(No Tofu does not count.) <br /><br />As for powder, GNC brand is cheap - like $20 for a month's worth. John recommends the chocolate. You can mix it with peanut butter.<br /><br />I, as I said before, know nothing of this... other than what he tells me and what he sometimes makes me to drink. <br /><br />He says you can talk to him about it anytime. The stuff he is doing now is actually working. (He said to tell you that and... "it's hard to take advice from someone who's fat." His words, not mine. He's well on his way now. and he's always been STRONG.)<br /><br />Did you take any photos? Like "Before" photos... or measurements of your arms? Body weight is less important in this task. Measurements are key.Trishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09798066240436980630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3581775.post-87874138690172469812009-06-15T16:56:27.932-04:002009-06-15T16:56:27.932-04:00Mom, I don't have a videotape player anymore, ...Mom, I don't have a videotape player anymore, but I bet I could watch Richard Simmons on You Tube...<br /><br />Trisha, I knew your honey would have some good ideas! I don't really like the idea of eating more protein (aka MEAT), does tofu count? Does that powdered mix stuff taste OK? <br /><br />Heidi, it is really cool that you can do push-ups, I have always been awful at them, even back when I could pull 10 chin-ups no problem (when I was pregnant, no less!). I checked out Caloriecounter and it looks really helpful, and way cheaper than the software I had been looking at pirating, uh I mean buying.<br /><br />Emma, I like the idea of running, but with Delia we pretty much walk. Unless I got up an hour earlier and ran before work... not likely with my 4:45 wakeup as it is... I also have Carmen Electra's Striptease aerobics DVD, we can trade!<br /><br />And thank you guys for all your good ideas and support! You ladies ROCK!Serafinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04614156600834270762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3581775.post-13752619378383729522009-06-15T14:30:30.016-04:002009-06-15T14:30:30.016-04:00I would love suggestions for yucky c-section baby ...I would love suggestions for yucky c-section baby belly. I have a bunch of DVD's that you are welcome to ahem.... copy..., I mean borrow. Walking/running helps build endurance that will help your body burn fat and be leaner. Now if I could only get my bottom off of the couch to do that... it'd be awesome! Good luck!Emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05632134124366098758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3581775.post-37400645583757370922009-06-14T22:21:35.736-04:002009-06-14T22:21:35.736-04:00I recommend Yoga!.

I can do almost ten. I, however, have NEVER been able to do a pull up. I also recommend the website caloriecounter.about.com<br />It has a feature where you enter your food and it tells you the amount of protein, carbs, and fat you eat. That could help with Trisha's suggestion of more protein.<br />Now, take this advice for what it is.... No one in my family loses weight/gets fit easily. I joined a Mommy and me walking group and have been doing yoga and have lost very little weight as a result. I took the last week off and gained 5 lbs. <br /><br />Good luck! You are my hero!!!

Up your PROTEIN intake. You need to consume .8 to 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight in order to fuel your muscles. Not only is it the stuff they are made of but it ramps up your metabolism.<br />2. Lift heavy weights. Do shorter reps with heavy weights. Pull up are awesome. Push up are great. (Start with a weight you can curl no more than 12 times.)<br />3. Read bodybuilding.com (John says "They have a lot of chicks on there, and they're not gross.") <br /><br />I can't vouch for the last one, but you get the picture. <br /><br />**Also, if you find a good way to get rid of that stretchy baby belly, let me know. <br /><br />Good luck!! I look forward to your progress.Trishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09798066240436980630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3581775.post-56563124570188590532009-06-14T12:09:06.513-04:002009-06-14T12:09:06.513-04:00Susan Powder on line?
