My size hasn't really changed much over the past couple years, I've really just gone up one size, but I've gained about 15 pounds since I started dating FH. . .
I think what kills me most is that I have gained so much weight in my face and chest. I really HATE how I look in pictures, I feel like I look sloppy.and my shirts never fit right on top.
Its so hard, but I NEED to start working out again. Its just so hard to get started.
Coleen, I know how you feel about it being hard to get started. So what I did was gave myseld more than a month to get used to the idea. I said in mid-Nov, 'In January, I am going to join a gym.' And I thought about it a lot through Nov and Dec. and then did it Dec 31. :)
My insurance co. also belongs to this program called GlobalFit, which has AWESOME prices for local gyms, so it wasn't too hard on my wallet. I found a small gym in my town for $25 a month. See if your co / insurance plan is part of anything like this and then find a SMALL gym (NYSC was still $70 a month, wayyyy too much for me).
GOOD LUCK SWEETIE. You can do it!!!!!!!

As you are saying that I should aim 2-3 times per week haha, I stumbled on Oprah's bootcamp.
She says you should work out 8X per week.
I guess that is pretty extreme lol, but her 'bootcamp' does have a lot of great ideas.
I think that every week I am going to incorporate one new thing into my lifestyle that will help me get to where I want to be.
This week I am going to go to the gym 2 times, and drink 8 glasses of water everyday.![]()
Anyone else want to committ to anything?
I loooove the weight I am at but I dont love the cellulite on the backs of my butt and thighs. Thats what motivates me to want to excercise! Oh and my high cholesterol motivates me to want to be healthier.

I am going to drink less beer as I think my stomach started to grow as I started to actually like beer. I don't even drink too much - I drink wine mostly though, or mixed drinks like vodka and cranberry or vodka and tonic - but the beer i think is what has helped my stomach grow. :)
So, I will drink less alcohol altogether, get in the habit of having water at home more, and when I do drink, try to drink white wine instead of red or beer.

8x a week???? That is more than 1x a day. Who has time to exercise 2x a day??????? I have a hard time finding one hour a day - hence one of the reasons I will be going to the gym only 2x a week to start!

Mixed drinks have a lot of calories too, so don't think it's all the beer. Light beer on average have around 100 calories for 12 oz. Mixed drinks like margaritas and martinis are loaded with calories. Vodka cranberry is full of sugar and calories. Wine has about 150 calories for 6 oz.

What gym is that? My insurance company is part of global fit too.
I would get out and walk, if I had someone to go with!!!! Mary MOB
Definitely when I try on jeans that I USED to fit in. I keep them hidden away with hopes that someday they'll button again!
