So, this entry is also me. And I am back with more questions!

Since then I got down to my lowest weight of 137 lbs, and then I decided to up my weight training to even more resistance by doing a muscle works class (aerobics w/ weights). Since then, I've been holding steady at about 141, and while I've gained a bit of weight, I've noticed some ( Read more... )

I ran across this tumblr a few weeks ago and really wanted to share with everyone here because I've found a lot of the posts very inspiring. It's just pics with short quotes, but I like its focus on becoming/being strong, not skinny. :)

Hello! I'm new here and was looking for a livejournal community that would help keep me motivated. I started weight loss journey about 3 months ago. I'm 26 years old and a professional animator gone grad student. I've always been pretty thin, but in college I gained a lot of weight and just became really self conscious. Then 6 months ago, my ( Read more... )

I posted here around this time last year about starting my weight loss journey. Since then I have lost 42 lbs, and I have reworked my overall weight loss goal, and I now have another 15 lbs to go (i reached my original goal 5 lbs ago, but wasn't completely happy with my body)! I've learned a lot about health over the course of this year, and I've ( Read more... )

Okay everyone, I need some help here.  I don't need to lose weight but what I'd really like to do would be to gain some muscle mass. I don't mean like bulky, body-builder (I'm a girl), I mean like a gymnast, or a ballerina.  This is kindof embarassing to say, but my butt is rather flat and low to the point where I'd almost say it's sagging and I  ( Read more... )
