Unexpected from lifting
Hi, Just wanted to get a post going to encourage newbies to start lifting. So what is one unexpected result from lifting you experienced?

Before and during - 30 lbs
I read this boards frequently when I need a little extra motivation. I am not finished myself (not even close) but I reached my first big goal yesterday - 30 pounds. Although I was embarrassed to post pictures on my blog - I did it anyway, knowing that if I just inspire one person, it is totally worth it. So without…
