Thanks Rae....great advise. Appreciate it..:)

Second night of my lifting endeavor... Man, am I sore! hehe But, I really think I LOVE it. My workout just breezes by when I'm lifting, whereas all that cardio just seemed to lag on forever. I used to do about 1/2 hour cardio and 1/2 hour weight machines/dumbells, but lifting less weight. Have one other question. Lifting…

This is awesome....just what I'm looking for. Thanks ladies!!

Here's one other question...kinda dumb I guess, but do you workout with someone for all this lifting? I find I'd really like to have a permanent spotter so I can push myself more. But, omg, I'm scared to death to ask one of the guys standing around to help. Don't want to bother them...:blushing:

No, you were right the first time. I'm curious how much as well. Thanks ladies....gives me a lot to consider and incorporate....:) Keep 'em coming....

TUNA!!! Me loves...could eat it everyday. Just toss it on bread with some relish and low cal mayo. Mmmmmm

kids, kids and more kids. 1 hour left until it's quiet.....

Incredible...great work!

I'm in... CW 166 Goal by 4/1 159

Hi, I'm 46 too. Welcome....sending friend request.

^^^^ THIS

ME....:( I think I have 200 calories left for supper...lol.

5'10" Going for 150-155.....I'm 46.

I've learned to never mention anything about working out/weight loss, etc. on facebook. People aren't interested. Lots of reasons for that. That's why MFP is sooooo fun...:)

I love them.....problem is that I can't eat just one. I prefer to devour the entire package of them. :( So, I don't buy them anymore..lol

That's awesome.....great job! :)

I've had knee problems for years, so I've stuck to stationary bikes and weights. BUT, I wanted to try the shred, so I went for it. The jumping moves were hard on my knees so I bought a rebounder....did wonders. Then I was reading about the barefoot runners, and one guys said it helped his knees to run barefoot. At the…

My hubby.....he's the best.

Can we have a Red Rider Category? Because, I'm not sportin' the big guns yet....I just have the beginner's version. :tongue:

Tell them to take a long walk off a short peer...lol. But, seriously, don't let their vanity mess with your head. Size 2??? Good grief. Do your own thing, work at a healthy life style, and just IGNORE their snide comments. Easy for me to say, I know. I'm not in your position. But, it sounds like you're doing great....and…

My Hubby is only 6'2" and he weighs about 190....I think he could use come weight on him. I can't imagine 6'4" at 179. Won't be much left of you!

I have horrible knees, but I tried the 30ds barefoot, and cannot believe the difference with my knee pain. It's almost non-existent! Would have never believed it. Might give it a shot. A rebounder also does wonders...:)

Day 18....have lost about an inch in each thigh. Stomach/thighs/breasts measuring the same, but I've moved my belt buckle over a notch, and i was able to wear a pair of dress slacks I've not worn for a long time. So, yeah, it's working...not so sure about my ability to measure properly...lol. Have lost about 7 pounds, but…

Thanks ladies (and men :wink: ). Sometimes, you just have to confess and get it off your chest. <deep breath> Ok, I feel better now...moving on...and taking some of the advise you've all offered. :flowerforyou:

Well, before the Shred, I went to the gym 3-4 days a week. After I finish the 30 days, I'm going back to the gym 3 days a week and am going to fill in the days in between with Ripped in 30 and Six Week Six Pack. I'm also going to go for heavier lifting during my gym visits. From what I've read, that seem to be the way to…

bahahahahaha....I can so relate.

Excellent job! Congrats..:)

I've never even seen a $150 bra. I think you should model one for us cuz it must be awesome. I'm a C cup, and have never spent over $25, but I always wait for sales.

It's not out of "mortification of NORMAL BODILY FUNCTIONS" that I directed my post toward women. I'm 46 and married...at this point, I have no qualms whatsoever about discussing anything with males. I just don't think they understand this issue as well as females, so I directed my post toward women. "period"...bleh, I…

No, you're right...the problem is the quantity. That big 'ol bowl in the picture is not much of an exaggeration. Seriously.
