The Situation as it stands: Sex: Lady Age: 23 Height: 5'7.5 Start weight: 230 Current weight: 216.4 How the fat happened: I gained about 60 pounds when I was pregnant. I certainly abused my "I can eat whatever I want" card. Over a year later, I'm done carrying around all the extra, ugly fat. I want to be healthy and hot again, getting strong along the way. I've started with making changes to my diet and getting to the gym consistently. I put together an upper/lower 2 day split using exrx.net, starting with machines and transitioning to free weights as I learn the form. This is my first time around using free weights and I think I'm in love. Other goals include: fitting back into my single digit pants (c'mon size 6!), seeing a weight on the scale <170, and getting my game back.

Sharks Below posted:Yaaaaaaaaaaay great job! What is your diet like? What changes have you made? Hey, Sharks! Happy to have you. I've been eating a lot of chicken and lean beef for lunch and dinner, eggs for breakfast. I try to concentrate on making protein the main part of my meals. The diet changes I've made are pretty basic. I've stopped drinking calories, started eating so much more protein than I used to (so much) and I've joined MyFitnessPal which has been amazing in keeping me schooled on calories and macros. I'm using Optimum Nutrition whey protein post-workout. Chocolate Malt flavor, mmmmm. I'm loving me some deadlifts. Totally excited to work my way up. So far, so great!

Thanks everyone! I'm excited to be reppin' us lady lifters and I'm having a drat fun time doing it too. Today's workout came after two rest days. I decided to do deadlifts for funsies on my upper body day and was pleasantly surprised by what I could manage. rdysetwoah Tracked a Workout for 1,166 pts Today Barbell Deadlift: - 115 lb x 5 reps - 115 lb x 5 reps - 135 lb x 5 reps - 155 lb x 5 reps Machine Bench Press: - 60 lb x 10 reps - 70 lb x 10 reps - 70 lb x 10 reps One-Arm Dumbbell Row: - 17.5 lb x 10 reps - 17.5 lb x 10 reps - 17.5 lb x 10 reps Lat Pulldown: - 55 lb x 10 reps - 70 lb x 10 reps - 55 lb x 10 reps Standing Dumbbell Shoulder Press: - 15 lb x 10 reps - 15 lb x 8 reps - 15 lb x 7 reps Dumbbell Side Lateral Raise: - 5 lb x 10 reps - 5 lb x 10 reps - 5 lb x 10 reps Machine Triceps Extension: - 30 lb x 10 reps - 40 lb x 10 reps - 40 lb x 10 reps Dumbbell Bicep Curl: - 12.5 lb x 10 reps - 15 lb x 10 reps - 15 lb x 10 reps Dumbbell Shrug: - 17.5 lb x 10 reps - 17.5 lb x 10 reps - 17.5 lb x 10 reps fito2sa I manage to amuse myself every time I do shrugs. Apparently my shoulders are attached to my eyebrows because whenever I shrug it looks like I'm asking myself a series on unanswerable questions. Yep. I'm a total dweeb.

Here's Monday's workout a few days late. I got a new computer yesterday (!) and now I can keep my log updated with the greatest of ease.

Also pleasantly surprised that I could squat in the first place, but that's another story. Goblet Squat (kettlebell): - 35 lb x 5 reps - 35 lb x 5 reps - 35 lb x 5 reps - 35 lb x 5 reps Leg Press: - 100 lb x 10 reps - 100 lb x 10 reps - 100 lb x 10 reps Stiff-Legged Dumbbell Deadlift: - 17.5 lb x 10 reps - 17.5 lb x 10 reps - 17.5 lb x 10 reps Seated Leg Curl: - 80 lb x 10 reps - 80 lb x 10 reps - 80 lb x 10 reps Abductor Machine: - 70 lb x 10 reps - 70 lb x 10 reps - 70 lb x 10 reps Adductor Machine: - 70 lb x 10 reps - 70 lb x 10 reps - 70 lb x 10 reps Ab Crunch Machine: - 70 lb x 10 reps - 70 lb x 10 reps - 80 lb x 10 reps Standing Calf Raises: - 10 reps - 10 reps - 10 reps Plank: - 30 sec - 30 sec - 30 sec fito2sa Next time I'm aiming for a 35 second Plank and more squats.

Today started out completely lack luster. Took my time in the gym, went through the motions, got it all done. Felt fantastic by the time I left. Funny how that happens. And by funny, I mean awesome. Machine Bench Press: - 60 lb x 10 reps - 60 lb x 10 reps - 70 lb x 10 reps Standing Dumbbell Upright Row: - 15 lb x 10 reps - 15 lb x 10 reps - 15 lb x 10 reps Lat Pulldown: - 55 lb x 10 reps - 55 lb x 10 reps - 55 lb x 10 reps Seated Dumbbell Shoulder Press: - 12.5 lb x 10 reps - 12.5 lb x 10 reps - 12.5 lb x 10 reps Side Lateral Raise: - 5 lb x 10 reps - 5 lb x 10 reps - 5 lb x 10 reps Machine Triceps Extension: - 40 lb x 10 reps - 40 lb x 10 reps - 40 lb x 10 reps Dumbbell Bicep Curl: - 15 lb x 10 reps - 15 lb x 10 reps - 15 lb x 10 reps Dumbbell Shrug: - 20 lb x 10 reps - 20 lb x 10 reps - 20 lb x 10 reps Elliptical Trainer: - 0:20:00 || Broke a Sweat fito2sa I went down a smidge on my weights for shoulder presses and was able to do the full sets of 10, which felt good. Then I did cardio for the first time in a few days and realized it just isn't as much fun as it used to be, before I was introduced to the 'scary' side of the gym where I previously thought I had no business. I like it on the 'scary' side.

So something unexpected (but not unwelcome) has happened over the past few months. I've gotten, what's it called? Oh yeah. A life. I've gotten a life. It's been fantastic but now I feel like I need to be all the places at all the times. Work, school, home, boyfriend, gym, bed. I haven't had much down time lately, and thus no updating log time lately. This changes....now! Gym time has still been going splendidly. I find myself saying things like "I don't want to go to work. I just want to go to the gym." I'll take Phrases I'd Never Thought I'd Say for 400, Alex. Plus I'm starting to see some of the small changes that go along with losing 15 pounds, and looking better is never bad news, just sayin'. My latest lower body workout was with my sometimes gym friend. We decided to see if I could deadlift the day away. Barbell Deadlift: - 115 lb x 5 reps - 135 lb x 5 reps - 155 lb x 5 reps - 165 lb x 3 reps - 175 lb x 1 reps - 175 lb x 1 reps - 185 lb x 1 reps - 155 lb x 5 reps Seated Leg Curl: - 65 lb x 10 reps - 80 lb x 10 reps - 80 lb x 10 reps - 80 lb x 10 reps Leg Press: - 298 lb x 10 reps - 298 lb x 10 reps - 298 lb x 10 reps Stiff-Legged Dumbbell Deadlift: - 25 lb x 10 reps - 25 lb x 10 reps - 30 lb x 10 reps Standing Calf Raises: - 10 reps - 10 reps - 10 reps - 10 reps Ab Crunch Machine: - 50 lb x 10 reps - 65 lb x 10 reps - 65 lb x 10 reps fito2sa

And for good measure, here's this. Some things just seemed easier, so I added an extra set for funsies. The scary side has been treating me ver well. (The order got all outta whack on Fitocracy) Machine Bench Press: - 70 lb x 10 reps - 70 lb x 10 reps - 70 lb x 10 reps Abductor Machine: - 60 lb x 10 reps - 60 lb x 10 reps - 60 lb x 10 reps Dumbbell Shrug: - 20 lb x 10 reps - 20 lb x 10 reps - 20 lb x 10 reps Elliptical Trainer: - 0:20:00 || Broke a Sweat Adductor Machine: - 60 lb x 10 reps - 60 lb x 10 reps - 60 lb x 10 reps Seated Cable Row: - 60 lb x 10 reps - 60 lb x 10 reps - 60 lb x 10 reps - 60 lb x 10 reps Seated Dumbbell Shoulder Press: - 12.5 lb x 10 reps - 12.5 lb x 10 reps - 12.5 lb x 10 reps Lat Pulldown: - 55 lb x 10 reps - 55 lb x 10 reps - 55 lb x 10 reps - 55 lb x 10 reps Side Lateral Raise: - 7.5 lb x 10 reps - 7.5 lb x 10 reps - 7.5 lb x 10 reps Machine Triceps Extension: - 40 lb x 10 reps - 40 lb x 10 reps - 40 lb x 10 reps Dumbbell Bicep Curl: - 15 lb x 10 reps - 15 lb x 10 reps - 15 lb x 10 reps fito2sa

Haven't been seeing the scale move in a downward trend as steadily as I had hoped. Tweaking the diet and giving it a few weeks to see if that gets me back on track. In the meantime, I'm just gymming and trying not to get discouraged. After all, I can wear jeans I haven't worn in some years, and I put that on the success list. Today was more of the same thing. I do feel stronger, and it does feel like winning. Machine Bench Press: - 60 lb x 10 reps - 60 lb x 10 reps - 60 lb x 10 reps Seated Dumbbell Shoulder Press: - 12.5 lb x 10 reps - 12.5 lb x 10 reps - 12.5 lb x 7 reps Lat Pulldown: - 55 lb x 10 reps - 55 lb x 10 reps - 55 lb x 10 reps Machine Triceps Extension: - 30 lb x 12 reps - 30 lb x 15 reps - 30 lb x 15 reps Dumbbell Bicep Curl: - 15 lb x 10 reps - 15 lb x 10 reps - 15 lb x 10 reps Dumbbell Shrug: - 20 lb x 10 reps - 20 lb x 10 reps - 20 lb x 10 reps One-Arm Dumbbell Row: - 15 lb x 10 reps - 15 lb x 10 reps - 15 lb x 10 reps fito2sa

You're already super strong! You're doing so well. Re: gym + no scale progress. I'm experiencing the same problem as well, but I've noticed my measurements decreasing and my body looking leaner. You actually retain a lot of water when you do strength training, and there's also muscle gain that will affect the number. If you're lifting and losing weight, put less stock in the number on your scale and more into the measurements, mirror, and new clothes fitting again. Congrats on fitting into the old jeans, too!

Ahhhh yesterday. Busy day. The mystery of the disappearing barbell and plates in the room I usually go to was solved when I walked in and there were brand new barbells (shiny!) and brand new plates (matte!) waiting just for me. It was a little like Christmas.

From the last dude I ever would have expected it from. What I said (after a snort/giggle) was "Thank you." What was going on in my head was more like They notice! The people notice! Needless to say. I was excited.

I realized I was stronger than I used to be so I upped my weights on some things, like chest press, curls and lat pull downs.I'm taking that as my cue that I'm doing something right. Pretty sure next upper body day I'm going to try going up a bit more on other things and see where that takes us.

Aaaaaaaaaand I'm back. Last week is a blur. A plague fell upon my house and I slept for 3 days. I confess, I didn't even think of the gym. On the plus side, my weight held steady the whole week and I'm back on track. It felt good to get back in there. Get all sweaty and gross. Aw yeah. I was nervous that I'd lose all the muscle, but turns out a week off was just a week off and I was able to do everything at pretty much the same weight. Fancy that. Machine Bench Press: - 50 lb x 10 reps - 60 lb x 10 reps - 70 lb x 10 reps One-Arm Dumbbell Row: - 17.5 lb x 10 reps - 17.5 lb x 10 reps - 17.5 lb x 10 reps Seated Dumbbell Shoulder Press: - 12.5 lb x 10 reps - 12.5 lb x 10 reps - 12.5 lb x 10 reps Side Lateral Raise: - 7.5 lb x 10 reps - 7.5 lb x 10 reps - 7.5 lb x 10 reps Lat Pulldown: - 70 lb x 10 reps - 70 lb x 10 reps - 70 lb x 10 reps Machine Triceps Extension: - 40 lb x 10 reps - 40 lb x 10 reps - 40 lb x 10 reps Dumbbell Bicep Curl: - 15 lb x 10 reps - 15 lb x 10 reps - 15 lb x 10 reps fito2sa So I eased into it a little bit. Tomorrow is lower body day and I am excite.

My schedule has been completely off the past week. I've been juggling a bunch of different things, and I can't juggle very well. Time in the gym has definitely suffered, but I started doing some at home exercises. Even if I'm severely limited to using 5lb dumbbells and a 28lb toddler as my weights. Whatever works, right?
