Hi all! I hope I'm not late, I just posted my two goals in the sister thread.

Quick question... what do the abbreviations SW, CW, and GW mean? I may have gotten them wrong, but I'm sure you'll know what I mean lol.

SW = Starting Weight
CW = Current Weight
GW = Goal Weight

I don't think I'm going to make goal for my arms this month. I over did it this weekend and my left shoulder (bad arthritis) is KILLING me. It's been 3 days and I still want to rip my arm off my body it hurts so bad! :mad:

I did do the knee/leg PT today. My legs are starting to feel strong!

gardenerjoy 05-08-2013 11:44 PM

SuperHeroTeacher: Hope you find your equilibrium with the arms, soon. It takes awhile to figure out what the sweet spot of exercise is, I think. Too little exercise and things hurt, too much exercise and things hurt. My shoulders need a lot of stretching -- I've been carefully and slowly adding a bit of strength-training to the upper body.
