I sympathize with your food flight. I also tend to live under the “all or nothing” mentality. However, working out has always been an extremely import balance to my happiness. My advice: find something you love. I love running, tennis, and almost anything that allows me to compete with others or even myself. When I run, I set time goals and work to achieve them each week, which in turn increases my fitness.

Don’t just go to the gym just because you feel you have too, experiment with different physical activities and find a few you truly enjoy.

Congratulations on your SITS day! I am fairly new to the community, but so far I am loving it!

I’ll gab about food and weight loss with you all day! I’m at an impasse myself.

I don’t have exercise tips because that is where I falter. I have tips that should work in theory. Like, doing squats or push ups during commercial breaks. I am in love with Jillian Micheals work out video. I started doing them on my fitness on demand channel. She works a ton of muscles at once and really gets your heart pumping.

My overall food advice is to keep it simple and natural- eat mainly fruits and veggies, whole wheat/ grains, nothing processed, and never drink your calories.

My favorite weight loss food trick is to eat cucumbers. They are something like 15-25 calories and are so water laden that they fill you up. They are crunchy and cool which is great during the summer months.

Hang in there and stick with it! As the fitness becomes more routine it does become a little easier. I am currently on day 22 of my 90 day extreme fitness with P90X it is amazing! Hard, but amazing and I am so glad I did it. I feel so much better and working out so hard has made me naturally want more water…and well water has never been my favorite.
Have a great day!

What is an event without food? What is a vacation with food? Or a celebration? If you try to hug a teenager or college student with food, they spurn you. I thought the way to a man’s heart was through his stomach? Well. somebody lied – and they LIED BIG! I’m so distraught, I think I need to go fix me some comfort food! LOL – however, I have started exercising. Now, if everybody would stay out of my 8 to 9 a.m. jazzercise hour I could really get things done!

Congrats on your day to shine in the SITSahood

oooh, you know I had to check out the health and fitness section of your blog! We are digging up some INSANE info about fat and diet over at the Cellulite Investigation. Have you ever heard the “other side” of the lipid hypothesis (the idea that eating fat makes you fat and leads to heart disease, etc)? It’s a little mind-boggling to contemplate, but the implications are staggering. Could saturated fat actually be good for us? Believe it or not, I think it is! (AND, I don’t think it’s what’s making us fat.)

Hello from SITS! Happy Saturday.

My tip for sticking with an exercise regimen is PATIENCE. I always want to see a difference after every workout. Why did I just work my ass off only to not see the results of my labor??? Well, if I remind myself that real results won’t start to show for a week, maybe two weeks after starting something new it’s a lot easier to make through each day!

I agree. Drinking water is a real key in weight loss. When it comes to exercise, I just think of it as something I do – like brushing my teeth and combing my hair.
