I was called "Skinny Girl"
So I was at my boyfriend's house and his brother came over and said "What's up skinny girl". WHOA! SO NOT USED TO THAT. Alot of people have been commenting on my weightloss, and I'm never quite sure how to feel only b/c I'm not used to it. It's uncomfortable because it's new, but I love it.

How did building muscle effect your weight?
I hit a plateau about every 10 pounds. I hit one at 200 and now I'm hitting one early at 194. I'm thinking maybe it is because of my lifting. How did your lifting affect the scale? Did it go up and/or level off as u built muscle and then fall back down as more fat was being burned?

IF YOU HAVE EVER BEEN CALLED A NAME U UNDERSTAND
People are funny. Your big, so they tell you "you're too big". Then you lose weight and tone up and they say "you got too small, you're too toned". LOL, make up your mind and then keep it to yourself LOL. I'm getting smaller and building muscle, not because I "want to look like a dude", but because I'm smart enough to know…

Trying to tighten my "bingo wings"
If you watch Wendy Williams, you know that your bingo wings are the saggy part on top of your tricep. You know, the part that jiggles when you wave. I am trying to get rid of the jiggle. Any advice.

DEPRESSION NSV!
Since I have been working out regularly, I have not felt I needed my medicine. When I get stressed, sad, or overwhelmed about something (and when I do it's about SOMETHING now, not for no reason) I work out. That seems to be great medicine. My doctor may disagree, because it seems sometimes they WANT to keep folks on meds.…

NSV...I WORKED OUT...IN FRONT OF MEN!
I used to be so self conscious that I wouldn't work out in front of anybody. Then, being at a women's college, I got used to working out in front of women. However, I have always been self conscious working out around men (except mine). Yesterday I was in the gym alone bench pressing when this guy walked in. I had…
