I'm with you WW! I was about 20 lbs lighter when I wore it. I know where 10 lbs can come from, but not 20.

It's gotta be all muscle Jen...all that running/riding you do.

LOL...I wish. I looked a bit like Skeletor though, I wouldnt want to be that thin.

My wedding dress is still hanging in our spare bathroom... it's been over a year now. I don't think I ever even got it cleaned...

Freak is going to faint if he sees that!

164 today, miscounted. Math that early on a Monday morning...too much for me I guess. That one extra one didn't quite kill me at least.

Just go for 200. Even numers are easier to do in sets once your brain gets oxygen depletion.

Haha. I do it all beforehand and figure out how to structure my sets, but if I start with the wrong number...oh well.

Trying to keep it to 4 sets, it's working so far. So, on Friday it was 4 sets of 40, Saturday was 41/40/40/40, yesterday was 41/41/40/40, today should have been 41/41/41/40. You get the idea I'm sure.

I've been doing 5 sets and increasing each set by 5 when the number I am doing and the day of the year are about to sync up. Currently doing 5 sets of 35 and about to increase to 5 sets of 40. Getting better each day and much encouraged by the efforts I am reading about here and on the Facebook.

I was 18 when I got married. So a very tiny highschooler with no boobs.

I'm currently being inspired by a friend's little sister. She's had an amazing "career" already as a college runner at Iowa State. Link



This was only her fourth 10,000 meter race, which is 25 laps around the track for 6.25 total miles. 6.25 miles in under 33 minutes... so about 5:24 per mile! She's going to the olympic trials this month. It's nuts. She'd probably have placed higher if the last month had gone better for her, but had to take some time off to be at home after her mom passed away (long battle with medical issues, very rough on the family). The girl usually runs 10 miles in the morning and 7 or so at night, and has a 6,500 calorie diet (which I'm very jealous of!). Very excited to see how the next few years go for her.

Wow! That is a tough training schedule! I would be a little worried about overtraining and repeated use injuries. I am sure they are breaking those up into interval training along with the distance runs too.
Oh to be young and too dumb to know what I am doing to myself.

Those are really good times Matt. She is an impressive athlete!

She's single too, but a bit too young for you. Sorry

Don't know how you'd even have time for class, let alone extra curriculars with that schedule!

She's single too, but a bit too young for you. Sorry


is she 80?

Someone had to post it.

Those kinds of numbers inspire me to take a nap.

Speak up boy! I can't here ya!!

So this is kinda a personal pride moment I thought I'd share. When I get back to work after goign to the gym, when I put my pants back on, the butt and thighs are TIGHT. Cuz all that muscle I'm building gets all pumped up! Yay! And the new wedding dress has a full skirt, so no worries about how fab my a$$ gets

::high five::



::waits for the boys to request pics on fb.....::

Type? I think not.

At this point, I wouldnt think we would need to request them...
::Tapping foot, waiting impatiently::

It may be time for a round of updated photos, although I will say the only difference between my March 31 pics and any I take now is that now I have tan lines.

Pictures of tan lines are always acceptable.

I don't think I have anything new or different to show myself. I got a hair cut last week, don't think that qualifies though.

I found a photo of me from a couple years ago that is truly astounding ... why didn't I notice how big I got?

I'm waiting for that perfect bikini picture before I do another B&A.

The Adductor Brevis muscle?? That could get racy pretty quick, or just downright awkward.

I think the Aluminum Man pic is my latest "after" pic....
but Ok, I'm in.
