Hello Everyone!
I am new to the site. I started working on losing weight a few months ago. I lost 20 and kept it off. Now I am back on track. I go to the gym quite a few times a week. I am wondering if anyone knows of a website or good information on a fitness plan. At least something to get me started. I usually do 30 min elliptical and 30 min treadmill. I really want to start running so I thought the treadmill would be good to start that. It is pretty cold here. I am larger though. And larger in other areas and find that causes me to stop running. I want to be able to get out in the morning and run when it get nicer. Maybe if I lose more I will lose in other areas. :laugh: I also want to incorporate weights into my workout schedule. i am looking for guidance. I don't want to have to pay for a personal trainer. Another thing. I am in my car all day. I am want to drink more water throughout the day any ideas on what i can do? I am starting to take my lunch so that I can eat that instead of going out. Ok I am so full of questions. LOL. I figure this is the perfect spot for it though.
Thank you,
Jen
