I'm home now after completing my freshmen year at college, and I have decided to get back into shape, but I've been exercising fairly solidly for the past 2 weeks and I'm not really noticing a difference especially in the stomach and thigh areas. I don't really know what to do.
Today:
30 mins on strides machines
1 hour yoga class
I do variations of this at least 3 or 4 times a week, and the other days I may do a yoga and then an hour of pilates or 45 minutes of muscle training.
I'm wondering if anyone can help me with this, the calories burned that the machine tells you, how accurate would you say that was?
I also spent a day baking a couple days ago... and that was not the greatest idea as I've been gorging on sweets since..

How do you guys keep the motivation for regular excercise? I always have spurts of motivation to work out, but that lasts like a week and i go back to being a couch potato!

I agree with what's been said so far.

I also think that doing exercises that you like or are interested in helps a lot. It eventually becomes something you enjoy as opposed to a chore or an obligation.

Going at your own pace is a good way too IMO. I remember when I felt so tired after using the elliptical for 5 minutes, but I slowly built my endurance over the months. Now I can stay on for up to 30 minutes without feeling too tired!

Best of luck on establishing a routine.
