    I am not sure who that is. But Kara you can do this. YOu are already a step ahead by being able to have a friend do this with you.

    Plan your meals. Get involved with something active.

    Good luck!!:flowerforyou:

    I think that, honestly, success begets success.....Give it a week, do everything like you're supposed to, and see how things go. I mean, think about it.....We've all spent MANY weeks eating as we shouldn't.....couldn't we spare 1 week to do what we should?

    Of course, keeping your bikini out so that it reminds you helps.

    This is going to sound horrible but I'm honest with everyone here:

    I look for a woman bigger than myself and think "if I stop what I'm doing, I'm going to look like her."

    It has kept me on track and I haven't missed one week of exercise yet.

    ignore that little immature brat. Some people are so obnoxious. Sweetie, it takes time. You have to work out if you want to see any real changes. I would suggest a combination of cardio and weights. I personally feel that running is the best cardio and it has worked 4 me... You also have to eat all of your calories (1200 for me...) It took me half a year to see change... Best of luck

    I have a pair of size 8 jeans that I WAS able to wear *once upon a time*, and I have them hanging on my closet door. I try them on once a week to gauge my progress. Two months ago I could not even pull them up past my thighs:noway: Now I can pull them up but I can't button them yet:ohwell: but I WILL get there.

    Also, I have a picture of Jamie Eason (fitness model) hanging in my gym. I think she looks great! I may never look that good, but if I keep doing what I am doing, I will look BETTER than I do now....and that's what counts.
