Since running up and down my stairs got really boring, really fast - I moved outside. There's a small canyon right near my house and I take my dogs there after they've had breakfast. They go for their well - you know - their morning constitution and I go for exercise. There's a small hill that I sprint up and walk down, sprint up and walk down etc. After 10 times up and 10 times down - I'm beat, but then I go back inside for the sit ups - which I don't hate quite so much these days. By the way I did 150 of them today, in 3 sets of 50.
The funny thing is if I say I'll do my exercising in the morning, I will. But if I put it off until later in the day, I'll find some excuse not to.

I'm exactly the same way!! If i don't work out in the morning and wait til night it's hit or miss!! You're not alone! haha
Lately I've been making myself go to a class at 24 hour fitness because then I feel like I have to participate because I have someone pushing me. It definitely helps.
Hi Sam! Count me in. I'd LOVE to lose some weight too and I'm finally inspired to do so. Ok, looking in the mirror has inspired me as well.
But I think I have to hit the gym (at least I have one here). Hey, whatever works, right?!
Today's weigh in: 133.
Heya Sam, howsabout an RSS feed so I can syndicate you to Livejournal?
good job! Keep up the good work! I just started running last month for the same reasons...i don't want to stop eating, drinking, or continuing to gain weight...so i'm running now. ta dah! and i kinda sorta enjoy it.
:)
I was just driving home from school (AI Baking/Pastry) and I was thinking I need to start some kind of exercise. Baby steps are key right now. I just started my first semester and I am OVERWHELMED! I am trying not to turn to food. lol. I'm in.
Hey, Sam. Ironically I'm eating a BLT sandwich I bought for lunch, piled on with bacon, as I am writing this. No worries - I've picked out most of the bacon. Ikh! Never having that again!
I am making efforts (despite the BLT) to lose a little bit of weight myself with hopes to get back in shape and look reasonably well in a bathing suit. I am doing this through intensive yoga/pilates and walking/hiking. I used to go to the gym, but since starting yoga, the gym has become less attractive to me. The loud music and stinky smell has gotten to me.
Brave and very admirable of you to do this in public. Good luck on your journey to better health!
Hey Sam!
i want to applaud your efforts!
its a commitment to want to get back into shape so you feel good!
i am a local trainer and teach boot camps, pilates, boxing, kick boxing, core work, etc..
basically what your body needs is a shock to the system..
i would love to do a boot camp type class, for everyone who likes to train outside, SD is a beautiful gym!
