Diet and Exercise
Quote From: rissa140LOL, YES as hard & tiring as it is I DO exercise when I'm dieting! Thats the thing that usually ends my diets as well cause I get so sick of doing it that I stop & tell myself I will start again in a few days....then I DONT and there goes that diet! Each time I start a new diet, I say that I'm gonna try harder to keep exercising and I just always end up quitting! So NOW, I'm gonna try to do it kinda backwards....I'm gonna start exercising a few times a week FIRST, THEN start on the dieting, portion control & eating right! I'm glad that you dont have an eating disorder and thanx on the wishing me luck, I'm gonna need it, LOL! You sound just like me. I had issues with exercising....I had that "all or nothing" attitude, though----Once I would get going with exercising-if something would happen and I missed exercise for one day I gave up completely.
I used to get bored with exercise and give up the whole shebang...the diet and exercise.
Since August, I have started counting my calorie intake and doing alittle exercise.
I have looked up tips on exercise and it is recommended to change up the routine alittle so as to not get bored. I have videos and dumbbells and treadmill, etc....so I change up the exercise when it gets annoying to do.
I am now down almost 30lbs and it just motivates me to keep going. If I do miss the exercise--I no longer give up the entire thing....This is for life and I just get back on track the next day. Oh, and I do drink at least 64oz of water a day.
I wish you the best of luck with your weightloss. Feel free to email me if you would like a buddy. :)
