You can choose Belly, butt or thighs or total body.<br /><br />Something my sister does that I am going to start is "writing" the alphabet with her legs while lying on her back. She lifts her legs and forms the ABC's in the air with her feet. This tones the belly, butt and thighs. I can only get to G or H before I get really shaky...my goal is to be able to do them all before I get shaky. :)JRobertshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06820651410148056314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3498282969327775025.post-48339749913671328092009-12-06T15:49:35.530-08:002009-12-06T15:49:35.530-08:00Go Jocelyn!

I really have zero flexibility. If I get the name of it, I can see if the Library has is and just get it from them and you could keep it at your house and do it to!<br /><br />Alison, I really appreciate the encouragement because I have SEEN you be successful, and it is nice to know someone who has been there and been successful at it!<br /><br />Krystal, I think you are so kind and one day, we will sit next to each other and each of us cross our legs! THAT will be cool!<br /><br />I also really appreciate how much encouragement you have all given me, diffrent things you do to work out and putting your faith in me. This is something I have to do, and glad that I am NOT alone. Please let me know if I can do anything for YOU as well. I think if we can all kee up with the positive encouragement we can help alot of people become successful. It is so easy to live a life of unhappiness and being overweight, but it is more IMPORTANT that we help others to be healthy. <br /><br />THANK-YOU ALL!Jocelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18294052996479688932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3498282969327775025.post-17504002623139550022009-12-04T19:22:50.090-08:002009-12-04T19:22:50.090-08:00Joc, I feel EXACTLY like you..except I can't c...Joc, I feel EXACTLY like you..except I can't cross my legs, and u can (jealous!) Honestly, when I look at you I don't see ur weight. I see an individual who helped me feel more comfortable in 1st ward. And the whole gym thing- i SO get it. I hate going to gyms and I am scared to go to a gym for the same reason as you. So, I have a Gazelle machine and use it for 35 mins every day(adding time on it every month of course) I make it fun by listening to music I love really loud. It pumps me up and helps me do it everyday. It's been 3 weeks and I'm already starting to notice positive changes, maybe not so much with my weight, but mentally and emotionally. Good lukc with it and if you ever need to talk u know where u can reach me!!Krystal G https://www.blogger.com/profile/17480603771667683978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3498282969327775025.post-72105931850454535802009-12-04T13:53:04.833-08:002009-12-04T13:53:04.833-08:00You can do it.

I know what it's like to be overweight and to lose weight and the whole journey of it. It's tough, but you have to believe you can do it. All the work is worth it. Remember, everything good in life takes work to get.Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14967206872093980800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3498282969327775025.post-20185320154830944332009-12-04T06:59:58.478-08:002009-12-04T06:59:58.478-08:00I have an excellent DVD (I need to do it more, bec...I have an excellent DVD (I need to do it more, because like you, I had a wake up call 2 days ago) it is pilates in 10 min segments. If you are interested I can let you know the deets.<br /><br />Also, Weight watchers. They are amazing! They teach you how to portion control. If you don't have time to go to them there is an online version. It is great to have and you DO loose weight. It is also one of the only diets that Dr's will reccomend as they teach you how to eat, not put you on a pill.<br /><br />I am totally with you and feel that pain. It is devistating to realize that you are bigger than you should be. (even if you are 6 feet tall and can hide it better than when you are 5 feet!) :)<br /><br />I wish you luck in your goals...they are much similar to mine!JRobertshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06820651410148056314noreply@blogger.com
