  • FitnessBlender.com or on YouTube. They have 30 day programs you can buy, but tons of free vids too. Also on YouTube: Priority One has a 101 series that builds and is basic aerobic stuff that isn't too hard - but is a surprisingly good workout!
  • If you follow the advice here and save calories so you can have that much beer, please please be careful if that leaves you barely eating. Having no food and ten beers is a recipe for having your stomach pumped in the ER at the end of the night. :( Earn some extra calories by exercising, try interspersing lower-calorie…
  • Write down the reasons you want to get fit and look at them every day. Find ways to make it fun - exercise you enjoy, do it with a friend, play your favorite music.

  • Me too! My boyfriend and I are both on here now for pretty much the same reason. We're trying cooking together instead of getting junk food and take-out to go with our Netflix lately. It's a fun thing to do together and we can make healthier recipes, too. Plus, adding in going for walks... We also encourage each other; he…
  • I have limited mobility and chronic pain due to a blood clot in one leg. I'm trying to find some exercise I can do; before the clot I walked everywhere and was in much better shape!
