Good for you Tracey. I've lost my passion for working out - having not been able to do it much in the last 2 months. Fitness center closed last night due to inclimate weather but I could have done something at home. I'll commit to do the fast track tonight and my weight training regime on Wednesday. denise

All I can say is ouch. Due to TOM my legs were sore last night but I atleast managed 30 min on the bike.

I had to push myself! I did it though.

Bought a bench with it I got 4x free Bill phillips body for life dvds (the programme Iam following) Ok now I feel like and idiot!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Iam trying so hard to do 45 min cardio when one only needs to do 20 minutes (ok its in my nature to not read everything properly I skim through a lot of things) Ok Iam trying a lot of new things with my eating, I dont know exactly if Iam doing it right.

I learnt something else from the dvds! I try to rush through my workouts to get to watch my 7.30pm programmes (best programmes are at 7.30pm) so I look like Iam on fast forward while exercising.......................Iam not supposed to Iam supposed to lift and realease slowly!

Why am I doing so many things wrong? I either take this seriously or I might as well leave it........................and Iam NOT going to leave it Iam going to work my ass off even if it means sitting in the gym until midnight I will do it!!!!

Sweetie, you are not doing anything wrong. It's a learning curve - you will get there. I'm proud of your commitment to make some important physical fitness changes in your life. You're inspiring! Denise

Ok yesterday was upper body, oh boy did I do myself proud! I lifted and realeased as slowly as I could. It took 45 minutes like the book said, not 30 minutes like I was doing in the past. Yes Iam sore today but that is a good sign.

Me and my new bench.................... I was doing sit ups after the sit ups I couldnt get off the bench, I didnt know what to do and of course I got the giggles. So I used Mcguiver skills pulled the walker closer to me thank goodness it was in close range and easy to pull and lifted myself up like that. Holy smoke I was thinking of rolling off it and falling to the ground but the sissy in me just wouldnt fall for that one. Oh it was so funny, I atleast got a good laugh at myself.
