When I came home from NAMS and looked at the pictures I cringed! I asked myself “What happened?” and decided to do something – anything – to feel better. I used to do Pilates 3x week and dancing 2 days but then we moved and NO gyms or anything within an hour’s drive. I tried driving to dance class for a month but it got to be too much as it took up the entire evening with a 3.5 hour round trip.

So I went online and found a very basic exercise program that I could live with. I’ve been walking three times a week (M-W-F) for 40 minutes and T-Th I do a short 15-minute workout with the exercise ball. On the weekends I do something, even if it’s washing the car or cleaning the pool. Two weeks ago I did the Volksmarch 5K with my dogs. I haven’t lost any weight but I feel 110% better! Oh and I take multi-vitamin, calcium, and fish oil. My son watches Dr. Oz and honed in on the “what every woman past 40 should take” segment. So there you go.

And I think my butt is shrinking slowly but surely 🙂

Wow, Scott’s program is like a full immersion course, nice! Plus he cooks with his shirt off. 🙂 I’m happy I committed to going to my local gym. I’ve been feeling like crap from sitting all day at the computer. 3 workouts a week and I’m feeling much less cramped and stiff.

In reply to Scott Tousignant. I like this 4 minute idea ~ fun and falls into the quickie of it all. I do take a break every hour to stretch etc, but throwing a little extra in that break sounds like a good idea.

In reply to Nicole. Just a little walk around the block today with the dog and some heavy duty living room cleaning between work sessions a day - not a lot, but better than yesterday.

I was bad. I didn’t do any exercising. Please don’t hurt me, Nicole. I promise to get started tomorrow!

I love the elephant butt. May print that out and put it on the fridge!

Sun Salutation.
Ten glasses of water (at least) per day.
No coffee, no cream, no sugar. Hot tea instead.
Low carb, lots of salad.

I started on Saturday and I feel pretty dang good. 🙂

In reply to The Mom.

You’re as young as you feel.
My age fluctuates on any given day. LOL But once I lose some weight I know I’ll feel much younger. 🙂
