  • I've looked up some different programs and decided against the ankle weights. Most of you feel they aren't needed and you're probably correct. I will save my money and utilize the dumbbells we already have and my own body weight. Thanks for the input!
  • My benefit is to have some resistance. I've tried resistance bands and I don't like messing with them. I figured ankle weights would give the same effect without having a band get in my way. Seems like nobody really cares for them though. My son has some dumbbells I'm going to use as well. I've already looked up hasfit and…
  • Any you tube videos to recommend for workouts safe for ankle weights?
  • Thanks to all on your concern with wearing them while walking. I had no idea it was harmful. I will definitely not do that! I will wear only with at home exercises.
  • Thanks for the advice! I will look into the adjustable weight ones.
  • Bodybuilding.com has some great workout plans for beginners. They have videos of proper form for machines as well. Stregth training will definitely reduce sagging skin with weight loss. Also aim to lose slower rather than quicker to help your skin keep up with the weight loss. Good luck to you.
  • I totally know this!!!! I've only lost 20 pounds so far, but mine has decreased quite a bit. I still have about 32 pounds to go so I'm hoping it goes away completely by the time I get there. That hump is the reason I keep longer hair and only wear a ponytail with certain shirts that hide it.

  • I've had some shorts hanging in the back of my closet that made my muffin top seem extra big because they were so tight. They also we're tight on my thighs. Its been a few summers since I've been able to wear them comfortably. Yesterday I slipped them on and felt comfortable all day! No petruding muffin top, no lines on my…
