It made me
ENERGIZED
How I did it: So, I noticed my clothing looking BAD ON ME all the sudden, so I got a WII Fit and started weighing myself every day and felt stupid when I would gain weight. So basically I started eating better and stopped slamming on macaroni at 1 am blazed and started to just eat fruit and veggies and ride my bike much more. It worked, now it is ok to slam on pasta SOMETIMES. Read how I did it…

How I did it: ....but after forcing myself, I began to enjoy it, and now I really look forward to/ crave being physically active! I go to the gym, run around my neighborhood, do yoga in my room... whatever. it's totally worth doing, eases body pain, makes you feel happier and more peaceful, and of course helps moderate weight!

fit
How I did it: I retook my taekwondo classes. It was so much fun that I didn't need any additional motivation. I go to the trainings as they are real pleasure.Of course, 3-4 first trainings were hard as I was out of shape completely but now I feel really good after each training and I lost some weight as well (although that was not a goal I had). Read how I did it…
It made me
fit and healthy
How I did it: By learning to enjoy exercise. It releases endorphines that can make you feel on top of the world! Also, by finding a workout routine you like. I hate cardio (unless it's dancing), but I love to do accelerated weight lifting where I keep my heart rate up. Read how I did it…

Miles miles miles
2 days ago
So today I woke up later than expected so I hurried up and got some exercise in. I power walked 1 mile in 12 minutes and then did 10 minutes working on my abs alone, then another 10 minutes of stretching.
And I am a retard. I learned that when you are suppose to “tighten” your stomach, it’s not to suck it in, it’s to TIGHTEN it as in when someone punches you and you tense up, THAT’S what you are suppose to do. Haha, I just always sucked in.
Also, I was reading in my cousins calorie book that a workout that is good for everyone is walking. Start weeks 1 and 2 walking one mile in 18 minutes. Then weeks 3 and 4, walk 1.5 miles in 24. Now the dvd I have that teaches you to walk 5 miles makes you walk TWO miles in 24 minutes. ONE mile in 12 minutes. So I think what I’ve got going on is good. I’ll walk at least one mile in 12 minutes everyday and alternate something after words like yoga, palates, weights, abs… whatever. Then once I can get a good mile down or when I really have time I’ll move it up to 2 miles. That’s a good plan for right now.
I didn’t want to really do any kind of weights but reading my cousins book, muscle helps you burn more calories so I’ll put more time into that. This weekend my husband and I are going to the YMCA and I’m actually excited. I wanna use the treadmill and weight machines.

My first day being back on track
3 days ago
Yaaaaah!!!! I walked/jogged 2 miles in 24 minutes. Before I could only do 1. And somehow I can breath easier.. deeper, especially while being active. And I learned how to breath in deep and exhale slowly while exercising, it’s like extra fuel to keep you going. That experience was so awesome. hahaha
It feels so good to bc I was in such a slump before and getting kina depressed, then I made myself get up and do a power walk/jog and now I feel much better. I’m proud of myself that I did that.
Also, to have my son help me workout. LOL He walked in place with me and then when I did my side steps he would run around me in circles. lol Then when I did my stretches he would also do those with me. lol He’s only 2 so it’s really cute. :)

Start anew
4 days ago
OK so I get pretty bored pretty easily which is honestly why I believe I stopped working out. I did the same thing every day with very little variation. I am so tired of complaining about being out of shape and Im finally going to do something about it. Whats the best way to pick up where I left off? Ill tell you what, do something different. and with that I decided to sign up for a weekly yogalattes class! Im so excited! I know this is going to spark my interest in working out again! Wish me luck!

Plan of Action
1 week ago
I will start off slow. Just being a bit more active each day and trying to get in at least 10 minutes a day of aerobic activity. Then I’ll move up and try to excercise at least 30 min. 3 to 6 times a week. My goal is to run 1 mile in 11 minutes. Eventually I might even pass that.

Weekly progress
1 week ago
Okay, so this is my first official week where I’ve exercised 5 days out of 7. I’ve been using (don’t laugh =P ):
-#2 of Carmen Electra’s Fit to Strip (good for someone who needs to get in shape before moving into the more intensive stuff)
-Yoga DVD
-Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred
-Wii Fit for days that I work extra long shifts and have less motivation for the more intensive stuff. Usually just to get blood pumping on a lighter level and keep the habit locked in.
I’ve lost a few pounds, and I feel motivated to keep this up.

In the last two days, I’ve danced to a live band for over an hour, and raked leaves and grass for almost two hours. Nothing like it!
