I am a tall, curvy, voluptous woman who would be considered by\nothers as "plus-size". I work out 3x weekly on weight resistance\nmachines, walk a great deal, and stay active in my lifestyle. My\nclothing size averages between 18-20 womens, at last check my\ncholes. count was 170, and my blood pressure is excellent. Tho\nI am a large woman, I am healthy and in great shape. I dare say\nthat there are more parts of my body that are toned and firm to\nthe touch than those women who bodies are smaller and lighter\nin pounds but not in as good shape as I am. \nIt's your mental attitude, and your image of yourself that counts.\nNo matter what size-stay healthy! Get regular exercise! Take care\nof your appearance, and do things to enhance your beauty-take\ncare of your hair, nails, skin. Wear makeup, jewelry, anything that\nmakes you feel pretty!\nPS. My boyfriend adores my body, and is extremely demonstrative\nin showing his appreciation of it's womanly gifts. Some men just\nwant a woman with a big bust and backside, with a definite waistline to contrast it all with! Keep your curves girl!

It's not about arm, it's about shoulder.  Do more weights would help.  But be ware, don't work too hard when you are still young.  Keep that in mind.

for your arms....you'll want to build muscle because it doesn't sound like you gain fat easily. Push ups, pull ups, chair dips, curls. \nfor your legs...if you want them to be muscular and bigger, you'll need to really work them alot. squats, lunges. \nmy advice..go to www.shapefit.com/training it has alot of weight building exercises not only with weights but without as well. good luck

Your weight all depends on your height and body frame. Some people have larger bones and frames than other people. If you go back to your question and add more details, I will keep checking and give you an answer. At your age, you should worry more about eating healthy, low in fat foods, lots of fruit and as many vegetable as you want. A bit of a drag heh? Even if you get a low fat salad dressing to dip your veggies in, it can be more fun. If you play outside with your friends rather than sitting in playing video games and TV, you will loose weight. I know, here I am on the computer when I should also be more active. The most important thing whether you are too big or too thin, is to like yourself. Hopefully, you read this and I'll put you on my watch list, so I can get back to you. Bye for now.

I think you should go with slightly lower weights, maybe eight or five pounds. I work out a lot and even when im just using 12 pound dumbells i get bulky in my arms pretty easy. Using a lower weight with more reps would help with toning without making your arms look bigger. Thats just me might be different with you. My weight usually fluctuates about five pounds but i weighed in yesterday at 128. Im 5'4.

Yes, definitely take a day off.  Try to work different muscle groups each day... for instance, you worked your chest and arms and a bit of your shoulders doing push-ups.  Now, today work on your back, or do some cardio.\n\nI think you also alluded to you in your post that you are trying to reduce the flab in your arms.  Working that particular muscle group will not reduce flab!  There is no such thing as spot reduction of fat stores.  You can certainly build muscle there, but unless you work on your diet and include cardio in your fitness routine, you'll never see the fruits of your labors.\n\nI recommend a well-rounded fitness plan, one that includes a sensible diet, cardio activities, and most importantly, an all-around active lifestyle. \n\nUse fitday.com to monitor your calories / activities and read a variety of fitness related magazines, such as Shape and Women's Health, or what not.  They have solid advice for trimming up and making your workouts fun.\n\nGood luck.

This is old fashioned, but while you loose weight, wear a girdle.  You can get them at Walmart or Target for about 10-15 dollars.  It will help keep everything 'flat' while you loose weight so you don't get bulges and bumps.  I swear by it and so does my neice.  She has had four kids and is flat as a board.  I still have  a lil baby fat left from my last but what is there is flat, which gives you a smaller appearance.  As for exercises, walk, walk, walk.  Stay busy and breast feed!  That is the big key!\nGood Luck!

Try adjusting your seat height.  Sometimes just an inch difference can ease tension/strain on your arm and hand.  \n\nSet an alarm in your computer or other device at regular times, perhaps once an hour or every half hour, to do small stretching exercises for your hand and arm.  \n\n--Hold your right arm straight out, palm up.  Keeping the right arm straight, use your left hand to slowly bend back the fingers of your right hand.  Do the other side.\n\n--Make fists and rotate your hands in both directions.  \n\n--Shake your hands out.  \n\n--Pull your right arm across your body with you left arm.  Do the other side.\n\n--Get up and bend over and just hang, letting your shoulders relax.

Try this one it works.  Lay on or back arms out to side and knees drawn up. Put your feet together and make big figure eights in the air  with them. I know this sounds silly but it tightens those muscles. i mean swing your feet to the side down and then around and up and over to the other side. A big loop on each side.  do it every day as many as you can.

Try this:\n\nGet some 1-3 lbs weights.  Hold your arms straight out to the sides, elbows bent so that your hands are pointing up.  Your arm should be in a right angle.  Then just hold the weights and extend your arms all the way up above you.  Return back to your starting position.  Not only will it help you to work out your arms, but it will build up your pectoral muscles, behind your breasts, making them appear larger.  Hope this helps!

No there isn't.  That "flab" on the back of your arms is a fat deposit.  The only way to lose it is to lose weight/fat.  It is possible to tighten things up a little by doing some excercises like tricep extensions, curls, or even just pushups.  If you build up the muscle the fat will be a little less "jiggly", but it will still be there.  So walk for 30 minutes or so a few times a week and you'll see the best improvements.

Popeye had this problem and his girlfriend had the arms that you want. Love yourself first and wear sleeveless tops\nmen love women with developed arms.

I am overweight as well and have been trying walking to no avail and eliminating several foods (Starbucks, no sugar in coffee,etc.) but not seeming to work. One of my doctors has suggested Yoga, which I am signing up for and another doctor told me to get 5lb weights and do repititions on arm exercises and also do some squats. He said that until I worked my core and built up my muscles I was not going to see anything significant. Hope this helps. Good Luck and Blessings on your Wedding!

I lost 143 lbs over 7 years ago and have kept it off-and I did it all naturally-no medical intervention! Since I was so overweight all I could do was walk. Forget about hardcore exercise! You need to take a 30min walk every night. Walk as fast as you can handle and move those arms! As far as food, all I did was cut out all fast food, junk food (snacks), soda and juice. Drink only water and unsweetened tea but mainly water!ALOT OF IT! Eat 5-6 times per day but very small meals. For instance here is a typical day back then for me: 6am-1 pack oatmeal and cup hot green tea. 9am- fat free cottage cheese and diced apple 12pm-chicken breast with salsa on top and piece whole grain bread 3pm-very small handful of almonds and raisins 6pm-chicken breast and small side salad with only lettuce tomatoes carrots and a fat free italian dressing. DRINK WATER THRU OUT THE DAY. If your anything like me I used to HATE water but as I made myself drink it- my body craved it! Still does! I am very proud of you for wanting to do this! As you begin to lose weight and fell better you will naturally start to change up your exercise routine as well-you will want the challenge as you begin to feel healthy and strong! At 31 years old now I feel healthier, sexier, and happier than I have ever felt in my whole life and let me tell you... I LOOK GREAT! GOOD LUCK- YOU CAN DO IT!
