in Introduce Yourself
Hi There,

My name is Lily. I'm from Southern California (Los Angeles). I'm 30 years old. I just joined the site this past week, and I love it so far since I have a very busy on the go life and I can log in from my mobile phone all the time...I have 38 pounds to lose, and I would love to have some friends to support me on this journey...

I'm great with shopping for healthy foods, and I'm lucky enough to have a very supportive boyfriend that I live with:-) I think the hardest part for me right now is getting on a consistent workout schedule (also because my schedule is so jammed)...and also, I don't want to go at it alone, so I would love some friends to be able to lend support along the way.

Lily

    DVD workouts are good to if you can stay motivated to do them. They are much like online classes in that it takes alot of discipline to pop them in and complete the workout when we can always find 50 other things to do (basically excuses) to not work out. I have been guilty of this myself. I have the Insanity Workout on DVD cost me over 150.00 ask me how many times I have used it..how about once. I do better walking, using the elliptical and even playing the Wii with my kids.

    I know what you mean about the whole online classes analogy...I'm making it a goal to gym at least 3 days per week, then from there if I need to add, I will get those DVDs in...I just have to get there my three days that I have to go!

    Thanks everyone for your support and replies...I sent you a friend request, it will say it is from "Lillian" (my full name)...
