Hey lady-
I can completely relate to not wanting to 'burden' your friends with your 'weight problems'. The only thing is, most of the time, if they become aware of the gravity of your situation, they are more than happy to listen to you.. It's when they think you're just complaining about your weight that they begin to drift off into lala land. But from personal experience, once I informed a few of my closest friends that this wasnt just an annoyance but a disease- a disorder, they suddenly woke up and started paying attention. Perhaps you should do the same- make your friends understand that this isnt just a minor issue but something that pervades your everyday thinking. Just a consideration.. Food for thought [no pun intended].
It sounds like your
fitness potential is there- you seem to know what to do to obtain your desired results. I follow the 'buff brides woirkout' only because I am trying to tone for my
body. Thus far, i like it as the
exercises are very 'female-oriented' and enjoyable. I'd be happy to send you a few of the routines if you wanted. As for
cardio, i'm a bit lazier than most- i do about 20 minutes on my weight training days [usually m,w,f] and 40 minutes on alternating days. I know i need to step up the
cardio to burn the desired
calories so i'm en route to this
goal!
COuldnt stay up for last hour of the bachelor- searching internet to figure out who won! Have a great day and keep your focus!
