I do not have ankle weights, but i am interested in the Brazil Butt Lift exercises. Does it JUST work your legs and butt or is it an all over toning program?

Thank you!

I do these occasionally, but its never my buns that feel the burn, its my legs. I want something more targeted i guess, and possibly less on the knees then squats (or maybe i just dont know the proper form for squats and it causes pain in my knees?)

Thank you.. gonna look into this.

ALOT OF my lifting comes in this form. my son is 2 and a beastly 40lbs. I throw him over my shoulder, grab his ankles behind my back, let him slide down and before he touches the ground i grab him up through my legs and throw him back over my shoulder and do it again and again. I cannot do the pushups much less with him on…

I have limited space. and the ONLY time i can attempt lifting/excercise is a brief period of time in the morning when i wake up early before my son (He's 2). so i cannot be loud, or use a DVD. Thats why i am attempting lifting and specific exercises at the moment.

I tried googling Stronglift 5x5 but couldnt really find any info. on it that generally pointed me in the right direction. is starting strength a book or dvd?

How do you do a dead lift? I am not to the point in my leg and strength yet to do lunges with the 15lb weights, although i have done them with the 5lb weights. *Killer*

Bump, i have this DVD and have only attempted it one or two days. i have the deflated balloon alos that i am trying to get rid of. :)

I am the exact same... shoe size and all!

I too think i am built this way. I am 137.8 and still in 9/10 pants. I have the love handles and lower belly that i fight with though.

Bump. I actually have some photos to share but do not know how to. I am 5'10. Starting weight: 196lbs Current weight: 137.8lbs Goal Weight: 125-130

After I lost the first 40lbs.... it slowwwwwed way down. ive gone many months without loosing anything. But changes things around some days does me justice. i've lost between 55-60lbs total.. and have about 8lbs till my original goal weight but alot more toning to do.

Ive lost 55lbs... it has been a longer journey for me because i cheat on multiple occasions. i dont always deprive myself. But on a typical maintaining day I would stay around 1200. i'm 5'9- began at 195 and am currently 139.8.

My goal weight is 135

is it possible for a food to contain traces of nuts and not state on the ingredients? the only reason I ask is because my son had another allergy break out, and ive read the ingredients on EVERYTHING before he ate it. The only things i can think of is A) the food had traces and just did not state that or B) some how cross…

weight gained during pregnancy between 65-75lbs. ended my pregnancy at around 230. I am 5'9ish Began my weight loss journey between 209-205lbs Am currently 146

I have not stepped foot in a gym... and have lost about 57lbs starting weight 203lbs...now 146.

What is an IGE score? (I assume after testing this week, his allergist will explain this to me, but just curious)... What about tashes? does your son develop the hives and such?

Thank you! stress eating is definitally a life long struggle. i think you are completely right when you say to remind yourself. Some days i can remind myself BETTER.. and some days i COMPLETELY fall off the band wagon... but I've found more recently that I will pick myself back up to eating better, in time... in which when…

Thank you so much! its wonderfully inspiring and helpful to hear how others struggle with stress eating as well... and i have a WAYS to go until i feel like im back in control of MY life... i still feel like i am under that cloud since i allow my sons father to control some of my emotions and pain still....but one day...…

Thank you all. its a VERY hard line to cross and deal with... hense one of the reasons my stress level stays high.. and its taking me alot longer to reach goal and get to where i need to be. :)

Thank you for this! i am so glad you shared! Well... he took off when my son was 15 months after i had already put him through rehab and he got addicted one week after completely the program. he was gone until a few months ago and he has moved back to town and is trying to 'be a better dad'. i have given wayyy too much…

Thank you! allthough stress eating is definitally a life long thing im afraid... i have it ALOT more under control now than i did.... with the help of cleaner eating and educating myself MORE on clean eating. i know i have alot more to learn... but hopefully in time..
