I have just started the New Rules of Lifting for Women and love it. I am also doing a course to become a Personal Trainer and everything I am learning points to strength training being much more effective to tone muscle and reduce fat. Go for it. I am sure you will see the benefits

Thanks for all the advice. I guess the message is to enjoy the food and allow for it another time and don't beat myself up!

lovely smile - goes right to your eyes :-)

Fluff/hair in the bathroom - hate it!

Well done. I have just come back on here and am wondering why I ever stopped. Everyone is such an inspiration.

Wow - awesome. What an inspiration!

OK, gonna give it a go. I am really bad at sit ups and get a sore neck but need to strengthen the abs so here goes.

Thanks. I think I need to read it again to take it all in but it looks like something I could follow.

Run through it as long as they are just 'sore'. Maybe take it a little easier and do a good warm up

What an awesome first step you have made. I think that is often the hardest part! Now that you are on here you will get so much support it really helps to keep you motivated. Good luck, will be here to cheer you on and I need all the help and motivation I can get too.

Well done! Just buy a good belt for now and go for the baggy look ...lol

I'm a wine rep. Very tempting products!

I am on my own and although I would love to find that 'someone' I am losing weight and exercising to feel better for ME

Fantastic. What an inspiration !!!!

Hi, Well done for sharing all that and, no, none of it is inappropriate. We all do things in our own way and some feel more able to share than others. Good luck with your goals, you've taken a big step today

Wow, ao inspiring!! Lots of good tips as well - thanks. I will now try to not eat my exercise calories!!
