Re: A me me me post!
Congrats Richt.
I too had been a little concerned lately about a 5-7lb weight gain after taking up pilates. I have maintained well for over ten years now, with regular daily cardio and 3x weekly weight training. In November last year I started pilates twice weekly and started gaining quite quickly. I don't belong to a gym and don't measure BF in fact I have never really had any idea what my BF measurements are or should be. My point is that although this gain in weight scared the **** out of me at first, I seem also to have lost at least one size in my clothes. This has been quite interesting for me as I have used free weights nearly all my adult life so either I weren't using them properly or the pilates works very well for my body type. Just goes to show that you never become expert and you can always shake it up a notch!
Just had an afterthought, I do have the luxury of a one on one coach for the pilates and maybe the expert spotting and advice is keeping me on track better.Comment

Re: A me me me post!
Well Rich, now is the time to be brave. Higgies and I did it two years ago. Time for a picture of young Richard in shorts, stripped to the waist, standing sideways.
No excuses for coyness or hiding left.
What say you, ladies?Atkins didn't say 'Calories don't count',
he said, 'Don't count calories.'

Re: A me me me post!
Do you know what the wierdest thing about it is?
Because I put on those 7lbs, I automatically thought it was fat! And no matter how I saw my self in mirror I straight away could see where I "thought" the weight had been put on.
No that I know its muscle, I am back feeling and "looking" slim again.....sigpic260/215/180 Male - 36 y/o
It never ceases to amaze me of how easy and how effective this ***diet*** is!!
I have since re-gained a bit of weight, but that is soon to be coming off again!
