Sometimes being an adult means doing things that we don't like to do. I hate exercise. But I know it's something that I have to do to stay healthy. Not only does it make me look better, it makes me feel better. That's enough motivation for me. Steph

WIll power. Period. You have to realize that you are worth the hard work. Until you do, you're going to keep doing it. All in your head!

I do that all the time. I found myself struttin around the house in my cowboy boots and superman underware a few weeks back stopping to strike a pose in front of the mirror. Yep - good thing I live alone! Haahaa!

Yeppers - 40 down and I wear a sweater at work every day. I bundle up at home because I'm too cheap to turn the heat on. Haahaa!

Amber - hurry up! You're getting me excited for this! Haahaa!

Darlin' if you were closer I'd take you up on that offer in a heart beat!

ooh ooh ooh - pick me pick me pick me!!! I need someone new to flirt with! Haahaa!

If you're getting this upset over a number, I agree, toss the scale. Or at least hide if and only weigh once a month. Go by measurements or how your cloths fit. Some people stress more on the number and then get all disapointed. Toss the scale if you have to. Just stick with the working out and heating healthy!

I had just copied this like to post on here. Too funny. This totally makes me sick. Yet another reason it has been years since I have eaten their food!

I don't always have time to set aside for an hour - hour & half for a work out. I take some of the work out's from P90X and some from Jillan Michaels and do what works for me. I know I would have gottne better results with following P90X as suggeseted, but I got pretty good results doing my own thing too. You just need to…

Cookinglight.com or buy a cook book. :flowerforyou:

Suck it up ButterCup. Eat breakfast and like it! Damn it! I'm kidding - kind of. You'll get use to eat. You don't have to eat right after you wake up. I usually eat 2+ hours after I get up on week days. I don't like exercising. I do it anyways.

Who really cares about what anyone else thinks about what's in your cart. Really. Does it matter. They aren't the ones that are eating it. You are. You're the on that is trying to healthy.

Stop obsessing. Weigh your self once a week. Be honest with your food, portion size, water intake, and exercise and you'll lose weight. Period.

Congrats girl!

Almost every day. Unless something comes up where I can't squeeze it in.

I create my own exercises and use my heart rate monitor to get my calorie burn. Not eveyone works out as hard as the next person so DVD's like that can vary widely from person to person. If you don't already use a HRM I highly suggest you save your pennies and get one. Steph :flowerforyou:

You're issues is that you looking at the wrong place. Don't by crap underware from Walmart! Yikes! It's your um, privates - treat them to some nice panties - don't you deserve that? VS all the way baby!

http://www.youngwomenshealth.org/fitness/st_outer_thigh.html Google is the bomb baby! this is the first result when I searched outer thigh stretch.

I log it under cardio and use my HRM to determine the calorie burn for that day.

You should be very proud of yourself! Congrats!

This is awesome! LOL! Sorry - I'm perfect - I have nothing to make you feel better. Kidding - This is one of the reasons why I avoid those silly machines - I'd kill myself. That - and I am really glad that there are no video cameras in my basement where I work out cuz I'm sure when I do Tae Bo or any other DVD I would make…

Google it. Youtube it. Bing it. the internet, they have awesome search engines for you to use. Or this site - has a little search engin too - you should try it! It's a Beach Body work out program.

I say if you don't have joint issues, give it a shot. If you're worried about it, ask your doc. Good for you for wanting to push yourself! That's what this is all about! Awesome!

Yes, get one. The flu shot does not make you sick.

Do you watch the Biggest Loser? Most of weight gain/loss is mental. Jillan makes everyone on that show cry like a fricken baby. Go talk to a shrink. Haahaa. Either that or find your will power and just stick with it.

Good for you. I'm glad that you're here. I hope you get to use those brand new knees! I just had a toe joint replacement in Jan and I am looking at third surgery on the same toe 12/21 - not looking forward to the surgery, but looking forward to the challenge of finding work outs that I can do with out standing. Also…

Haahaa - check out my signature! Also I try to pop some gum and wait at least 20 minutes before I give into a craving. They usually pass by then and I forget about it. If I'm at home I'll brush my teeth. If neither of those work, then I have 1/4 or 1/2 of what ever it is that I'm craving - or a healthy version of it.

I'll have to add some next time. Thanks!
