I didn't notice that you were in Pittsburgh, but I know that since you're talking Yuengling you must be a PA gal. (Though I try to support the local Lion Brewery - Stegmaier brand myself.) Always nice to see a fellow Pennsylvanian in the ranks.

Women will always add about 10lbs onto their own body when they look at themselves. Trust me, compaired to 'most' women you're in fantastic shape.

However, of course there is always room for improvement with every body, to get rid of the little fat deposit around your back will require a small cut in body fat but if your stick to a full body workout that should come off easy enough, I doubt you'll need much of a calorie deficit to do that either

I think the last time I got my body fat tested it was 25%, which is pretty high. That fat around my back has got to go...I can't cut anymore calories, so I guess full body workout is gonna have to do it. I should probably thrown some high intensity cardio or something in there? I wish there was a specific "back fat" exercise, haha. I'd do it all day everyday.:p

It seems as though there's a few of us Pennsylvanian's floating around this thread surprisingly.

I can't say that I've ever heard of Stegmaier...at least it's not Rolling Rock that you're supporting though! Although a lot of people around here are big fans of it, it does not appeal to me one bit.

Me neither - Steg's a decent, cheap brand but they recently started rolling out some seasonal beers, some of which have been outstanding. Past that, I've been known to visit the brewpubs in the Philly burbs for the really good stuff - Victory, Sly Fox, Gen'l Lafayette and the like.

Last time I was in Pittsburgh was to see Cirque du Soleil perform Quidam. Spent most of my time at the Foundry Aleworks, which I understand has since shuttered its doors. If you can get your hands on any of East End's brews (they're located in eastern Pgh), do so - Scott's Blackstrap Stout is nothing short of amazing.

Yer killing me. I had a torrid love affair with ole "33" for many years. I've moved onto better pasteurs like Harp and Michael Shay's.

I'll just change the subject from hating on Rolling Rock to asking what your diet and training routines look like.
 
Rolling Rock is definitely an acquired taste. I personally neither loved it or hated it... but i did abuse it. I must admit, the beer carries a flavor similar to the smell of the Loyalhanna, kind of like rust.
 
My diet has been a low calorie one, normally 1000-1300, but that was to get the weight off. I'm probably going to have to up it to tone up, right?

I haven't been lifting or anything due to the inconvience of summer classes, but when I was I was doing a day for legs, a day for back/biceps, a day for chest/shoulders, and a bit of abs/cardio thrown in at the end of the workout. During summer class I was only doing abs and cardio...normally run/walk on the treadmill, walk on incline, and elliptical, just whatever I was in the mood for to get some kind of workout with the short amount of time I had. But now I have all the time in the world (besides work), so I can add lifting back in...
 
You might want to check out The New Rules of Lifting, by Lou Schuler and Alwyn Cosgrove. I've been doing the Break-In program and have seen some good results. Getting ready to graduate to the Fat Loss I program next week. (There's also strength and hypertrophy workouts too.) While the book is pitched to guys I think the information it presents applies to both genders.
