So, here i am all proud of myself, that i have lost 22lbs! And i post a pic on facebook. And someone says..."wish i had time to go to the gym"
Really? I am a SAHM, i clean, cook, stay at home with my son all day. I MAKE time!
I attribute my weight loss, to COUNTING my CALORIES! I make myself go to the gym 4-5 days a week, and sometimes i dont get there until 9pm, but i go anyways! Anyways, some people think its all because someone goes to the gym, when in reality, while you were stuffing your face with a double cheeseburger, (which i do sometimes(calories allotted)) i chose a salad, because its what i could eat with the calories i had for the day. .....
Any who, heres my recent pic : )

Thank you, and i'm not extremely disciplined, lol just really want my bikini back : ) gotta have a good goal, that motivates me : )0 -
the reality is, while they were on facebook posting that comment, they could have been at the gym its just their excuse for not being as strong (physically and mentally) as you.0

Thank you! Its still kind of flabby, but only when i sit down, still have some toning and tightening to do0 -
It is all about making the time commitment for yourself. *( Whatever that time may be). Be it at the Gym, or anywhere else you can get exercise. Outdoors, on your bedroom floor or living room etc.. *( No Gym Needed here).0

Yep!! On days on dont want to go to the gym, I walk outside! I cant wait for it to get a little bit warmer, I'll be outside everyday with my jogging stroller : )0 -
WOW you look great keep up the good work0

You've really worked hard and achieved great success - congratulations! Not being able to go to a gym is just an excuse. I don't go to a gym - I walk my dog every day, workout at home using DVD's, and on weekends we do outdoor activities like bike riding, hiking, skiing, snow shoeing, etc. I also count every calorie. People make time for what they really want to do!0

"I don't have time" is the grown up equivalent of "the dog ate my homework"0
