Should I exercise now or give myself a week to watch what I eat and then start the exercise routine?

    I see no reason to delay excercise if you are physically able:)
  • Do whatever you feel your body is up to...try walking this week and then up the cardio and workout routine as the weeks progress.

    i would start exercising now.

    I think that I make better food choices when I exercise.

    When i began dieting, in order to ease the pressure on myself, i watched ONLY my food intake for the first 2 weeks and then incorporated exercise once i felt that i had the eating portion of the regime in the bag :)

    if you feel overwhelmed, tackle the diet portion first and then ease into exercise once you feel secure.

    It is always hardest to start. I started a slow work out, just walking the treadmill and did a food journal for a week. Both helped me to start a workout routine and to be aware of what I was putting in my body.

    Exercise!
    . It feels good
    . You will find you don't loose weight anywhere nearly as fast if you don't
    . If you are anything like me you'll find yourself craving healthier food after you work out. That's NOT true for everyone.

    I totally agree... My daughter says I'm addicted to exercise. I didn't think I would ever hear ANYONE say that. I look forward to exercising in the evening. I don't exercise in the morning because I have to get up at 4:45am as it is. But I exercise when I get home from work and then again in the evening. Get into the habit as soon as you can.

    If you exercise, you'll be less likely to fall of the diet wagon. Go for it !! The sooner the better!
