Man if only I could get off the couch. I recently told my husband that we could use our house as a gym. Squats with the couch, sit-ups using the floor. Running up and down the stair well and much much more.
I have had 3 gyms in the past. Lucille Roberts- I went a handful to times and couldn't cancel the contract so I paid for gym I didn't use. Then there was Bally's- again I went their twice and paid a 3 year contract!!!! To break a Bally's contract is like impossible. you have to either die or move an insane amount of miles from a bally's gym. Then there was Planet Fitness. Hubby and I started going. Super cheap by the way! and we never made a routine of it. Stopped going and eventually cancelled.
So my treadmill at home broke. There is a gaping hole in the belt. So maybe Planet fitness could happen again. But if we move I don't want to be under contract with a gym.
I recently lost a lot of weight. when I quit drinking alcohol pounds shed quickly. I now fit into my size 2 jeans. But all my weight is in my belly. Sometimes a touch it and think: Erin you feel pregnant .. lol!!!!
I've tried dieting by juicing and cutting down on carbs. Boy is it hard. I prefer to eat what I want to eat and that's that.
Loosing weight also is easier if your partner does it with you! And my husband wants to lose weight so that's good.
I've always dreamed of being a runner. I can barely walk fast and lose my breath. Let alone run or jog!
Maybe I'll get off my duff and start. There's no time like the present.

Erin I'm at the hairdresser getting foil color and just read this post. I had to get weighed at Dr. recently and I hit 153. Ouch but haven't done a thing since to change. Back in 2009 I lost 20 lbs and felt very good at 135. So as you I too did the juicer for a while this year and I aware they were high in calories. Your rich no exercise no progress with weight loss and no energy or mood boost. I need a push rich now so maybe your words will have impact. Great post Erin. You got me thinking.
So glad I could get you thinking. I need to exercise so bad. I huff and puff going up stairs. And I quit smoking so I have no excuse! We can do it
Don't beat yourself up girl...you walked down to the lake for fireworks and then back up the hill in the dark! You did good! Marie
