Jillian Michael's kickboxing DVD. I love it! I alternated the 3 sessions. Got a good workout.

Try cardio DVDs. I like Jillian Michael's kickboxing DVD or youtube has alot of cardio regimes for home. Hope this helps.

You really have to find your own pace. And intermediate stretching especially if you run long distances.

I've looked and there's not a whole lot of Zumba videos online that you will see zumba w the copyright. I've created my own zumba routine from a few songs I knew from the gym and some others tagged along w it. I also would type zumba and the song name and add it to a playlist. When other videos would pop up behind them I…

I give all my clothes to either salvation army, goodwill, and my church.

A good lotion works and even absorbency powder is good.

I do zumba and love it! Some gyms do pole dancing...I've always been interested in taking it but don't have the guts yet lol

Hi there I was in the same boat as you about 2 years ago. I've gone through a separation and divorce right before the holidaywas somewhat in the same boat as you about 2 years ago. I've gone through a separation and divorce right before the holidays. It was a nightmare for bc my ex and my in laws were awful. My ex mom in…

Well I am on medically prescribed phentermine. I am being monitored by my doctor. I have lost about 12 lbs. I have the dry mouth but I like water so I drink more of it. I must check in w my doctor every 14 days otherwise I don't receive my prescription. I have lost a lot of weight over the last two years by incorporating…

I always stretch after hardcore cardio. I do zumba, kickboxing, and recently have started running. I also stretch after lifting weights.

I enjoy cardio specifically kickboxing and zumba. I have recently started to run.

I keep my old drivers license photo in my wallet and a pair of my large size jeans. When I feel giving up or feel the need to stay motivated I look at those items as a reminder of who I WAS and who I am NOW. I don't ever want to be that girl again. I didn't like that girl then compared to who I am now which is much better…

I love my Nikes! I have spent so much money on different brands and types and I have found that Nike are the best. I do tons of cardio and recently started running. No complaints no pain. Excellent investment.

I enjoy doing Zumba! I've been working out for 2 years now and I've incorporated Zumba into my workout routine you burn a lot of calories and it's fun. If you plan on taking up Zumba and making a part of your workout regimen definitely a couple of times a week will be necessary to see weight loss along with a caloric…

Walmart is the way to go. Cheap and they serve their purpose. As you get smaller you'll get smaller you'll need smaller clothes. Lane Bryant is over priced.

Drinking lots of water can help w cravings. If you feel like you need something sweet. Try using those individual packs of crystal light for a 16.9 or 20 oz. Bottle. That way you get that sweet satisfaction and at the sometime you'll consume something not high in calories or refined sugar. Hope this helps.

Walmart works fore everytime. Affordable and many sizes and designs. Danskin is the best.

Good for you keep up the good work!

I can absolutely relate to you. I understand the negativity surrounding the use of diet pills. But that decision can only be made by that person and their doctor. I think you are making the correct choices while on phentermine such as learning about nutrition portion control and the use of exercise to make weight loss…

Thank you for the suggestions. They are much appreciated. As far as my health goes i had the fast heart rate for 2 days. As I stated in my post I had lengthy conversations w my doctor and had blood work and tests run before she even would consider this. My doctor and i diacussed that the use of phentermine is for a short…

To answer you and not trying to sound rude so I apologize if I do, to begin with you haven't lived in my life or lived in my body. I am having trouble w the cravings and am an emotional eater. I cant lose this last bit of weight. I have tried. Being not a candidate for weightloss surgery as it is only alil bit. This is the…

Hey Heather I am taking phentermine. I've been on it for a month now. Deciding to take Phentermine was a last resort and tough decision to make for me. Sorry this is long too. Just alil of my background, I too was severely overweight and some charts would even put me in the obese categories. I began this journey at the…

If you are having difficulty with constipation try using Metamucil or fiber one. That will help things move along more smoothly and continue to drink lots of water. Hope this helps. good luck to you.

I have bought several types of gym shoes spent hundreds of dollars. Nike are the best shoes around.

I liked Jillian Michael's kickboxing DVD

I work two jobs as well and one thing I did was work out in the mornings for 30 mins so I would get in for the day. Is that something you can do?

I do zumba and cardio taiboxing. I love it. My gym instructors are full of encouragement. I never feel out of place especially if I'm trying to learn a new move. Good luck.

Not sure if you go to the gym but if you do the the seated abductor and adductor are good to help tone thighs hips and the famous butt. Lol. Hope this helps.

I am both weightloss and some fitness (tone areas that need it I'm not hard core on having ripping abs and muscles). However weightloss is primary for me. And I'm straight cardio bc you burn the most calories. I enjoy the group classes bc for me the treadmill and elliptical and bike are boring. To me time goes waaaay too…
