WLF's Resident Saint's Under 200lb's Diary!!!!!

Well everyone..I just had the cheesecake..and... it was so good... it didn't want the paparazzi to intrude on it so...no pictures..but damn if I'm not happy right now. LOL... that's my cheating for today... Have a good day and be sure to be here next week! :D
 
Mornin everyone! So... I changed my avatar...it's kinda small...need to fix that. hope everyone likes it. I'm finding that I'm so engrained with the idea of having to workout without a video to help guide me. Though, I will say that I seem to be working harder without the video. just pushing myself without longer breaks is hard... I haven't started loosing again just yet, but I have been bulking up with muscle a WHOLE lot more...so that makes me happy at least! How are you guys doing today?
 
It's just odd because, I always looked at Cardio as the way to go..but I see now that helped me lose initially..and now that I'm closer to my goal..weight training is what's gonna help tone. My abs are starting to take shape. I've NEVER had abs before. never a six pack, always a keg! LOL. I find myself now addicted to tight shirts...specially around my chest and arms
 
Well and so you should be - your looking damn good - be proud and show it off - the first thing i did when I started loosing weight was become more proud of my boobs - LOL - I love wearing shirts that are tight up their and enhance them
 
Thanks for the compliment! This is the first time that I've ever worn "Muscle" shirts... well..tight shirts..and was proud of it!
 
Goooooooooooooooood Morning Weight Loss FORUMS!!!!!!! My peeps! I'm in an odd mood...it's weird! It's good..but weird! Did my cardio this morning... it went good... I'm starting to gain a little weight but I think it's because it's an increase in my weight training. I've increased the weights I'm using, and I've also increased my calories at TomO and Leigh P's suggestion... hopefully I'll start seeing the decline in weight over the next week or so... but I got 2 more sized Medium shirts and I'm :eek: liking the way I look in the mirror... My abs are really starting to have defined lines where abs are developing! Can I explain how excited that makes me? No....I can't! LOL

I know EXACTLY how you feel, man. It's a great feeling, that's for sure. I got rid of a bunch of my double-X shirts, too.
 
Tom... if you're not now..have you ever considered being a trainer/motivational speaker for weight loss?! You give GREAT advice
 
Good morning everyone! Did my weight training this morning. It went quite well...my arms are burning. And I'm now changing my sit ups in the evening. I'm now doing crunches with my legs elevated. And WOW last night my abs hurt. I was telling MTM&K that if my legs, thighs, chest, and arms stayed the same, I wouldn't care...I want this overhang on my stomach GONE... better to start focusing on them now!

LOL, you're the second person here who's asked me that.

I consider myself far too ignorant to train anyone. I have a smattering of knowledge that I've picked up here and there, but I wouldn't dare train anyone until I knew at least as much as Steve. I've been burned myself by too many ignorant trainers.

Maybe when I retire in 7 years . . . I could be a personal trainer for "old fogies." :)

That's neat seeing your abs. . . mine are still lost. :mad:

I know what you mean though.... I went to Golds Gym and they told us "Yeah, you'll get your own personal trainer and EVERYTHING". Come to find out, after paying WAY too much money... the "trainers" were people that had lost weight at the gym (whether they used supplements or starved themselves) and decided..hey...I want a job here. NO certifications whatso ever. So stupid!
 
And of the ones who DO have certifications, most are nincompoops who have plunked down $300 and taken a test. The stuff I see them doing with their clients day after day at the gym really makes me laugh.

Hey Tammy! NO problem...not sure what sparked me coming in and posting agian... but it's fun to get back in the swing of things. so many seem to be gone, Pequin, OhHappyDay, Tomble (though I talk to him occasionally)... Thanks for the compliment... wish the avy could be a bit bigger... I seem so small..but hey..being small is a GOOOOOOOD thing. So much smoke out today... (if you're not keeping up with the news... find any article about florida's fires and I'm RIGHT there! yay....
 
so i've spent waaay too long sitting here in front of the computer now, but i've read up on your journal and all i can say is WOW. i see that you've had some tough times (just like me!) but you've made it through. i just hope that i can be as successful as you have been!!
