Non Scale Victories This Week
During last night's LIIFT 4 Shoulders workout, I saw an improvement over last weeks shoulder presses. I was unable to do the 2nd and 3rd sets last week overhead after about 3-4 presses. My left shoulder would literally fall like I'd lost all muscle control with 10 lb weights. Yesterday I used the same 10 lbs and it wasn't until the 7th rep on the second set that I started to feel bad fatigue but pushed through. On the third set my shoulders were shot but I was still able to push overhead even if slower. I pushed to fatigue but didn't have that dangerous muscle drop I had before. The zinnias I grew from seed are mostly in full bloom and I took some pics before cutting some to put in a little vase.

I can't say that I haven't been tempted. A lot. Like by every single commercial out there. I don't have a lot of disposable income though so I've never followed through on any of those wants. I have been doubly tempted when I've seen some of these items (like your Millennium Falcon toy) at garage sales but then I take a minute and realize that if the darn thing worked they wouldn't be selling it.
ReplyDeleteThe Silly twister for abs where u stand on it and keep twisting..arghh
ReplyDeleteJavita...a coffee that is supposed to help you quickly lose weight. Basically you are in the bathroom all day. I was (clearly) desperate to lose that last 5 pounds before vacation...yeah, well it didn't happen and I even gained a pound while drinking it!
ReplyDeleteI've never been much into diet tricks. I remember my MIL asking me a lot of questions about Alli, I don't know if she ever took the plunge. I wouldn't risk it with those side affects. yikes!
ReplyDeleteI'd have bought that ab flex thing, if that hunk came with it!
ReplyDeleteWow...I can't even say anything here! lol. Been there...done that...my doctor says ignorant things like "oh..I have a wonderful product..." It irritates the snot out of me. I used to want that wheel thing and the thing called "perfect push ups"...ugh...they always get us!
ReplyDeleteMy mom had me do the Metabolife pill thing, which then got taken off the market for not being safe. The piece of equipment I bought was a "ski" machine as well as the one where it's a mat that you put booties on and slide back and forth like you're skiing. Shame, shame, shame..... =o)
ReplyDeleteShake weight.
ReplyDeleteI guess it is kinda legit, I mean, you definitely feel it, trying to shake a heavy thing up and down. But you can feel it if you pick up a giant can of grapefruit juice and shake that up and down too. Then there comes all the jokes from family and whatever friends you were silly enough to tell.. and goodbye shake weight. It was definitely a fad. :)
