Hi B Reed
wtd situps are awesome. If it ever becomes too easy - lift the weight up to your forehead to increase the intensity. When that part becomes to easy and you're ready for a challenge - hold the weight behind your head.

Sorry to hear about the work change. Good luck working around his new schedule. IS it a permanent move, or temp?

Don't forget the pics, Riss. I'm looking forward to seeing them myself! Hams are one of the muscle group I take strange pleasure in destroying (tri's being the other. Can't explain why...)

I just saw your post in Cris's journal. For some reason I thought it was a lot sooner. I probably will be able to make this

my hubby doesn't go near the gym, i guess he likes his belly...lol...he's been doing better with his diet though, he's cut out a LOT of sugar and sweets, slowly but surely I am converting him...lol...now that we are on the same shift, he will have to eat what I eat for lunch, or cook his own, so that will help a lot..he has already lost 7lb (go, baby, go!) I am so glad he is letting me help him, I think he will be happier in the long run because of it
