ok, it's 45 days away for me, and my arms still look I've lost my motivation to lose weight at totally the wrong time!

FH encouraged me to return to my former ways and exercise everyday and cut down on carbs a bit... it's 45 days and I can do it! It would be amazing if I could lose about 7 lbs before the big day...

anyone want to join an exercise support thread?

what we'll do:
why don't we report in to this thread EVERYDAY with our triumphs (exercising, stuck to diet), and our mishaps (eating cheese fries, not exercising...)
That way we can pull each other up when we begin to slide.....

the arms are the first place you lose weight on so you can do it...This is what my big problem is, my arms are the first place i gain weight on and even too big for my body...So ive been working them out like crazy. Doing weights, incorporating boxing, using the pilates ball to do push ups used to do with the ball and using the weights with the ball too. You can definitely do it. Even if you do 30 mins a day you will see big results...Whats 30 mins of the day, not alot and it can get you to your goal. You can definitely get to your goal...Good luck

I always tell people about Exercise on demand, they have such great exercises on there, its a great channel...Tamilee webb has great workouts, its called 'i want those arms'
--------------------------------------------------------------------

what channel is it?

I am from queens so it wouldn't be the same channel as yours. but go to where your movie on demand channel is, keep it on guide though and you'll see underneath is Aol music on demand, A&E on demand, Foodnetwork on demand, just keep scrolling down and you'll see it

Me too! I need a little more motivation! I have started eating a little more healthily though, after Easter. I found a breakfast that fills me up and I'm not hungry again for 3 or 4 hrs. My FH made it for me and now i'm hooked. In the blender you put 4 oz milk, 2 oz water, 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder, 2 icecubes and a cup of whatever fruit or mixed fruit. I like blueberry :) I found frozen fresh fruit and that's really good too, until it gets seasonal. Anyway, it makes a huge glass and is really tasty. Now I just have to work on the cupcakes I get at school everytime there is a birthday, lol!

anyone use the tae bo tapes witht the 'billy bands?' aka resistance bands?

I have been using his videos along with the bands and I love it! I am getting so toned from it, especially in the arms where I really need it. I have also been doing WW and have lost almost 30 pounds in a little over four months. Adding exercise has really boosted my weight loss.

well after the non stop eating that I did today, I finished it off with working out . I do not know what came over me, I litterly could not stop stuffing food down my throat, probably PMS. Thats for the thread it gave me motivation to workout today because I was going to take a day off.
