I haven't been doing anything special these past two months but I have been trying to force more food and push my workouts harder. I took the first pic around New Years and the second one last night....

I've been terribly inconsistent with updating this thing, but here is my ~ one month progress since January 2 (based on Workout A):

Weight: about the same. I weighed in a .5 lb lighter than when I...

Rack chins with a slow controlled motion, even if your feet are not on a bench, are still challenging.

My hips are a big problem area because of their odd shape, I have a "ball" in the middle of my back. Kind of ugly, very odd. Something about my back has never looked quite right. I don't have...

Drink when you're thirsty.

I am currently doing strong curves and would recommend it. Welcome!

Could be so many things...don't ignore it, go get checked out.

You could lose weight on the scale, but it would be mostly water.

I got a blue pair from Forever 21. Usually with these kind of things you get what you pay for, but they're thick and have held up pretty well for the past 6 months.

If you measure your progress too often, you don't see it...."watched pot never boils" but people disagree as to how often you should. I guess whatever works best for you, do it. :)

Thank you all! It IS a slow process and patience is hard but it's worth it.

I finally found my REAL before pics! They have been lost for years.
There are 3 years and 20 pounds between the photos. The one on the left was March 2014 (110 lb 5'7"). I was a runner and had been...

It might be in your head. But oh man do I know what you're talking about.

Yes you do have to start somewhere so no shame in that!

I train chest and triceps on one day of the week. I do not like to do it because I think training chest is boring but that's no reason not...

I usually have a PB & banana sandwich on whole wheat bread an hour before working out.

I think it's better to get most of your protein from food. Protein powder is expensive and quite honestly it can taste pretty bad...food is more satisfying.
I would recommend buying one tub, just...

I do add weight to what are supposed to be bodyweight squats. I did do goblets yesterday since the rack was occupied for a long time. Our gym does not have resistance bands without handles but I do...
