HI!!!

i'll be woking at a pool as a beverage server in vegas this summer and uniforms are itty bitty bikinis. last time i was in a bikini was 5 years ago (willingly) so im in panic-mode to get in shape. i have been consistent with working out but i definitely enjoy my beer nights and sweets. ive cut them out for a few weeks now but i feel like ive hit a plateau and its frustrating. my next discipline is definitely the 1200 cal/day diet. anyone have any suggestions to get out of this rut?

    What is your workout routine? Upping your exercise regime could help you overcome that weight plateau.
    I'm hitting the same issue, so I'm upping my exercise, so I look hot in my bikini. =]

    i will be at the red rock station pool. its off the strip but really nice. they even throw concerts there. hit me up when you come down to vegas.

    and yes! its definitely a huge motivation and fire up my butt to get in shape.. no excuses!

    i try to do 3-5 days a week at the gym. mondays upper body and weds lower along with 40 min cardio and abs. and the rest are cardio and abs. i try to squeeze in a day of hiking and scrambling on the rock.. definitely way better than cardio.. great full body workout! i just hate cardio... i try to do a little more than minimum and i change up the machines i use so my body doesnt get accustomed to it. but i know i just have to up my excercise regimen.... just dreading it.. *bleh*
