I just started working out again about a week and a half ago. Every other day is about 15 minutes of cardio to get warmed up, then I found this UFC workout to tone up and burn some fat, so I've started doing that and using the Ab Glide (or something like that). The other days is about 20 minutes of cardio and then my ab thingy. I've also tried to be a little more conscious of what I eat- mainly I've cut back on sodas or I'll drink the ones like Coke Zero or Pepsi Max, which have 0 calories. In about a week and a half, I've already lost about 5 lbs. and starting to see A LITTLE of the tone-ness coming into my stomach.
GOOD GENES!:D
Stopped all weight involved workouts years ago. Trying to reduce muscles in biceps and legs. With MODERATE success.:straightface:
700 crunches first thing when I get up every morning. And a few other core strengthening excercises for my bad back. ( Doesn't hurt my abs either:heehee:).
Careful about everything I eat and drink!:drink:
Weigh 10 pounds MORE than I did in highschool, about 42 years ago. But, I hope to get back to that highschool weight of 145 this summer!:)
How are your teeth after that lot ?Quote:

Nope! I'm 5.9" 157lbs. and eat what I want. Did I mention I workout almost everyday?
i have always wanted the trim body, but i do not have the fortitude to work at it. my fault.
I've been fortunate to keep my 125 lb (5'6" and 23 yrs old) weight until now. In the past 5 months, I've gained almost 40 lbs.. Looks like I do need to start working out before it gets worse... My GF and I have made a pact to lose weight over the summer. I'll feel a little embarrassed to do it, but I'm feeling like I have no choice
I push myself away from the table before I'm full three times a day. So far, it seems to be working. :laughing:
It's been a slow process, but I'm down about 30 pounds, currently boucing around the 175-180 range. In this range I can wear size 8 jeans if they are low rise, but I'm still only 3 inches small in my waist than my hips. I'm trying to get within corset distance for my waist, so my 37 hips neet a 31 waist so the corset can bring me down to 27. The problem is my 41 band size on tip. Adding the girls and I'm at least an 18 on top and that will never get smaller.
I changed to the eating lifestyle of eating a wide variety of things, but less of each. I have a strick pattern if I go above 180 to hurry myself back down, and I'm happy with 1 pound per month. It takes time, but it's less frantic.
That's not counting all the outdoor activity and such. We really are committed to this thing. Why else would we spend all this time and effort????

Good question.I started out wanting to simply drop as much weight as possible to achieve the good figure,but then something happened along the way,I began to feel better about myself physically and emotionally,I then realized it was better for me personally to opt for an overall lean and toned body.You start off with what you were given and then strive for proportion and lean muscle all over.
I like the balanced and disciplined approach of Pilates,so I like to use that philosophy in all my workouts,strength training,biking,running,floor exercises for core.Watching the scale daily generally keeps me in tune to what I should and shouldn't be doing.I like to cycle high cardio one day then strength training and core the next,then rest Sundays.
