I just went through the photo albums of various people and I know not everyone is there but I have to say wow it is nice to see the different transformations from different people. I don't actually have any pics of me that would be revealing as those (panties and bra) but I'm thinking that maybe for my own self reference, maybe I should. I don't follow Body for Life, though I did reread the book the other day just to get some ideas. I am also going to reread my South Beach Diet book once I find it. I am glad there is a group of women and men that are so dedicated to weight lifting, it is a nice change as those women aren't always so visible at the gym.

In fact, I had an experience yesterday when I was doing the lat pulldown machine and a girl and a guy were switching off on the lat pulldown machine next to me. He asked her why she used such a light weight and she said "the personal trainer told me that to lose weight, you need to use light weights and more repetitions" and I was kind of astonished. Here I am sweating like there is no tomorrow and she is casually using light weights and not even breaking a sweat. Anyway, I think I was more surprised at that she said a personal trainer told her that more than anything.

Anyway, I just want to say congratulations to you guys because you are inspiring and it is nice to see progress pics.
