    Hi...I am joining to see if this gives me that extra push to stay on track. My biggest problem is being consistent with my work outs. I have all the things/gadgets I need to work out...but do I always stick with it...nope:grumble: . So here I go again! I'm not as active as I was when I own my own home. I recently sold it and I am currently living at home until I purchase another one. So I tend not to do as much around the house because I know someone else will do it.....and it's not mine. I need to change my way of thinking and just do what I would normally do if it were mine. I love to be outside...even when it's hot! I will push to stay on track and remain focused this go around. Oh...I gained some weight back on our trip to Florida.

    Is anyone else doing Jillian Michaels 30 day shred? I will be facing surgery in a few weeks so I am going to give it a faithful shot.
