I can see where that may be confusing. <BR/>Starting with a set point of 138lbs in January, it hasn't been easy coming down the 5lbs to 133. The next 15lbs will be just as difficult.<BR/>:)Nenette Alejandria Mayorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04519714210354478057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5554671041186726858.post-50257730066672859632009-03-05T14:40:00.000-06:002009-03-05T14:40:00.000-06:00Um, ok, I don't really know what this means: Anoth...Um, ok, I don't really know what this means:<BR/><BR/> <I>Another 'yay' was realizing that my set point weight is now 5 lbs lower than the weight I started out with! </I><BR/><BR/>So, does that mean you're already at your set point weight?

Losing weight while you're sick is definitely not the most healthy way, and the weight catches up once the appetite kicks back.

I'm going to do it, I was just thinking on my walk home tonight that I need something to build upper body strength and muscle tone, but it has to be easy in terms of time/equipment/money.

If I'm in a good zone, I can do 30 now (of course, should I actually DO that, I likely wouldn't be able to hug my children for a week). Usually, I just quit at 15. It's on the ball, which is at an easier angle, but, hey, it's on a BALL!<BR/><BR/>As for 10. You can do 10. Don't sell yourself short. Just do it. Concentrate on form.
