maybe its uphill to work... and going home will be easier going down hill :-D You will work up to it in no time. I bike a few miles in only about 5 minutes now - and I am NOT in shape. I just learned how to work the gears properly (FINALLY) and ride almost daily. Gears make a WORLD of difference. Not just knowing when to…

I did leg raises, knee raises (seated on bench of laying flat on the floor) to work abs without moving my head/neck after a car accident

Or your laying therecovered in bubbles hoping you can get up ok and not have to call for help! Then when you do get up the water is only around ankle deep!

YES! Sometimes I think to myself that the person who designed certain ones never used a stal before! Open the door, squeeze past the toilet paper roll hangin on the side of it, while straddling the toilet trying to not fall in, then close the door and sit all crooked on the toilet seat because the toilet paper roll holder…

OHHHH i really hate that!

2% milk 2% cheese apple sauce (probabbly 2% cinnamon) egg beaters (maybe only 2% of a real egg) and chilled water (only 2% natural)
-
OHHHH that is a huge issue I have!!! Hate saving calories for a special meal that day and then the food isn't good or service ruins the meal and then you feel like you wasted those cal's!!

Just keep it up, if you are moving more then you did before and eating healthy choices then you did before then the weight will come off... for the next few weeks just focus on "NSV" NON SCALE VICTORIES. Like noticing that a shirt is fitting you looser around the mid section or on the cuffs of your arms. That your shoes…

my fastest breakfast is to boil some eggs in advance and keep them in the fridge. chop one up and heat it in a bowl in the microwave jst a few seconds then fold it between a piece of bread or toast. another fast thing is egg substitute (egg beaters) poured in a bowl and toss in some pre chopped veggies, ham, sausage etc.…

my back without fat rolls around the bras area!

i like the new V8 Energy Shots. They taste good. Its a serving of fruits/veggies. A little green tea. The same amount of caffine as a cup of coffee. And lots of potassium and B vitamins. 50 calories

cold onions less tears. cut the onion in a pot or bowl full of water (cut it under water). and when your done, rub your hands on the stainless steel sink - it gets rid of the smell on your hands. they even sell little stainless steel bars that have the word "SOAP" engraved on them to use for rubbing on your hands after…

LOL at above comments. I just want to pay my bills for now!

Just think of the example you are setting for them.

I can be complete exhausted after work. And am not a morning person so doing workouts first thing is NOT going to happen for me. I skip the workout but then force myself to stick to eating healthier that day. Which sometimes encourages me to exercise so that I can spoil my taste buds at dinner. But if I am just not feeling…
-
ha ha ha ha!!!! I know that feeling! I have been dieing for my chips n dip but resisted too. Great job.
-
oh that's awesome! I am waiting for my old jeans to fit again!
-
what is your exercise like? I eat what I want... like today I had taco bell bean burrito AND double decker AND carmel apple empinada... and still under my calories for the day because I rode my bike for a while after work and burned off over 700 calories!!! You need to first invest in a heart rate monitor (with chest…

"hike, bike, kayak and swim " I like it :-D

I have a lot of nieces and nephews. Three of those nephews I spend a lot of time with and they are an active bunch, so back when I was healthier I was able to keep up with them better having fun at the park and tennis courts. Weight is just a number and in the end it doesn't matter as much as how I feel. When I am working…

My personal trainr always wanted me to do strength then cardio... he didn't have some cheap certification paper... he has a four yr degree in sports med's... so I trust him and that there is probably some reason for it.

If you don't have a iTouch, iPhone, or android phone... you can find a great podcast to place on your regular MP3 Player (I got just a $10 MP3 Player). I like the free one available at http://runningintoshape.com/ under the 5K Training Downloads tab.

when doing bicep curls you should not be swinging or moving with your back to help lift the weight, if that's the case go to a smaller weight. To watch your own form with curls you can still sit (they should have benches at your gym) with your back against the upright bench through your whole movement. The machines are…

HRM are WONDERFUL. If someone is thinking of joining a gym they should just take the money and buy a HRM. Wear it anywhere and find out how much calories you burn with accuracy, I love mine! I hate jogging and have never really been one for bike riding, but now I can see just how much I burn it is amazing and I know just a…

buying boots with side zippers can sometimes help you find a pair that will work. Also something I have seen a lot of in the fall previews of department stores is boots that have like knitted sweater material from the ankle up so it is like leg warmers on boots - they look cute. My sister is in great shape and thin, but…

french fries from Sonny's Bar-B-Q heavily salted & dipped in their ranch dressing... mmmm oh god so good.
-
ok... only keeping healthy food in the house doesn't work for a binge eater... because then you just go through your fav drive thru and order two meal and maybe a dessert. I had bags of baby carrots, apples, banana's etc just being thrown away because they went bad. The only thing that "Helps" me is to exercise REALLY hard…
-
If your doing strength training it can help. You will loose fat but the muscle size replacing it is good and firms them up making them appear younger. My last time loosing LOTS of weight while weight training I actually gained a few cup sizes. BECAUSE everytime you go down in a rib cage size (38 to a 36) you are suppose to…

Then you can always combine your "out of control" weekends with some out of control exercise. That way you have earned those extra exercise calories to eat. Make it a long family bike ride or walk. Some basketball or volleyball. Indoor walking is good for cold weather seasons. Make a game out of it at the mall with your…
