I have found that I dont even miss cake or bread anymore and I thought I would die without them. Definitely get tested though.

This gives me hope thank you, I use a set of Tanita scales and measure every wednesday morning. Maybe i should ignore the numbers a little while and just go off the measurements and how I look. Thank you a lot xx

I am also wondering about body fat percentage, have been weight training a while now, since March. The lowest my BF has been is 25%, today it was back up to 28%, I have lost inches and have built muscle, so I'm a little confused as to how/why it is going up.

Thank you - Just for everyone's info: I ate gluten and I had my blood test done, it showed raised numbers - something scientific about 'inconclusive results which could be either way', Doc said cut out all wheat, in 3 months we will reintroduce wheat and redo the tests. It hasn't been 3 months yet and I am still have…

Thank you :) I will check it all out

I am 5ft3.5 CW is 136 although my GW has always been 120. I do worry that this would look too small however and will decide when I reach this.

Great post! Thank you!

Thank you all for your info, i am looking in to the starting strength book now

I relied on LS for my bikinis for summer, everywhere else that does my size are older looking bikinis with bigger covering pants :(
