I will also be cheering you on and watching with excitment. You will do great. Your determination and excitement will guide you through this and you are going to have wonderful results.
Get in, get out. That is definitely something I learned from Leigh that just clicks. Why drag it out, right?
Oh, so it's Omron? I thought those were called Ormon!?! Dang!

OMG, you have me rolling with that, Ginger! Good one!

Hey, Wendy, just think how good we'll all look come MARCH 2009!

That is what I thought. I know you will do great.

fengshway · 08-30-2008, 10:09 PM

missjane · 08-31-2008, 01:06 PM

Wendy, your month 1 pics look great! I am super excited to see month 2, though!

Go Wendy!

thanks jane, you look awesome as always!!! loving the tan--did you get some sun?

32 min of lifting today, dropped all of my weights--just trying to maintain muscle over the next 7 weeks.

It's all fake.

I'm really fair-skinned, have had several pre-cancerous/cancerous things removed from my skin, so no sun for me.

But, I'm a pro at fake tanning, much to my dermatologists delight (and Tina's, too, I am sure!)

Bytsi · 08-31-2008, 01:38 PM

Can't wait to see your continued progress - good luck with the program adjustment (not that you'll need luck!)

fengshway · 08-31-2008, 02:32 PM

thanks bytsi!!

jane, I think for the next month pics I am going to go get one of those spray tans.

Wendy, it's been a while since I've caught up in here. Your new plans sounds great and I will watching with interest! I'm sure you will do amazing, and as everyone else said... I would say good luck but I don't think you'll need it!

Smart girl!

Wendy, you are looking good! I can't wait to see the changes that come about with this new plan! I think your next set of pictures will be downright spectacular!

Looking great Wendy and I am adding my well wishes for your upcoming deficit. Don't be too disappointed in the LBM that drops away with the pounds. I know that was a "killer" for me when I started my drop and I nearly freaked out. A lot of the LBM that you think you are gaining is water and other stuff it turns out so it will drop down quickly at first and then settle into more reasonable numbers.

fengshway · 09-01-2008, 11:46 AM

thanks mermaid, I will keep checking in~

tina,you will be happy to know that I am an avid sunscreen user. found this really cool roll on for the face that I love, and I use the hightest stuff for the bod. I tan anyway. I love being outside. I do get checked yearly for moles and stuff

thanks ginger!! the changes are happening already, and today is only day 3!

karla, I appreciate the well wishes, and while I certainly agree that the scale losses these past 3 days are absolutely water and glycogen loss, I disagree with what you are saying. I get calipers professionally done each week--every week for the past 9 weeks by the same person, and while scale weight has stayed the same, my skin folds have all decreased, some substantially. my biceps, calves and shoulders have all increased in inches. so, no, I don't think that a LOT of my LBM is water and other stuff, and I don't THINK I am gaining, I KNOW I am gaining. and the reason is likely that the past 9 weeks are the first time ever in my life that I have followed a lifting plan that is 4 days a week, and much more intense than anything I have ever done. now my gains are surely BEGINNER GAINS, no doubt. and I realize they won't continue indefinitely, and they certainly aren't going continue during the next 7 weeks.

several professionals that I have worked with (including some body builders)have told me I have a tendency to gain muscle easily for a woman. so comparing your experience to my experience in this particular instance might not be a fair comparison.
