Ok girls, I finally did it...

Ok, yesterday I finally did it and rejoined WW again after putting on (gulp) 48lbs since I got married (that 48lbs in a 14 month period). YIKES!

Ok, so I need to stay motivated to do this. I have a wedding in June 08 that I need to get in shape for and we are going to TTC in summer of 2008. I need to loose some weight here.

I think finally putting in writting will help. Just wanted to share.

Also, does anybody know any cheap ways to exercise. I can't afford a gym or a machine and since I work in NYC and walk a lot, I don't really feel like coming home and walking. Any video tapes you girls love? Has anyone bought the Dancing with the stars video exercise DVD?

Thanks

I used to do step aerobics in my house to stay in shape.

I used to love doing them in gym class - and it's great for winter when the weather isn't great enough to do something outside.

I've heard this too. Also, those exercise balls usually come with some video. I even picked up cheap exercise ball videos at Walmart too. The balls are pretty cheap.

When I worked/lived in the city, I walked at lunch time. I didn't realize what it did for me until I moved out here and gained a lot of weight in a short time. Keep doing that!!!

In the past, I have done Gilad's videos and I loved him!

There are some pretty good sales on exercise equipment if you want to buy something.

Once I have the baby, I plan on really tackling the weight. So, around October I want to join you in your weight loss goal. We can keep each other motivated!!!!

Re: Ok girls, I finally did it...

Thats great, Kerry!
DH and I try to get out and walk at night. If you could also by some free weights, you should because building muscle will help you burn more calories. .
You could also buy a jump rope and do that, it is GREAT cardio!
