I thought i'd share this and i'd love to hear from you what you really like to use and stick with.
Anyhow heres my story, i turned 38 about a month ago and a few weeks before that i'd reached a point where i was really tired of feeling like crap all the time and decided it was time to do something so seeing how my birthday was coming up and we're i live it's ungodly hot so my husband suggested that i get a treadmill for my birthday. I had wanted one for a long time but really didn't want to spend the money considering 10 years ago i bought a exercise bike and only stuck with it for a week but i figured that walking is something i like to do anyhow so why not? OK so i get it home at the end of June and start using it and watching the food intake, not crazy watching but cutting back some and within the first week i swear to god i could feel a difference. I don't weigh myself, i find it that if i do i tend to let the number dictate my self esteem for the day so i now just go by my clothes and i measure myself about every 2 weeks or so. It's been almost 6 weeks now and about 2 weeks ago i started a modified version of the South Beach diet and i'm actually feeling pretty good, my energy level is up and i'm sleeping much better never-mind how much the heartburn has improved. I took my measurements today and i've lost 4 inches off my hips, 3 off my waist and an inch off my arms. I have a long way to go still but buying that treadmill was probably one of the best investments i've made for myself. Thanks for listening and i love this forum, it really, really helps.:)
