At the beginning of the summer, I promised myself a new pair of shoes if I made it to the gym for 21 days straight. I did it, got my shoes, and am hooked on the gym. Despite working full time and having two kids (ages 6 &3), I get to the gym 6 days a week...sometimes even 7. So make a deal with yourself and get going! .-= Carolyn Swaney´s last blog ..Threadless Tshirt Giveaway at jaypeeonline.net =-.

A great tip is how to keep motivated to exercise during the winter when it is so cold outside and you just want to snuggle on the couch under a warm blanket instead.

Find something you love doing and then make it part of your life. I take karate classes with my kids, go for family hikes, walk/run with my hubby, and lift weights while my kids play nearby. If I relied on a gym membership I would never get a workout in.

Get a dog! Then walk or run him. They stare at you with those puppy eyes and you have no choice but to take them for a walk. Guilt works.

In order to loose weight, there are several factors that come into play:
1. Drink LOTS of water.
2. Watch your heart rate when doing cardio – have you heard of zones? Here is an article. http://www.brianmac.co.uk/hrm1.htm
It is so important to train in different zones – watch your heart rate! Don’t waste your time when you are working out.
3. Include weights!!!! Once i started to include weights 3x a week I began to see a difference in my body.
4. Spice up your work outs to keep it interesting. If I don’t feel like running, biking, swimming, etc. I will jump around and dance while watching Ellen or listening to fun music. My heart rate gets higher doing this than running – And I am having fun!
5. Eat protein after every work out.
6. Be confident in yourself and your workouts will be more than just a miserable task.

Hi there,

I recently lost about 60 pounds and throughout that, came up with many tips. However, the BEST thing I ever did was to go for a walk (on top of any other daily workout) for at least ten minutes AFTER dinner. Whether it’s a short stroll, or a 10-minute speed walk, that after-dinner exercise made a huge difference in my post-meal energy level. It made me less likely to sit right down on the couch and flip on the TV. Instead, I was finding myself cleaning after that walk, playing with the dog, or wanting to play a board game or something. Plus, it stopped the calories I took in for dinner to just sit there.

Hope that helps someone:)
