  • I have really hit it hard and I am moving up fast as far as the amount of weight I'm lifting now. However, I think b/c I have gone so fast I am finding my grip is weak like you said and I'm fighting with my tendons to maintain the control and lift.

  • Alright I want to thank everyone. I did my workout today and the numbness was at a very low and manageable limit. Today I wore the new balance shoes and I wiggled the toes on the right foot and everything was fine.

  • Thanks for the advice guys and I'll keep at it. I think going forward I'll stick with the New Balance shoes and see if it improves. If it doesn't I will be doing some shoe shopping :)

  • At the very least measure your food when possible. If you can weigh it that is even better. As others have said it's the best way to get the most accurate calorie counts for the foods you intake. I rarely weigh my food but I make up for it. I do Cardio 4/5 times a week on top of lifting weights 4 times a week w/ added…

  • I want to thank you all for the GREAT SUPPORT. I must admit this has been the best website, experience and overall fun I've ever had dieting. Sometimes I can't even believe I'm saying that haha.
