ARM TONING....HELP!!
Has anyone discovered any good toning exercises to get these arms under control. I already know...once the skin is stretched...it's stretched....
but seriously...there's gotta be a way to tone some of this!! I am doing some arm exercises with 2.5 lbs weights on each arm. I just purchased actual arm weights that you velcro on, so I'm going to start doing more with those too.
I seem to be dripping the weight off below the waist in my legs, thighs and feet...but above the waist -- NOT SO MUCH!
Come on....tell me something good!
What's working FOR YOU fellow July'ers??

They are a hot mess aren't they!!...
It's real hard to tone them when your dropping weight fast... but this would have been the same scenario if you did weigh****chers.. or any other weight-loss program.. I mean I look smaller in the waist, hips, and chest... THEN BAM... JIGGLE JIGGLE!! UGH!! I think what my trainer has help me with lessen the blow of the jiggle... so I bought what he told me.. 10, 20, 40 arm weight reps... I got them on line at Wal-Mart for only 29.00 dollars not too bad.. I can forward you the poster of the correct way to do arm curls.. I think it helps a little.. but then again when I get to my goal weight I might look into getting my arms done..my insurance will pay 40 percent if a must have..

For me my arms are not too bad yet. They are flabby though. My biggest problem is my bottom waist. To me it is still the BIGGEST thing on my body and it seems like it is not going down. HOWEVER it is. I was wearing a size 30/2 and now I am in a solid 26 at the bottom. I actually got into my first non stretch jeans the other day and they was a size 26. That was a WOW moment for me. I can get into a 2xxl shirt now and before I was wearing a 5 to 6xxxxxxl shirt. My top is getting so small. My personal trainer is working on the bottom part of me so I can look more porpotional. I am for sure going to do plastic surgery. I am going to wait about 18 months before I do it but I can not wait. So that means I have 15 months to go. So my countdown to plastic surgery is surely on my mind.
