No problem! I was in a dressing room and turned around and looked at my butt and said WTH is that? Good Lord in heaven I don't understand his humor sometimes.

I totally understand. I glanced at my butt in the mirror. And yes it has fallen down on top of my thighs. I am working hard in the gym to lift it back up. Ugghhh.

Don't feel bad, my butt looks like it was flattened out with an Iron. I've been doing a lot of squats but it is not lifting up. Does anyone have any suggestions on exercises that I could do?

Ah, the best part of a woman. We've had clients work from this list of movements recently and most, who commit to them, have had success.

Carving Curl: Take a dumbbell, put it behind your knee and grip it with your hamstring and calf so it doesn't fall. Roll your pelvis in to the floor to flatten your back, and lift you thigh off the ground a few inches. Do about 15-25 reps each leg, 2-3 sets.

Squats: Can be done with bodyweight, dumbbells, or barbells, can even be done with a yoga ball while you're against a wall to help with support. Deep squats, lowering slowly and exploding "out of the hole" back up. These are my wifes favorite and have been awesome.

Deadlifts: Can be done with either a barbell or dumbbells. Here's a link to an article on Elite FTS that helps with proper set up and form. There are numerous videos out there for form as well, some are horrendous though, be cautious to the one you choose to mirror. http://articles.elitefts.com/training-articles/how-to-set-up-on-the-deadlift/

Glute Bridge: Pretty self explanatory. Lay on your back, feet in close to your butt, lift, and squeeze. Hold for a few seconds, squeeze your glutes as much as you can the whole time, then release and slowly lower back to the ground.

Hopefully ya'll will get some use of these. There are tons more things you can do, however these 4 seem to really isolate the glutes (along with other muscles) the most. With squats and deadlifts, you're also getting a really good core and back workout, and squats, well they're the Godsend, they work everything to some extent.

Thanks Mark I am going to try the squats with yoga ball,the curls and the glute bridges. I have never heard of those. Will try those in addition to the Zumba. Maybe even try the Brazilian Butt lift Asherje suggested.

Thanks for the suggestion Asherje of the Brazilian Butt lift DVD I have heard it was good. I also heard from a lady in my hair salon that Phine Body by Phadra Parks was good for your butt as well. Trying to get ready for the summer. Lol

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
