How about inches? Deni...i clicked on your picture. Oh my god! What do you do??? I'm starting to do a lot more muscle training...will this help me look hella toned like u?

A good trainer should know what that means. ============ Quoting from dfly411: Somebody please tell me that the hand held fat reading thingys are full of crap.

Gigi4444 - you can join in - Sailn_lady just joined in as a late start. if you want to lose bodyfat and look more 'toned (muscular) this is a great plan. It is actaully based on a plan figure competitiors use.

Look at all those inches disappearing:big_smile: Amy, you're doing an amazing job keeping all these folks motivated. I think I'm most proud of msmogreen who, although hasn't lost pounds, has managed to grow her own posse of wt training womens:dumbbell::dumbbell: wish I lived close enough to join the posse!!! Keep up the great work everyone...I'm hoping to be back in the gym next week and I'm looking forward to trying out Amy's killer workouts (once I get back into the groove) -------------- Even if you are on the right track, you will get run over if you just sit there. -------------- The harder you fall, the higher you bounce

jonshez Posts: 273 Joined: 2007/01/14	2007/04/08, 06:41 AM Stats sent, and for anyone else who's interested here are mine so far. bicep r 14.25" l 14.25" thigh r 25.75" l 25.50" calves r 15.75" l 16.00" weight 220lbs chest over 42.50" chest under 39.00" Hips 41.00" A little disappointed with the weight to be honest, although the inches indicate I'm still losing fat so I must be gaining some muscle. Even so, the next few weeks I'm going to concentrate on cardio with the weights to maintain, rather than what I feel I've been doing - concentrating on the weights with a little cardio thrown in. Previous stats bicep r 13.75" l 13.75" thigh r 25.5" l 25" calves r 17" 17" weight 221lbs chest over 42.5" under 40.5" waist 39" hips 44" And the first 2 weekly stats. bicep r 13.5" l 13.5 thigh r 25.75" l 25" calves r 16.5" 16" Weight 223lbs Chest over 44" Chest under 40.5" Waist 42" Hips 44" And the starting stats bicep r 14" l 14.5 thigh r 27" l 26" calves r 17.25" 17.5" Weight 230lbs Chest over 43.5" Chest under 40.5" Waist 44" Hips 45"

asimmer Posts: 8,201 Joined: 2003/01/07	2007/04/09, 09:43 AM Everyone wha has sent stats in so far - you are doing great! I know it is frustarting because sometimes it isn't as fast as you want, and sometimes the scale refuses to budge - but you have all lost inches - and that is great! i will wait a day or two so the rest of the gang can send in their stats and then I will post a group update. Jon - you are funny, you just posted in the small victories thread about how your wife says you look great and how you had to buy smaller clothes - quit worrying so much about the scale - you have lost inches and it is showing! Alright - i think everyone is ready for a switch in routine - so be sure to check the cardio and lifting threads for a new schedule/routine!:) -------------- Permanence, perseverance and persistence in spite of all obstacles, discouragements, and impossibilities: It is this, that in all things distinguishes the strong soul from the weak.

He stood up very well when his kids were asking for cokes this weekend. Simply said we don't buy that junk any more. I have managed to hit one of my goals too.

msmogreen Posts: 717 Joined: 2006/04/22	2007/04/20, 12:30 PM I will try to get my stats in Sunday--but I won't be home until late, so might have to wait until Monday, if that's okay. Not that it matters all that much. Seems my weight is going up about 5 lbs. around my period, so every other time stats are due my weight is off.

freedomfound Posts: 81 Joined: 2005/05/13	2007/05/04, 12:42 PM I'm scared to send in my stats since I haven't been to the gym at all this week. Its a big bummer.
Lindsay22 Posts: 129 Joined: 2004/12/09	2007/05/04, 12:49 PM I wish I would have started the challenge with everyone, but its okay, i completed my first week in the program, and im still standing strong, have not cheated once on the diet and have stuck to the work out routine without missing a beat! Lovin it so far. Any advice to what I should expect in the next few weeks? I'll check in again soon. Thanks!
christal086 Posts: 155 Joined: 2007/01/06	2007/05/07, 11:55 PM are we going to find out how we are all going? leading up to the final 2 wks i think it will get us through the last weeks
Ravenbeauty Posts: 3,755 Joined: 2002/09/24	2007/05/08, 02:55 AM oh I don't know how I will come out on this one since I missed two weeks of the programs workout, granted I still did some stuff and actually went down yet another pant size. I am just so happy of all the results I have gotten thus far! Thanks AMY for all of the awesome work in putting this together for us! I myself am forever grateful to you and I can't wait to show off this body in a bikini in Mexico this December baby!

msmogreen Posts: 717 Joined: 2006/04/22	2007/05/08, 01:35 PM I won't be sending in mine because they are up, and have been up, and unlikely to go down significantly before the end. I'm sticking with the workout, and still working at the diet, but sending in my stats is pointless for me. However, I do no Maricela is planning to send hers in tonight.

Of course, I'm not sure I should be crowned anything, much less Miss WSSC on account that I cried last night over my son's potato chips. I mean, I actually SHED TEARS because I wanted some so bad. How pathetic. -------------- A morning without coffee is like something without something else.
jonshez Posts: 273 Joined: 2007/01/14	2007/05/10, 06:45 PM Dfly, at least you had to control yourself, I'd have probably just had them and then felt like cr*p. At the risk of being controversial, check the label, it's carbs and fats, but if they're the right sort of fats then I'd say having a few chips is not going to knock you off track. Provided it fits in with everything else and you're staying active. Surely tormenting yourself that way is worse for you psychologically (it would be for me). (Me/ gets ready to be shot down in flames!)
dfly411 Posts: 1,352 Joined: 2004/03/04	2007/05/10, 08:42 PM <-----loads flaming arrow onto bow. Seriously, I know what you mean Jon...and you have a very good point. However, the reason I was so dead set against having any chips was because I was NOT hungry. In a sense, the tears were not so much for not being able to have something that wasn't on my meal plan as they were for the frustration I felt and feel when I want to comfort eat. I swear, sometimes I feel like an addict trying to walk away from her drug of choice. So, it's a control thing, if you will. Am I making any sense at all? I do tend to talk in circles, you know. :big_smile: -------------- A morning without coffee is like something without something else.
