Try some tricep dips on your stairs or a chair! Try them with both wide and narrow arms. When you work one are of muscle you must work its compliment; so therefore do some bicep curls and hammer curls along with your tricep work.

What a great committment to make for the holidays! Running the mile won't be the challenge for me.

Would you mind sharing what all you did to reach your goal weight? Workouts (gym? Turbo Fire? P90X?) ? Diet? Shakes (Shakeology??) ....etc. How do you think MFP helped you with this journey? Do you attribute your losses to the tool? or mainly to its support system with the friends you've made?? Just curious - I'm a former…

Congrats momma!! You will have no problem dropping the weight while nursing! However....the real test will be when you are done nursing. It will be tough because you still might feel as hungry as you are now but won't be burning the nursing calories anymore. Therefore I would focus more on your exercise right now than…
