    After reading all this I'm feeling like a wuss, going to have to add some time to my gym schedule! I know I need to work my arms and core just nervous to do that around the folks that go to my gym right now, most everyone is already fit and training for some kind of something.
    Never feel intimidated by other members in the gym. Concentrate on why your there and get it done. At some point you'll be one of those ppl you now fear. No matter how good a shape you're in, there will always be someone else that's in better shape. Don't stress over it. Good luck to you.

    I dont have gym membership. I have always worked out at home or take a run outside.

    When I first started, I focused on food only the first couple weeks. Then after I felt more comfortable with what I was eating, I started walking on the treadmill for 20-30 minutes. Definitely not running (I was really out of shape) but walking as fast as I could manage. I started increasing the speed as it got easier and easier for me and then started adding other work-outs like fitness blender (free on youtube) or yoga. Now I work out at least an hour 5 days per week, and I also try to take my kids out on walks when it's warm enough. My work-outs are super intense now (like dripping with sweat!) compared to just easy walks on the treadmill in the beginning.

    30 minutes 6 days a week. I'm doing a Jillian Michaels program, I do circuit training 4 times a week and cardio 2 times a week. If your worried though just start out small. 30 minutes is a good start, I love doing 30 minutes a day.

    I used to daily until some annoying news.

    Trying to get back into the groove but my knee was a problem for a while, as well.

    Slowly but surely.. Choochooo!!!

    I alternate cycling and running, usually 30-60 minutes, bit more on the cycling, with a day or two off a week.
