I am finally going to start working out this year. I have one semester of university left. That means I have one semester of what is essentially a FREE gym membership left.

 

[couture_goddess]

this thread is an EXCELLENT idea. This year i am going to start working out regularly, and stop eating meat (again). And to cut back smoking.. all the best luch to us all!!!!

 

[Belowen]

I was thinking of joining the Gym, but I do have some equipment at home, and beautiful weather coming up - so I'm planning on just taking advantage of that

 

[Meg]

yes my goal is to go the gym at school. my school is so small i just have to walk across a parking lot to get to the gym and my goal is to make no excuses. I know I will feel better about myself if I go. Not just losing weight but also achieving something I've wanted to do for a long time. Plus exercizing is supposed to help with depression which is help i could use

That's another thing that's going to inspire me, doing something that I really want, even if my slack body prevents me doing it sometimes!

[Belowen]

Yay! But it wasn't my idea it was Tealady's idea!

 

[LolitaLuxe]

i just saw the other thread......

cool idea tealady!!!

 

[pinkcouture]

Great idea Belowen!! I need to head back to the gym..I want to lose about another 8 or 9 pounds!

 

[tgp]

10 lbs is my goal. I am looking into dance classes, aerobics if I can't find a dance class, and yoga. I am trying to cut carbs and eat healthier in general. I need support so this group is great!

 

[PrinceOfCats]

I'm increasing my daily 4 mile run to 6 miles and buying myself a 16Kg. barbell (what fun and larks...) and gaining 1/2 a stone.

 

[lovespell]

My goal is to workout 3-5 times a week. I'd like to lose about 7 pounds. I'd also like to tone my back/shoulders/arms so they look great in my prom dress.

Good luck to everyone!

 

[LadyIllusion]

MESMERIZED 50LBs sounds like a lot, are you sure about losing this much weight?


I need to lose some weight myself before summer arrives and before i attend fashion college. I plan to use the Southbeach diet and try to keep it going for the full 4 weeks.

Has anyone ever tried this and what was the results?

 

[Belowen]

Well the year hasnt started out the best seeing as I've just now recovered from my hangover! I have started drinking water though, and eaten mostly salad and fruit today, which was a nice change from the normal hangover remedy of greasy junk food!

 

[DressageChick]

I want to lose 30 lbs and work out 6x a week.

thats a start i had my ' start ' too

story:

well i am going to purchase some meditation tapes, so while i was thinking of what i wanted, and looking up classes ( ???? meditation class LOL ) I got the genius idea to download some meditation. i have this deepak chopra series LOL i cant believed i listened to it but anyway, i did feel relaxed.

BUT there is a slew of guided meditations on filesharing programs, so many are really hilarious, like this guy who did these ' new age / hynosis p*rn'
( it didnt work on me...) after hearing that i was feeling quite

 

[Belowen]

Hypnosis p*rn?



I'm going to start walking in the mornings, because it gets lighter (and hotter) earlier - which makes it a lot easier to get out of bed!

just got back a little while ago from the ages i spent in the airport and haven't eaten that well (two packs of easy mac) however considering I hadn't eaten in over 12 hours i'll let it go. I've d/led pilates off the internet before which is a nice alternative to buying the things themselves.
