That is difficult...divide the amount of time you think is for cardio and then strength. Under cardio go for "high impact aerobics" if that is what it is or "low impact" then go to strength and find push ups, crunches, etc and then your time! See if that works.

I think if it works for you...go for it!! Jillian Michaels "Trouble Zones" DVD is a great work out as well!!

With any workout its always good to do some type of warm up. Before a run though, I do a 3 to 4 minute warm up that I learned from a Jillian Michaels DVD. I prefer to warm up my entire body...I even do some deep breathing!! It works for me and I've not had any aches or pains afterwards. Even walking for 5 minutes is a good…

Add me too!! It s great to have a strong support circle and everyone here is super fantastic!!! :flowerforyou:

Make sure you have good running shoes...yes, they do make a big difference! Always carry water and if you can eat some carbs beforehand...I eat a plain bagel and maybe fruit...banana or raisens. Start out slowly...meaning walk first and at a good pace then jog a bit and then go back to walking. A sports watch with a timer…

I don't eat alot of meat either just to keep my cholesterol in check. I try to eat fish a couple time s a week and whole grain pastas. Take a look at Kraft Foods.com for a variety of recipes, also, Better Homes and Gardens!

I prefer to run in the early morning. Its cooler and there are less people and traffic about. You should choose when it works best for your time schedule. Try different times and see what works!

I started at about your weight 2 years ago with the 30 Day Shred DVD and I'm only able to work out 30 minutes in the morning. I was amazed at the results!! I did each level for two weeks...my fav is level 2! After I completed the entire DVD I just kept repeating the levels. I borrowed Trouble Zones from my sister and…

Jillian Michaels' 30 day shred DVD, Trouble Zones DVD or Boost Metabolism DVD...I believe in Jillian!!!

Glad you're here!! I wish you all the success!!! :flowerforyou:

Great job!!

We are all there with you...no one likes to fail but it happens and you know what...you pick yourself up, brush off the dust and move on. As long as you can fill your lungs with air, you can keep moving. We all have insecurities but admitting them and facing them makes us stronger and better. You've already made admissions…

I used to put salt on cold chicken, watermelon...then my parents decided to take salt off the table for their health and went with Mrs. Dash and other spices to flavor their foods... I was in college at the time. My diet consisted of dorm food, top ramen and pizza!!! I was very active with aerobics and dancing! After I got…

Hi Tim!! The support circle here is fantastic!! Add me if you'd like!! :happy:

I'm not sure I can make you laugh...my husband is the comedian in the relationship. But I will tell you that I think...from your profile picture...that you have a very nice smile and really smooth pretty skin! Your eyes have a bit of mischief to them and I bet you can cheer a room up when you enter. I hope you are not sad.…

I started 2 years ago with 30 day shred...love it!! Now I alternate between Trouble Zones and Boost Metabolism...Jillian Micheals is awesome!!! The circuit training is great for someone who may only have 30mins to an hour to do a good workout. And yes...they work and reults are definite!!!!

Sure!! The more the merrier!!

I love Extra Mint Chocolate Chip gum!! I usually only chew a half a stick but it helps with the chocolate I don't want to eat!! I have pretty good will power and MFP food diary always has me thinking about what I eat and my calorie count...guess it keeps me in line!! :flowerforyou:

Add me if you'd like!! It feels good to have a great support circle!! :smile:
