This is my first exercise entry and I'm so excited. I have been wanting to start a gym log for a long time but now I'm determined to exercise. I think it is the key to losing weight and looking better. I wasn't feeling too well yesterday but I felt strong enough to do my exercise. I'm glad that I did, because once I start exercising, I get the inspiration to keep going. I'm very heavy (and very short) so it takes longer for me to see the results that many others see when they lose weight but I can't let that stop me. Eventually, I'll see the loss, whether that be in a month or in a year. I'm going to trust all these success stories and I'm going to just be persistent and see where that gets me. Well, let me stop rambling and tell you what exercise I did yesterday:

Aerobics
Leslie Sansone's WalkAerobics Miracle Mile

Weight Training
Joyce Vendral's weight training made easy: Lower body
First Week: 10 reps. - 1set of each exercise
Thighs
Squat/ Side leg lift/ Leg curl/ Lunge
Hips/Buttocks
Standing butt squeeze/ Straight leg kick-up/ Standing back-leg extension/ Bent-knee kick up
Abdominals
Concentrated butt lift/ Ceiling lift/ Crunch/ Knee-raised crunch
Calves
Seated straight-toe raise/ Seated angled-out toe raise/ Standing straight toe raise/ Standing angled-in toe raise

I'm going to raise my number of sets until I get to 3 sets of ten. I will also use a little heavier weight for each additional set. Hopefully, I'll get good results. I can always switch to BFL because I bought the book a long time ago but never tried it but for now I'll just do what I'm doing.
