Dammit, I don't have a scale around.... there's one at home. Can't I just go by my pants instead of my stats?
I'm in. Except my goal isn't to lose weight right now, but to put on about 10 lbs, then eventually, maybe "cut" down 10-15 lbs(that part won't come for a while). So two months, 10 lbs...that's the perfect time frame.
So right now, I'm roughly 180 lbs at 5'11. Goal is to hit the 190 mark.
Started about 5 years ago at my height weighing 135 lbs.
The way I look at it, you've got to apply the same principles if you want to gain or lose weight naturally and healthy. 5-6 meals a day, tracking your calories, and consistently sticking to plan, diet-wise, and in the gym.
I've been getting stronger, but I need to up my food intake every day, which is kind of hard right now. I go to the gym 4 days a week about an hour a time, no cardio, strictly weight lifting. So basically, I need to figure a way to work in an additional 500 calories a day...any ideas? I have a shake for breakfast around 10am, a regular meal for lunch, shake at 3, then 6, go to the gym, then a regular meal for dinner. I think all that beer I drink on the weekends is a big obstacle.
And luckily, I don't own a web cam, so no pictures of me in the shower quite yet.
Dag, see, when a man and a woman love each other, they show their love in a special way. And sometimes after they show their love in a special way, 9 months later a little adorable squirmy baby appears. And 2 years after that, the baby becomes a screaming, running, climbing, 30 pound monkey who is available for multiple lifting opportunities.
Quite simple, really.
slappy, you're kidding right?
No little K, I don't have any pictures of me in the shower. I'm sorry.
And sometimes, when a man pays a woman $150, there may be a little baby 9 months later to. My nana told me that one.
$150 - really? High-class.
(Wondering if Slappy will say what I have too much refinement and sisterhood to say...)
Hey, if a 30-pound weight is twisting and wriggling and producing various counterforces it probably counts as even more, right?
Say it, soz...you're not THAT refined :wink:
And what the hell are you asking again?
But sisterhood, Slappy, sisterhood...
I'm blathering, basically. I was asking if, muscles-wise, it takes more force to lift a 30-pound weight that is wriggling around than to lift a static 30-pound weight. Like, if a wriggling 30-pound weight is "worth" 40 pounds, or whatever.
Blathering. Or blithering. One of those.
Soz, it is definitely more effort to lift the wild child than an equal gym-weight. Plus, it takes more muscle groups. You need to wriggle a bit too to keep from dropping said wild child.
What's this sistahhood thing?
[size=7]The first thing that popped into my head after I saw your "150" comment was "why, what do you charge?"
[/size]
Ok, your little game isn't working. I can read your quotes.
Kind of like spelling words in front of little kids.
So, um, yeah, I guess lifting a 30-lb person would be harder than a 30-lb dumbell, because it would involve more muscle groups, like K said.
I charge $125/hr.
Didn't say I get a lot of bites, though.
ah, that's prolly a good thing.
PAY to get one of them wriggly things? I don't think so. I think I will try Bootsie, the LittleK's boxer (dog) instead. I will not be allowed to keep that one, neither do I pay for food for her. I'm sure she would be wriggly enough. Say, littleK, how much does Bootsie weigh?
Aaaaaaah!!! Speak of the devil! I mean of Bootsie!
free-k!
Boots weighs about 65 lbs. I can pick her up, but not if she's wiggling.
Perhaps I will start with the cat then. Heeeere, kitty kitty!!!
