I guess I am more confused than ever lol I'm trying to lose another 60 lbs or so. Is strength training the way to go or not?

I have a few so far. Only been at this for about six weeks though. I got my wedding ring off today without licking my finger first. I'm sleeping so much better. I have my strength training routine down and have started increasing weights week to week. I'm no longer embarrased or anxious about stepping foot in a gym. The…

Thank you everyone for your help. I think I will just continue to strength train and not worry about it. The most important part is to focus on getting stronger and preserve the muscle mass that I do have.

I just started strength training about 3 1/2 weeks ago and I love it! It feels good when you can move up in weights. Some exercises I haven't moved past where I started just yet, but others I've increased weight week over week. For example, I still can't do a bicep curl over 8lbs, but for the leg press, I started at 55lbs…

Thanks for the encouragement! I do use a food scale/measuring cups for most items, but I should probably use it as much as I possibly can. I've heard about the book about lifting for women, maybe I will pick that up! I'm new to all of this, so I should learn as much as I can :)

Pros: 24/7 access Never very busy - I think the most I've seen is 5 people at one time Very close to home Cons: Next to a Dialysis Center and you just see people wheeled in and out on stretchers all day long...so sad :( Hardly ever staffed No classes offered There's a creepy lady that always stares at me lol

You look great!!! You can definitely see a difference! I want my tummy to look like yours - jealous!! I finish Day 30 tomorrow, so I will be posting on Saturday! We did it!!

Thanks for posting this! You look great! I am on Day 15 of the 30DS (L2D5) and it's one tough workout! In the first 10 days, I lost 4.8 lbs and 7.25 inches! It really does work! I'm always scouring the message boards to keep me encouraged...and you did just that! Way to go!

You guys are awesome! I'm 30 :)

I've never been told I look like anyone...booo...maybe one of you sees something I don't LOL

Just hang in there! It does get better. I did L2D3 this morning and I'm sore. When I started Level 1, I thought my legs were going to give out on me every time I got up to walk. But, towards the end of the first level, I was really getting used to the workout. When I switched to Level 2, my arms feel like jello now. I…

I've always had big thighs and I hate them!!!

I just fisnished L1D10 today and start Level 2 tomorrow. I hope I have great results like this! I can't wait!!

I am on L1D9 and am already starting to feel better and my belly is not as bloated and puffy as it was. Feel free to friend me and we can follow eachother's progress together :)

Ripped!

First one - definitely!
