I am trying to lose 20 pounds before Nov 30th my 20 years wedding anniversary. I get home from work, cook and try to do zumba or the treadmill for about 30 minutes. I also do 100 crunches, 40 pushups and 50 squats.. It's just boring working out alone.

    I would join a gym and/or find a workout partner. A friend that would be willing to go on a jog with you or someone to do a workout video with... it really helps. I do classes at my work (they have a gym) and find it VERY helpful! :happy:

    I joined a gym and then I post my progress on Facebook...this holds me accountable to my goals:) By posting on fb, i mean I "check in" at 24hr Fitness. This way when i miss a day, my kids give me a hard time about not sticking to my plan:)

    I would try and find an evening walking buddy. Try adding in some other things too... Jumping jacks, chair dips, stepping! Maybe even invest in a video game system and work out games. :)
