I am so excited. I am just getting started after a long break from lifting (baby). Anyway I have gained 1.5lbs in a week and lost 1% body fat. Not to shabby. My goal is 15lbs of muscle in a year so I feel like I am on my way.

Congrats! It can be done, it's just hard. Are you breastfeeding? That will probably help you a lot.

Well done, that is good news! I am struggling to gain at the moment, but I managed to gain 2lbs last month through weight training, but have lost it again! So I know what I need to do, keep going though, its a great start to you achieving your goals!
