Non-exerciser has to share this

I couldn't go to a gym without being heavily medicated. Too fat, no cute clothes, I sweat, too far, no time, no gas in the car, no tolerance for skinny cute girls.

Do what I did. Do it one time. Try to go 10 minutes at a leisurely pace. If you're really dying after 10 minutes stop, pat yourself on the back for a fine 10 minutes and vow to do 12 minutes the next day. Then do it.

Or, like Carlene, just put on some sneakers, walk out the front door and keep going.

All I know is once I vowed to TRY a little each day, the scale started moving and my waistbands started getting looser.

Coincidence?

I'm really proud of you. Do you sweat yet? I love to feel myself break into a full out sweat. It's so.... satisfying.
Keep up the good work!

Nathalie,

you are a sick sick girl ... :welldone2:

i am just experiencing the sweating again ... it was there quite a bit when i first started, but now i have to really work hard on the treadmill (more than 25 mins and a pretty big incline) to start sweating ...

until today ... i made friends with Ed (elliptical) ... 5 minutes on that and it looked like it was raining outside. so i went to the treadmill for 21 mins then back on the elliptical ... i could almost wring my clothes out at the end.
