Was $81/month in NYC-at NYSC

I just cancelled. Now, it's $20/month in Bridgeport, CT. When I go back to NY in Sep. I'm joining a gym that's around $50/mo.

I just relocated to CT until the end of August, and I joined a new gym today. I had to cut my workout short b/c the gym closes at 5 on Sundays-not what I'm used to!

I also get a free one-on-one...

Thanks freebird. That is all stuff I 'know', but its hard to remember when I'm feeling frustrated! It's always great to hear it from someone besides yourself.

I had a much better workout last...

I am getting frustrated, and for no good reason!

This week is week 4 on my program, and I'm feeling like I just want to focus on fat loss instead of strength. That is not my plan, and I know that...

It can't be where your jeans sit-every pair sits at a different place! There are super low rise, hip huggers, and even high waisted jeans available.

I use the thinnest part-which is about an...

I've only been lifting 3 weeks now...

I also think I have trouble gaining muscle, but then...

My workout today was a total self-induced fail.

My diet was terrible yesterday and today, and it really impacted my strength at the gym. I have just not been hungry the last 3 days. Today all I...

Here's a thread that details the lifting program I'm on. I'm doing a slightly different variation that does not include the rows, but I'll probably add them soon.

You'll have to cut & paste; I...

I'm a teacher (just finished my first year), so my hours are GREAT!

I finish the 2 masters classes I'm taking this thursday, then I have all summer off. During the year my formal hours are 8:20...

Thank you both for your responses. Verti-gal, I'll try to post more about the plan I'm following soon.

I started this log last week, and shortly thereafter I had to leave town and visit my...

Hello all!

After looking through the amazing photos of bodyspace members, I have come to the conclusion that I am indeed skinny fat. At 5'3.5", size 4-6 in clothes, I am super squishy around the...
