30 lbs 3 1/2 months with face pics
Today I hit the 30 lb mark. I have a hard time telling the difference from day to day but when I look back at my picture right around Christmas time I can really tell the difference. I have much further to go but it is a very good start! It is such a good feeling when people start noticing the changes. It keeps me…

The New Rules of Lifting for Women
I just ordered this book and started reading it over the last few days. If anything I am more confused now than ever. I joined a gym about a month ago and wanted to start adding in weights/strength. Basically this book says step away from the tredmill. So are we supposed to NOT do cardio? It is basically saying for years…

Broken or sprained
Hi, I just joined a gym a few weeks ago and finally got into an exercise routine then last night I missed the bottom two steps and came down on my ankle and either broke or sprained it. I know everyone is going to say go to the Dr to get xrays but I would like opinions of people who may have had the same injury. I dont…

results?
Hi, I am just joining a gym for the first time and I am interested in signing up for the body pump classes. What do you all think of the classes? Good results? Weight loss and toning?
-
Has anyone done Bodypump?
And if so did you get good results? I think I am going to start this class after the first of the year but I am wondering if it is worth it or if there are better classes out there. I think i need the class setting rather than just going to the gym not knowing what I am doing.

drinks/weight gain
Ok I know that physically its not possible to gain 4 or 5 lbs from one night of having drinks so I am just wanting to know if it is common for some of you that after a night of drinks you weigh a few pounds more the next day and how long that few pounds takes to come off seeing it should just be water weight or something.…

Pics are in profile. Yesterday I posted that I was going camping in a month and have not wore a bikini in 10 to 15 years but after losing a little more than 25 lbs I thought what the hell! The one from yesterday was the first pink top and i would say the feedback was about 60/40 of if i should wear it or not. The ones that…

I'm sure I may catch flack from this post but I have seen a few times people saying you are eating too much fruit. I can't agree with that.
