That sounds great too! Maybe I should have invested in that system and gotten both games! THe more variety the better! Thanks for the idea!  

So far so good for me over the holidays.. its hard eating right with so many temptations around though!  

Denise :) 

Your welcome, I hear what your saying very difficult, All we can do is are best. And if we succumbed to temptation we can remember that tomorrow is another day, Got that last part of that line from Gone With The Wind,lol. We have to make sure we keep our bodies moving and step up are workouts to make up for any bad food choices or to much food we may eat. 

See ya. 

Hey college student... 

I am almost 40 years old and also a full-time college student. I am going thru the Nursing Program and my obstacle is that I have sooooo much to study, that I don't have a lot of time to exercise, but when I do, I exercise at the gym on campus...no contracts, no payments, all I need is my student ID. I can only tell you what motivates me and I really hope it encourages you...IT"S FREE to the students to start with, the profesors are right there on site and I'm sure they can give you a few hints on exercise, and what really gets me up and going is MUSIC !!! If you love music, get a CD player with your favorite music and go for it. If you do not have a partner, don't wait for one, don't wait for no one...Common you're half my age...Let's go !!! And good luck. 

     I know what is healthy to eat and what is not. I can handle that part of loosing weight. I just can't get motivated to start and keep up with exercising.  I just can't seem to get started. Not sure what I am afraid of? I know I can't do it without exercising. I bought a treadmill 2 months ago...need I say more? 

    Any helpful hints would be much appreciated!!!   

    Thanks 

I exercised tonight, did pilates for 45 minutes. Why? because it gives me endorphins and "endorphins make people happy and happy people just don't kill their husbands!"  I don't like to exercise. I like to have fun and move around, but being out of breath while playing with friends gets embarassing, so I decided to lose weight. hopefully 30-40 pounds and get into shape. Diets and pills...sure they can help....but what really makes the differece, is the changes we're making! and exercise happens to be one of them. 

The trick is to just do it, even though you don't want to  or will not want to.  It doesn't matter.  You just do it.  Simple.  Get yourself into a routine, even if you run for 5 minutes (I have asthma and that's about as long as I can run!!)  The intensity will give you a great workout, but then walk for a favorite TV show at a high pace.  Soon enough, you'll realize that you're doing it out of habit, not because you want to, but because you do.  Then, if you stop for a day, you'll have that nagging feeling, something's missing?  What is it? 

I'm pregnant right now, and I am in dire need of getting back on my treadmill, but I have to wait until I give birth, stupid complications!!!  Made me gain 60 lbs!!!  I went from perfect me,  I was so happy that I lost the weight I needed to, 125lbs to 185lbs!!!  Yeah, I'm mad about that, but I dearly miss my treamill, in the corner, calling my name, everyday.  Ha Ha. 

Do like Nike and Just Do It. 

I will. 

People need to realize that if they find what works for them, keep up with it.  The only problem is that people think they can spot reduce, and you just can't.  

What loses fat is cardio and weight training, what keeps it off is proper diet and nutrition, and by diet I mean nutrition, not the latest fad out there. 

I do agree, I am 32 weeks pregnant, and now huge!  I am not waiting a day before I get back on my treadmill and pick up my weights, after all, I'll have 4 months until bikini season starts!!  AAAAAHHHH!!!  Time to jump up and do it eh? 

 Good luck to ya!  I'm glad it's working for you!
