  • You look a little like Jamie Lee Curtis:)
  • Hello, Don't forget all those activities you're doing IS exercise! And treat it that way. Make sure you keep hydrated and eat enough too. You will be burning a lot of cals being active alone. It's also real easy to grab bad food when yoou're on the go so take some good food with lots of protien not just carbs. Then when…
  • Hey Leeska, I am not diabetic. But, I wanted to tell you not to give up! My wife was researching whey protien(wich we already use) and found a lot of studies unrelated to just muscle wellness. Please ask your doctor and do some research yourself on it first. It is very healthy, and has made my wife and I feel energetic and…
  • That's wonderful! For you. If I weighed 100lbs and didn;t have arthritis I'd do some with you. And just to argue some more...when you do inclines you take out the same obstacles.

  • A girl push-up IS the same concept as doing incline. Wich I alread agreed was a good idea. Maybe you shouldn't quote using just a small portion of my post. You still work all the same muscles. Short of your toes! I have psoriatic arthritis and can't do regular push-ups on my toes. You make it sound like when you do a girl…

  • I apologize if I wasn't clear about the dips. In no way did I mean a dip machine. unless, it's adjustable to lower and utilize the legs for assistance. Not every one is in as good of shape as many of theses posters replies. Also, not everyone, no matter how bad they want to, can physically do exercises even remotely in the…

  • A lot of good ideas, specialy the incline and strenghtening your upper body with other exercises. That's a great way to get strong and get some push-ups done! On the same note...women have less upper body strenght then men. Sorry, but it's a genetic fact. I want to bench-press 500lbs but, I can't. I have to bench 200lbs…

  • She can do a dip in a squating position and use her legs to assist, She can do dips by using the kitchen counter. What you suggest is for her to get in a real push-up position and do a negative...O.K. and then what roll around on the floor soshe can get back up and do another negative and then roll around on the floor so…

  • I'm a guy and don't laugh at me. I want to see skinnier me.
  • Why yes I do! My wife and I both are quiting! I have had two cigs in the past 3 months! One the first day and one when I got drunk(one!!). The web site is valcanoecigs.com They are electric cigs and they are the best thing I have ever bought in my life!!! I've smoked a pack a day for 27 years and now NONE!! If you decide…
  • "girl" push-ups will get you to the point where you can do real push-ups. You can do some dips too. They will strengthen your arms, shoulders and chest.

  • Thank You for saying this! I've been saying it over and over. But, untill a person does it, it falls on deaf ears. I eat well over 4k a day and lose weight. Every one is different but toooo many people try to survive on 1.2k or less and I just know they're F-ing hungry! You should get a medal!
  • Hello, First off, don't be so hard on yourself. Atleast you're pretty. You can fix being out of shape! Me? I'm chubby and ugly. I can't fix both! Just take it slow and if you have a bad day, so what, keep trying. That's all that matters.
  • WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! GET THE HELL UP AND GO TAKE A WALK! YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME! YOUR TELLING ME THAT YOU WANT TO SIT AROUND ON YOUR BUTT AND WATCH DUST FALL! HOW THE HECK DO YOU THINK YOU GOT TO WHERE YOU WERE IN THE FIRST PLACE! MOVE IT! MOVE IT! MOOOOOOVE IIIIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • If you have some muscles the only way to "tone up" is to shed some BF. I weight lift and do cardio. My goal is to maintain my muscle size and "tone". Sorry, I don't follow the trendy stuff. I don't know all the different names of programs and stuff. I just exercise. I'm like an old man I guess!?
  • I don't plan on running for my life. But, I guess I could if I had to. I'm more of a fighter though!
  • SQUATS SQUATS SQUATS, and when your done....do a few squats!
  • I have a bunch of metal in my ankle and it makes things more...challenging, to say the least. So, I know how you feel. Off the top of my head...try, swimming, rowing, sex, and of course stuff like push-ups, dips maybe some crunches. I hated it when I couldn't do stuff. I wasn't exercising back then but, I was still active.…
  • When you first start out it's a good idea to listen to your body. You can try to stretch and see how you feel then. I don't lift weights two days in a row. Rest is important. You can speed up your recovery by feeding your muscles, ie; drink plenty of water and drink whey protien right after you workout. Another thing you…
  • Oh-well...the only thing that will make you give up is you letting yourself give up. You just have to QUICKY forgive yourself and consider it a minor set back.
  • Don't get me wrong...You deserve to have a life! That's just it though. You have made a decision to IMPROVE your life! If you want to improve your life that's not gonna include drinking a lot and eating bad. Peeing and dancing doesn't help. Your peeing so much means your body is recruiting all the water it can to proccess…
  • People like this is why I don't like people. What a f-stick. And I'll tell you he's lucky I didn't witness it cause he would've went home crying!
  • You should eat healthy. At best all you will do is maintain your current state. Probably, you will stop exercising and get to a point where you really regret your decision. It can be fun and new to eat healthy. When you get a taste you'll wonder why you didn't do it sooner. Then, it'll just be normal!
  • I just wanted to add. When I started to exercise I too had results and then nothing. I found out most was water and that my body was fighting it self for survival. It wasn't untill I ate and feed it what IT wanted before it feed ME what I wanted (fat loss). It was feeding off itself to survival and sucking me dry.
  • Hey Kim, Yes, I don't think you eat enough. If you were in a coma your body would need 1k calories to survive. Basically you are feed ing your body nothing! 200 calorie!? Try some whey protien for breakfast and even after you work out, and probably eat more like a total of 2k calories depending on how much you…
  • By the way..read the labels a lot of "protien" drinks are really bad ie;fat, high calories, sugar... Whey is all you need. Whey Isolate is the purest and most expensive, The walmart, I think it's bodyfortress, is still great and only like fifteen bucks. Also, the best results I have had is 30g at a time or less. I don't…
  • I use the Walmrt whey protien sometimes. The price is good and the chocolate flavor is the best. I mostly use ON 100% whey . Just make sure you are still eating real food. This protien is low in calories but, it is not "food". Meaning it has no nutritional value other than protien and amino acids. However, I have 30g for…
  • Yes. I used to work three jobs, school full-time, and party 6 nights a week. I was like a zombie and didn't even realize it. I thought I was livin it up! Now I'm 40 and really starting to live it up! Also, you will suffer consequences for more than 1 day. You will be dehydrate the the next day, depressed (even if you don't…
  • You probably have some bounce in your walk. I did too untill I crushed my ankle. I had muscular(more than now) calves and loved it! If I can explain it...at the end of my step I would raise up with my toes. Kinda doing a calf raise with each step about 100million times a day without even noticing it. Well, I guess you can…
  • I like to know about how much I weigh. But, I only weigh myself when me and a scale cross paths. Then it's like well, I weigh this much, till I see you again mr.scale. When I own a scale it starts to be obsesive. I don't really know why either. It just calls me. Robert, psst...come stand on me...roooobert... It drives me…
