  1. I have hand weights now but my dad is giving me his weight bench and his large barbell. I'll let you know the results. Love the pin loveliberate!
  2. I'm doing standing dumbell presses (if that is what you'd call them) I've been getting good at doing those but haven't got down on the floor yet. Squats really hurt my knees (same deal as my ribs basically) but I think I would benefit from less reps. Can someone tell me how to do squats with weights? I think that that would do me good. My lower body is pretty good to me, I walk 5 days a week for half an hour. I have stairs at home and at work and honestly I think that they have done more for my calves than any exercise. I would like to bulk up my hips though. I'd like to firm my butt up without losing it. Okay, I'm getting on the floor Now. My SIL told me to do 100 hundred throughout the day even if it means doing 5 at a time. Wow! Weight lifting must have really helped because I mostly felt that in my arms! I felt a little pain but I suppose that may go away eventually.
  3. I would really like to bulk up my upper body. I have something wrong with the way my ribs are fitted together so it hurts some to do pushups. That is mostly an excuse probably, I'm sure lots of people experience pain when they start out. I also would like to work on my stomach but it seems that situps just make my stomach bigger. This may be because I am so thin besides. Hehe.
  4. The "crispy" new recipe here has egg whites. This really sucks because I like the chicken patties, they were the only ones I could find that were vegan.
  5. Some drug users at my old work used to take riboflavin to make their pee yellow despite having watered it down for drug testing. To me a side benefit is that I remember to take them when I have clear pee. I take a b-vitamin complex (for B-12) which is left over from my brieg non-vegan period.
  6. I know that I get acne from Red 40 allergy and that a friend of mine gets it from milk allergy.
  7. I had this same problem a while back, I decided that I needed to lose some weight "from my stomach" and began eating less and working out more. Problem with that is that I have a good weight for my height and really could stand to gain some muscle. For 3 weeks I essentially starved myself and was sick with cold and flu for all of those weeks. At one point I realized and decided to go back to eating right and just exercising more. Now I need to get that same motivation back without the anorexia. Heh.
  8. Hi I'm Haniska in Va. I've been a vegetarian since I was 14 and vegan since 18. I'm over on the vegan forum as well. I think that looking healthy is the strongest source of activism! I'm thin naturally and would like to put on some more muscle and hoped that you guys could hook me up with some inspiration.
