  • @Sherryisgettingfit congratulations on your weight loss!! I'm not an exercise person but managed to walk 3 times this week. Its a start that will lead to habit hopefully! I need to use my Richard dvds more often but lately my ankle is achy with this cold weather and walking is more tolerable. Have a beautiful Sunday!
  • @ 2020pinktogo i know exactly how you feel when there has been no weight loss, it can be upsetting, continue to move forward with your health goals and thats a positive that your weight held. It will get easier to balance work shifts and exercise. Be sure to squeeze in some well deserved rest to regroup the body's energy.…

  • You can do it!! My son recently lost 45 pounds to join the Army. This was his dream. He started off with doable goals like committing to healthier snacks of apples with a cheese stick 2 a day versus his favorite chips. His dad began to prepare him healthy dinner of chicken with salad 4 out of 7 days in the week. He started…

  • Hi there! Be patient with yourself first of all because Rome wasn't built in a day so losing weight is a process. Start with small changes because it adds up to great results. Set exercise goals that you feel are attainable. Don't get discouraged because that's how i was starting to feel. I'm a recently diagnosed diabetic…
  • Hi there! Do you have a dvd? You could tone up and exercise with dvds like zumba or something interests you. Also if you have a radio or cds you can dance to your favorite music or you can make up your own exercise routine in your home with squats, jumping jacks, planks, lifting dumbbells, or other exercises. I get ideas…
