Day 1

Let me know how it goes! The video sounds promising, I do 20 minutes of HIIT sprinting/jogging as often as possible and it REALLY helps but this video sounds way more fun than running sprints :)

You really should, I would say we spend $9 atleast on other things, each month. I know for a fact, I have saved atleast that much by cutting the Dr. Pepper out of my life, so its worth it. And whether I lose the weight I want to or not, I know its doing something to my body, because it burns... good burns. You know what else shocks me? how all the foods(bad foods) that we eat, and all the stuff we do to get to the position we are in, (overweight, unhappy) it never hurts to eat/drink/do those things that hurt us the most. What hurts/burns/is uncomfortable is taking the steps to make those choices right again. Its so easy to gain the weight, and so hard to lose it. THATS CRAZY! it controls us, we give up because it gets hard, and its so much easier to just keep doing the wrong things, than to do the right things! WE HAVE TO HAVE THE CONTROL OF OUR OWN SELVES...plain and simple. I have to keep reminding myself, as I walk/chase the kids around and tend after them, that the pain is good-it

You have inspired me! I'm going to check it out!

thanks for your encouragement! thats exactly what I am looking for! I know everyone is so busy anymore, and as a mother its hard to find that time for "me". I know stress is probably 100% the cause of my binging of the "bad stuff". But its time to quit making excuses or this "cycle" will never break! Ive got to figure out this balance that you mentioned, just not quite sure how!

I think it takes balance! We get discouraged when it seems like one more thing to add to our stress level. Is there a way to even things out? Other things you could cut out? 2 lbs a week is doable!
