I really debated about starting a log. This journey gets very personal at times. It's hard to announce to the world things you didn't even want to admit to yourself. But that's why I did it. It needed to be right in front of me so I could deal with it head on. And I needed support to get through it. Who would have thought I'd find that here of all places. :lol: But I did. These guys have been a great help and encouragement through some tough times for me and they probably don't even realize it. - Pagangoddess

Technically speaking, Sandi should get the star. She weighs 40 lbs less and still lifts the similar numbers. And more!

Total weight lifted gets the star regardless of BW - although a noble guesture for which you should be commended - you're the girl

Zizzy - Thanks for the kind gesture. You rock! I don't think I'm going to be able to keep up with your numbers you're making great progress in a short time.

Guru - Thanks for looking in on us girls.

Mouse - Maybe we can start some other competitions amongst the girls, somewhat like the guys have. Your thoughts?

These numbers are crazy impressive. Makes me feel weak. Now I have to get my squat up!

I deloaded. So I guess we won't see the numbers changing for awhile. Unless Sandi comes back from her break.. :P

No not at this time. I need time to get into my new routine before my numbers will go up. And they will go up!! :twisted:

Nothing for me either. I had a mere one lb increase but it wasn't worth posting. :( I've deloaded when starting Madcow so it might be a while for me too.

Maybe this would be a good time to start some other challenges. Mehdi had suggested something similar to what the guys are doing , 1.5xBW Squat, 2xBW D/L, 1xBW OHP or anything else that we could think of for that matter. I’m game if anyone else is.
