Way to go Vera. Your story is surely a motivational one. Keep up the good work and keep motivating others to become like you. Cheers to you.
That's nice OlivBaby. Encouraging your daughter to stay fit. I can see that you too are motivated to lose weight. However, take quick action and get the ball rolling. Enrol yourself in the gym tomorrow itself. You even have your daughter as company to train with you and guide you as well.
Happy Training
Great story AuntyBoss. Nice way to get the ball rolling. Awaiting positive thoughts from others as well.
I have received several responses from the time I lost 22 pounds, and many women want to know how I managed to do this. I can assure that weight loss is achievable. Firstly, it is important to have people around you to cheer you on and give you a good feeling about weight loss.
As for me, the people in my life respect me and the fact that I am losing weight. I do not go for food items like desserts, snacks, and fast food. All my friends and family know me very well and don't risk offering me these items as they know they will get a scornful glance from me in return.
Although I am still shedding off weight, it is very essential to brand yourself in the presence of like-minded individuals. I am not ready to disrupt or interrupt my weight loss goals.
The trick to setting a good example of a woman who is hell-bent on losing weight is to consider anyone who doesn't support her cause as her enemy. To succeed in this, you must have supportive friends around you. I still have about 30 pounds to release, and I am sure it will happen in due course of time.
The best advice that I can offer to you for losing weight is, start now. Talk to a doctor, or your nutritionist, then come up with a workout plan as well as a meal plan that works for you.
Have a meal diary and consistent journal to help track of how you progress. Don't give up or get discouraged of any setback. Vary the workouts and keep on working on them until you reach your goal. It will take time but it will happen, trust me.
I would request the readers to post their success stories as well, to give some positivity into this forum. Any story will do, but it has to have a happy ending :)
You can lose weight by just eating primal. I challenged myself to more than just the typical workout.
I did unusual things and begun body rocking. I have seen many people who do CrossFit exercises - but for me, I cannot do that because I have some disc injuries which cannot allow me to do CrossFit workouts.
In bodyrocking you use your body weight to improve and build the muscle. I believe you know that muscles help to burn fat.
With bodyrocking, you get both cardio workouts as well as strength training at ago. Sometimes, I also do low-intensity aerobics when I want to either cool down or warm up.
For quite some time I used to do just 30 minutes, but I still got good results. I then began to feel good with the paleo and was filled with so much energy, I have since improved on my workouts, and it feels even good.
I wish you people, good luck.
