I've been so wrapped up in D3 lately, but I do miss my warlock and priest. I'll have to think about it. :) I need me a little gnomie! :)

I will be with you starting Monday! :) I've been doing NROL4W, but I just can't focus on it for some reason. I enjoy the basics too much I think. Squats, DLs, Bench, OH, Rows, you know :) I'm really excited about starting this. Just need to get the nutrition side figured out ... blah! LOL

Good luck fellow gamer. Sounds like you a taking a step in the right direction. I'm a WoW/D3 kinda person. But I do play console games from time to time (just haven't found anything to hold my interest at this point). We actually have a few gaming groups if you are interested, for more motivation! :) And yes I'm jealous…

Let's get this started! :) 1st June 2012 - 0lb 170.00 8th June 2012 15th June 2012 22th June 2012 29th June 2012

My first guild on WoW was amazing. I actually miss them alot. We were an entire guild of female gamers, not hardcore, but geeky enough to play all the time. We had a few guys, but they knew their place. We eventually all just grew apart and drama kinda took over at one point. Which is a shame, because we all got along…

I love Battlefield, great game. Haven't played it in forever, but I definitely enjoy that more than COD (which I do also play) I would rather have to put some thought behind what I'm doing. :) This is pretty much me ... but then again most of the people I play with are guys, so I guess that explains it.

I'll give it a shot ... what've I got to lose ;) Oh yeah 7lbs!

If anyone is looking for some more casual friends shoot me a message. I still have a lvl 19 Wizard in Act 2 (trying to kill bilal ... ugh). I only get a couple hrs a week after work and gym if I'm lucky. Wouldn't mind finding some other people still playing at lower levels. :)

That's impressive and totally awesome! :)
