    12-Week Challenge: Week 5 Update

    @denice65 Well, I only went to the gym twice, but I did circuit training at home four times, as well as turned all the soil in the gardens, weeded, etc. to get everything ready for planting. My goal was to lose 3% BF, and I won't know if I'm there until the end of the challenge, when I get my...

    [12-Week Challenge] Week 6 and Quarter 2 Updates

    @manihoney I took my bike for a test ride this morning. . . I lasted sixteen minutes before my quads said, "Yeah, we're done." I don't remember riding a bike being so hard. lol Ten years ago I commuted to work 40 minutes each way on my bike. Eek.

    @maxicastag I'm glad I'm not the only one who does this! It's great motivation. Nothing motivates you more than yourself your own success.

    @dawn16 Thanks! I'm still kinda in shock. I didn't realize how much my stomach/waist has shrank until this morning.

    [12-Week Challenge] Week 6 and Quarter 2 Updates

    @denice65 MINI GOAL UNLOCKED! One of my mini goals since I started lifting weights was to be able to squat my body weight. Well, this week I did that. 165 x 9! That was exciting, especially since I haven't done back squats in ten weeks. The most I've ever done before that was 135 x 5. Ten...

    @novembermike Glad to hear you're feeling better. A week of rest can do wonders. And have fun with the trainer!

    @marcin Thank you! I went down a size, actually. That was a happy fitting room dance.

    [12-Week Challenge] Week 10 Update

    @denice65 Tested my 1RM on Friday. I did well. I had PBs in both squat and bench. Squat: 195 lbs BP: 105 lbs DL: 225 lbs I'm really hoping to see my squat get up to 205 soon, and my BP to 115. I tried for 115 a few times, but that sucker only got up halfway. No amount of breathing and...

    [12-Week Challenge] Week 8 Update

    @denice65 I'm excited! I took progress photos today and there's definitely a difference. Mostly in my back and stomach. My goal was to lose 3% body fat, and I am pretty sure I'll be meeting that goal, if not surpassing it. I have a Bod Pod Assessment booked for June 13th, which isn't the end...

    @creation61 I'm not too far from you. I agree, it was super hot with super high humidity. I may have drank my share of mimosas as well. Though I tracked them.

    @dwebb13 And statistically you maintain when you go slow and steady.

    @dwebb13 I love recomps. I've been doing a sloooooooow cut, like 200 cal. cut. I've lost numerous inches. I've got a waist. I've got a V-taper. I've got a nice perky ass. Sure, I'm still overweight, but slow and steady is where its at, in my books.

    Musings my s/o overheard from a trainer

    @m21820 Not me. Mine were perky as could be. I kinda like 'em like this, though. They're like ski slopes. Heh.

    Musings my s/o overheard from a trainer

    @dawn16 I'm 33, and it's happening. :( They're big, though, so they were bound to do it sooner than later. The undersides of my boobs touch the skin over my ribs now. No idea when it happened. Just recently I noticed when putting on a shirt that has a built in bra that I hadn't worn in...
