Going into week 2 of my FT workout and boy do I already notice a difference! I really needed this change in my routine.:) I can't wait until the end of my 8 weeks to see what progress I have made!

That's awesome!
I noticed a big difference after just 2 weeks on my mass building program. It's amazing how quickly you can see results!

Yay and congrats Damselfly, cupcake, and Jonathan!!
I had my husband take my measurements this morning, but I've not compared them yet. I went shopping with my mom and son for school clothes for him. My baby starts preschool next month. WAAHHH!

It is so great to see what you are all accomplishing! In this day and age where you hardly have enough time to tie your shoes in the morning, it is good to know that you are all taking time for yourselves and your health! Good job!!

It is great to hear what you folks are accomplishing. It is amazing, this stuff works, and the neat part is it is no "fad" diet. This is lean tissue you will keep, and a lifestyle change that will not only get you the lean physique you desire, but make you healthy also! Congrats to your accomplishments. Folks like you make our "job" worthwhile.

Hmmm... I wonder when my tag will change from ft Popular Status to ft Professional... I just noticed that. (shrug) Oh well. I guess it doesn't really matter. It's all about the muscles and healthy lifestyle.
Thanks, BB1. We appreciate all that you and the other mods do for us. Some of ask questions that have already been asked, but most of us appreciate your assistance. We couldn't do it without y'all.

thanks bb1fit, and it's really the other way around :) thanks for giving great advice. Some people do ask me what I'm on, and it's surprising that when I tell them that I'm not "on" anything, just the regular, natural way , they just refuse to believe me. It's surprising because it's really quite logical, but they don't want to believe it.
jonathan: mini-cupcake..that almost makes me sound miniscule. which reminds me..now one of my goals is to be 5'10" tall . Maybe if I hang from the chinning bar with leg weights on, I'll grow taller...hmmmm...

Congrets all. It does work . i hope everybody's here in a year.
Jonathan, you'll turn blue in a day or so.
Shoes and tops optional Anni. Just like Carnival Cruise Lines. No flip flops though.

Is that MY really cute profile? :love:
I like the mini-cupcakes. I can pop the whole thing in my mouth at one time. LOL You are not miniscule, just smaller and still VERY cute! (You mentioned that you had lost more weight, and you haven't mentioned "blimpie-size" lately.) Did I mention I love the newer pic with the pink shirt? I can't quite read it though. It says, "I need to shake my", but I can't tell what the picture is. :big_smile: Granted, I can see WHERE the picture is, but not WHAT it is. LOL
As far as the stretching goes, if you try the hanging idea, make sure you hold on with your arms OVER the bar so the bar is across your upper chest and arm pits. If you hold on with your hands, then you may just end up with long arms like an orangatan. That wouldn't be so good a result. :laugh::laugh:
Also, didn't they have a stretching machine in Princess Bride? We could get one of those and try it. :angry:

ah yes...the pink shirt :P man, you must've really looked at it closely :big_smile: it says: "i need to shake my..."
and then there is a drawing of a bone smack dab in the middle of uhm..a couple of things! Interpret it as you may :P

Ahhh... A bone. Go tit! Er... Got it! Sorry, I have a tough time typing that for some reason. :love::love:
Nah... With the Pro Upgrade, you can look at the big version of the pics. It's easier to read that way.
I guess, if you shake your bone, a dog will come running. If you shake what it's pointing to, then the two legged dogs will come running. :big_smile:
