  • I'm right there with you, same attitude, I always doubt that I can run, I have to get that out of my head. I did the exact same speeds with the exception of walking, I am a walker and walk fast but on day one I did 2.5 walking, 4.0 jogging. It busted my butt, but I am ready to go again today. Eventually I will do it…

  • I've been reading up on clean eating, which was originally introduced to me by my gyno a few years ago. I'm ready to give this a shot. I am looking for good results, I've been a lull all year, walk, exercise, but am still not eating right. It's time to do this for good.

  • I was a treadmill user and walker, I live in a cold climate so I joined a cheap gym and discovered the elliptical trainier, there is no strain on my legs of knees and I get one great workout in 25 minutes. I am losing inches and it feels great. It burns a lot more calories than the treadmill.

  • The things you eat in your daily diet are all items I have given up. I would never choose any of those foods and think that I would lose weight. You have to change what you are eating, even though you exercise a lot. Poor choices. I'm at a plateau, but I eat natural good foods. I just need to step up the exercise. Good…

  • Onions, everything about them. The smell, the taste the slimy texture when cooked. Never could stand them, never will. I have tried and they give me the gags and the chills.

  • One of my closest friends is a Zumba instructor, he says there are people of every size and fitness level that do it. I haven't tried it yet, but I hear he does a great job.

  • My view is that you need carbs, just not all the bad ones. You need to eat whole grains, stay away from white flour and starchy items such as white rice and potatoes. It's ok to have them, just not in excess. Excessive use of the wrong carbs leads to belly fat and increased chances of type 2 diabetes. Fruit has carbs, but…

  • I have noticed I don't get the tired feeling at 2:30 in the afternoon every day. I love healty foods now. I have given up eating bread, which always seemed to drag me down. I walk faster, I am in a better mood and not willing to come home and scarf a bunch of high fat and calorie foods for no reason. I have a long way to…
