Calorie Counting & Not enough Exercise equals=
Do not follow my bad example from today's events. Today I ate between 950 to 1000 calories, but sat on my tuckess and did not workout. ( BIG HUGE NO, NO FOR ME )
You will not make a dent in what you want to accomplish if all you plan on doing is counting calories. You must add workouts into the mix. A good 60 min workout is all you need to do, but don't over exert yourself. You need to build up your body, not burn it out.
Make sure you're using the right breathing techniques, and stay hydrated. Gradually move yourself up to longer workouts.

Slacking
Today I had a very slow start, but decided to take the old bicycle out and ride around my neighborhood for a while until I feel like I punished myself enough for slacking off today.
" What exercises have you guys been doing to get yourself to the new you? "

Lets CHALLENGE ourselves!!!

Hello Everybody!!
My name is Milani, but I go by Mila, and I have something to say.
I don't know about you, but I'm tired of looking at myself in the mirror and being disgusted. I know how I got here, but I don't have the strength, ambition or wheel power to get myself out this slump. Last year I lost my mother to lung cancer. It was a very hard and difficult time for me. I remember when I first found out about my mother's cancer; It was like someone just hit me as hard as they could in my stomach and I felt the air escape me. For 6 months I took care of my mother. I couldn't show my emotions in front of her, so I started feeding my emotions. Just watching as my mother was slowing deteriorating. She passed away March 15th, 2009. She has only been gone a year, and I still find myself feeding my emotions. My whole life I have never been over weight unless it was due to pregnancy. I miss my mother very much and I still find it difficult, but I need to break myself away from the mourning and move onto living life. I just don't have the strength, even though I tell myself everyday night that I'm gonna get up and exercise, but it never happens.
I've tried the diet pills, I tried counting calories, I even bought the wii fit. You know what the wii fit works, but its so hard to doing it all alone. I need that push, that sense of security of working out with someone. I recently purchased the Biggest Loser Wii Fit game. It is so fun to do, but then again its hard to do when you are the only one working out. I need that push, and I need the competition. I love watching the show Biggest Loser and I haven't heard of yet of a Biggest Loser in our area. There are so many companies, neighborhoods and family and friends that are doing the Biggest Loser Challenge, but haven't heard of that in Alton, IL or surrounding areas.
So this is my Biggest Loser Challenge for Alton, East Alton, Grafton, Granite, Godfrey, Wood River, Roxana, Bethalto, Edwardsville, and surrounding areas in Metro East IL..Lets show them what we're worth.
I want us to push ourselves as far as we can push ourselves..I want to keep an open connection with everyone who joins..Be able to post our weight loss!!
Our Starting weight will remain secret. No one needs to know!!! We will just list our GOAL WEIGHT and how many pounds we lose a week.
