A step is a great idea — I love fitness DVDs, but haven’t tried a step workout yet. Let me know how it goes, FitRosie!

I like to walk at home with Leslie Sansone, time just zips by & it makes me feel great!
I just got a step to try & a couple of DVDs to go with it & I think that will make a challenging change.
Getting some new gear like trainers or a tea shirt with go faster stripes or what ever pleases me also gets me in the mood to try them.

I totally agree! I do the 10 Minute Solutions DVDs at home — I have about 7 of them, and it’s way, way better than going to the gym. Those DVDs are all the weight loss motivation I need.

Hi Laurie, It’s well worth getting the right equipment to work out at home. I joined the gym about a year ago, and found I didn’t really get there very often. Now that I’ve got equipment at home, I’m working out on a much more regular basis, it is easier if you’ve got the stuff at home.

Hi Anita,

Thanks for your tip about this diet! I’m not a fan of any type of weight loss regime or diet, but it’s good to know that there are some diets that work for some people. And, it’s good to hear that publishers are walking their talk

As the publisher of the number one bestselling CRAIG CLAIBORNE GOURMET DIET, I have tried both Glickman’s and Claiborne’s regimes, and Glickman’s works far better.

I lost 20 lbs in 10 days, and made a major alteration to my permanent diet that keeps the weight off. The diet is simple, sound, easy to master and execute and it works.

Most diets are about as complicated as IRS instructions for your tax return and one can quickly find an excuse for giving up.

Following up the diet with a sigmoidoscopy to take advantage of the newly cleared intestinal tract should be the ultimate way to detect and prevent colon and intestinal cancers.

Any book this short that is this clear and this good should be in everyone’s library.

Hi Kari,

No, I didn’t know Martha Beck is speaking in Calgary! Very cool. I lived there for a year, before I moved here to Bowen Island, BC.

Do you have tickets to see Beck? I hope you blog about it!

Sandra,

No worries about ranting — that’s what Jane is here for!

I love this bit about exercising:

“I’m so tired of exercising,” said comedienne Jann Karam. “I think 5,000 sit-ups should be pretty much permanent. You should be at home, you’re on your last and final jumping jack, and you get that phone call: ‘Congratulations! You have completed the exercise portion of your life. Welcome to the incessant eating section.’ ”

Wouldn’t that be something — to be done with exercise forever??

I just wrote an article for Health magazine, about keeping your brain healthy until you’re really, really old (it’ll be in the Sept 2009 issue, if all goes as planned). A brain expert from Princeton said that exercise is the number one way to keep your brain strong and prevent diseases such as Alzheimer’s…because the more oxygen you get flowing throughout your body, the healthier you are.

I don’t know about you, but keeping my brain healthy is vital. In fact, I wanted to go off on a huge eating binge yesterday (I’m bad for emotional eating) — and you know what stopped me? The fact that it’s bad for my brain. I’ve written articles on how bad excess sugar and fat is for our bodies, and I know what happens when I binge…and it ain’t pretty.

For you, Sandra — and all women struggling with weight loss motivation — I think finding your trigger is the key to exercising regularly! It’s different for every woman: some like to sweat, others want to look gorgeous, and still others just want to have healthy brains.

What’s your trigger? What would keep you going back for more? (It might help to read my 10 Health Benefits of Exercise on Quips and Tips for Achieving Your Goals http://theadventurouswriter.com/blog/quipstipsachievinggoals/health-wellness/fitness-goals-health-benefits-exercise/ )

Also — another key to weight loss motivation is finding activities that you LIKE doing. If you have to force yourself to work out, then you won’t do it for long.

Did the guilt trip work yesterday?

Laurie
