You don't have to walk to work out your lower body if mobility is an issue. When you are sitting at your desk (like reading this...) swing your legs back and forth. Hold one leg up in the air and slightly bounce it like you have something on the end of it. For like 1 minute and then switch legs. Hope it helps...

I am a long time MFP user and have really seen a diffrence this time around, don't want to do it alone, so please add me as well. :)

Add me as a friend. I am often in the same boat but I'm the cook. :) I have kids and they want other things then myself, which isn't always an issue but do like to make them the occassional treat (cookies, cakes and pies). The trick that I have found is before being exposed to some of this foods, i find a snack that will…

Letting myself go Why do the same people answer?

i know it sounds stupid but as someone just starting out, you are my hero!

I read here (thank you again) that if you don't eat enough it will affect your calorie burn. I will try it again today! I can't…

To begin, ADD ME as a friend. :) You and I are in the same boat I think. I am very discouraged as I have the same goal and the same height. I do the Wii fitness program EA Sports 2. I like how it changes each day and it tells me when to rest to give my muscles time to rest and get stronger. It also asked me about my diet ,…

soda is right up there with my credit card, never leave home without it. :) I have done good though, I buy a six pack for the week and that is all that I am allowed. I can't buy more until the weekend is over and the kids each earn a soda once a week so its really only a 4 pack. That was goal number one. Next month i buy…

Well Brittnie, I am Katrina and like yourself I too have a hard time with the calorie and eating healthy sort of thing. I figured that each week i set myself up a new goal that way I don't have to look so far ahead and I can get satisfaction sooner :). I also use the wii fit and I have had to change my routine from 30…
