this is what I thought, but couldn't find a lever?! wtf?! while i've got ppl's attention, is there a seperate machine for seated leg curls vs. extensions, or can you do them on the same one? I just did lying ones for my hamstring cuz I know how and where that machine works, one blunder / day is all I can handle! lol

I did look at the video, issue is this machine was different, there was no safety handle. It looked like this: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e7/SeatedCalfRaiseMachineExercise.JPG/350px except the bar with the weights was higher, usually there's a diagram and write up on the machines, this one had…

I'de love some friend adds :)

Im going to be starting this, would love some friends who are doing it with me :)

thanks guys! :)

thanks guys! Here's today's pics and more from day 1, I'll put them all together in order: Before: During: Now:

myself and a co-worker may be starting this program in the next couple of week, I'll let you know if we do :)

for many people avoiding will lead to a binge. I think moderation is key. Pick the one dessert you would enjoy the most and have a piece. Try to make some up in exercise and other healthy choices during the day, but if you're a bit over, oh well. You could do a combo plate with a few small pieces of things if you want to…

I'm guilty of looking at lots of success stories and not posting, but I couldn't resist saying WOW, CONGRATS!! to you! You are an inspiration, you should be so proud of yourself! You look AWESOME!!

I didn't mind in the beginning, but Now I just wanna keep going and get to my goals ASAP. So I take them when life gets in the way, ie: sunday we'll be at a birthday party during regular workout time, I haven't had a day off for ten, so that'll be it :) I'll also just do a lesser activity ie: walk, yardwork, etc. glad to…

I started hitting the gym mid december, but not watching diet till joining here Jan.20/11 SW: 174lbs here I am 9 weeks later CW: 161.7 down 12lbs. Feeling so much better!

another no bottom gal here!

I'm on week 4 right now, it's definately the worst! lol ah well good cause!

Agreed you'll be much hotter when you're all grown up!

this is a great thread! lol 1. I also have a friend who I always hope will be heavier than me. Everytime I notice she loses weight I am happy for her, but terrified of her getting thinner than me! lol 2. I'm jealous of my sister in law 3. I would like to see my body from the perspective from someone else (somehow pictures…

probably 4-5lbs but lots of inches! :D I'll post pics when I'm done.

this seems to be one of those things that varies from person to person. You might need to play with it to figure out what works for you. I know I need to have something in my stomach awhile before going or I just feel sick. and if I eat a whole meal then I feel sick. Another point is your body seems to adjust. I go to the…

I am starting to like it more and more each day! Someday (closwer to goal) I hope to love it! It takes time. I keep reminding myself that just like pregnancy, my body is undergoing pregnancy, and I need to be patient, kind, and accepting of it while this happens.

The last couple weekends we have gone out, so those are the really high days. The main day I have a big deficit is Thursdays as I do my TRX class and cardio and there's no way I can eat back all those calories. The deficit is definately over 3500. Thanks for the advice thus far, I will for sure keep all of it in mind, and…

so happy for you!!

wow I guess it really is a stumper! lol

thank goodness for this post! I've always wondered!

totally going to add you, I started at 174 and have plateued at 9lbs loss, but hoping to get to 130lbsish If you're just starting out I would recommend doing 1 st week staying at or slightly under alloted calories week 2 increased exercise week 3 focus on water week 4 try something new (ie: sugar free day, meatless day,…

I go to a TRX class once a week for 45 minutes, LOVE it!! would be hard to describe the torture i mean exercises she puts us through! lol but I can try if you want, is there any specific muscle group you're working on?

Manitoba :)

there's a definite difference! I think you need to toss that shirt though, it's not all that flattering! Congrats! And keep up the good work!

what about if you continously eat a fair amount of salt, would you be less affected by the fluctation? you should still see loss no?

possible but very challenging! I would lower your expectation a touch.

yup. looks like my body is gearing up to ov now, just had to complain first! lol still annoying this is going to be a 40ish day cycle, but at least I'll get af less often if it continues this way.
