I for one am the first one to say that I know that exercise will help and push this process along faster. BUT I HATE to exercise. Always have and probably always will. So my goal is to find something that I can do that I can at least tolerate. This week I've gone 3 times to walk in the pool. Yes I said walking in the pool. What I love about this is that I really enjoy being in the water, afterwards I know I have gotten a great workout and yet joints don't hurt. What I do is walk one direction then when you get a current going you walk in the opposite direction. Then you are walking against a current. Last night I threw in swimming a few laps as fast as I could. Actually I raced my boys. Which they thought was cool to have mom racing them.
I also got the best compliment from my boys. We went to my brother in laws house to his pool last night. I was taking my cover up off and they both said "Wow mom you can really tell you've lost weight" To me that was the best compliment ever. When your teenagers think you look good then that makes me feel great.
Tomorrow is weigh in day and I will report and let you know how it goes.

Leslie Sansone's Walk Away the Pounds! The 3 workout dvd. Starts you with the 1 mile walk, and then you progress to 2 miles, then 3. I am up to the 2 Mile which is a 30 minute workout. The 1 mile one is only 18 mins. and is a great way to start out. I highly recommend this program and you can do it in the privacy of your own home.
