The 'I Feel Like Being Healthier' Thread!
Nodaisho:
I've had ups and downs. If I recall correctly, I first posted on thursday, and did some weight lifting, push-ups, and sit-ups. Then I did nothing until yesterday, when I did a few push ups and a few sit ups. Today, I have done push ups, sit ups, and weights. I have found that I really do need the weights, as I am now, I can't do a decent amount of push ups, so I'm thinking about not doing those, just doing sit ups and some weights for the arms. Butterflies, whatever you call the thing where you pull down on the bar above your head, and whatever you call it when you pull on something in front of you and bring it in towards your belly. The muscles I've noticed the most trouble with are my biceps, in that they are weaker than I can believe is even possible, so I'm trying to do a good amount of work on those, to get to the point where I can do push ups in sets larger than 5.
Spluff:
Your biceps shouldn't have any affect on whether you can do pushups, pushups primarily utilize the chest, triceps and anterior deltoid. Also, I'm not sure if you meant those exercises would do your arms, because if they are what I am thinking of (I don't do isolation / machine exercises, and even then the description is kind of vague), but the exercises you listed work the chest, lats and back, respectively.

For the past couple of weeks, I've mostly fixed a tiny setback in my weight loss, so now I'm back at the lowest I've been in about 2 years. Losing weight over Christmas sounds kind of impossible (..traditional Norwegian food isn't exactly all that healthy, and Christmas is all about traditional Norwegian food and candy), so I'm thinking my goal will be to not gain any weight.
I haven't worked out (properly) for a few weeks now, but I've at least cut back on the amount of crap I eat. Still not exactly a healthy diet, but healthier. And it feels good to eat stuff like salad and salmon or chicken filet for dinner, because it's so tasty and not entirely unhealthy crap, but it costs way more money than, say, a frozen pizza or pasta. I need to figure out some cheap, healthy dinners.

Why is everything against my dieting? All three bikes that we have in the garage are all dead. One of them, the handlebar is loose and it's dangerous to use. The other, the tire is flat and won't fill back up. Last, I can't even find it.
I did eat healthy today though. For breakfast, I had steel cut oats with a little brown sugar on top. Lunch I had a salad which I ruined the healthy-ness of by putting ranch on it. After school, my sister went by Zaxby's. I had a 5 piece chicken finger box. No fries or drink. Zaxby's is reasonably healthy for fast food but I shall avoid it in the future.
