May I ask what body pump is. sounds interesting. 

Monday- I did an open water swim in Lake Ontario. The waves were crazy. I drank so much water it was gross

Thursday 50 minute run

Friday 40 minute strength and fitness

I forgot that I'm starting lifting weights this coming Saturday, last week I posted that I was starting that week.  But I'm starting this week.  The plan was to give myself a week to get adjusted to running and school before adding in lifting.  

Monday - nothing planned, will be weight day in the future

Tuesday - running, stretching

Wednesday - pilates class

Thursday - running, stretching

Friday - piyo class, tai chi class, pilates class

Saturday - lifting

Sunday - running, stretching

 

Running last week went good.  I've restarted a 5k training plan and my shoulder hasn't given me any grief.  Yay!

Hi Scaredofbeingdifferent,

If you want to lose weight easily, iHCG injection is a good option.

HCG stands for Human Choriogonadotropin, the hormone produced by pregnant women in the early stages of pregnancy. Research suggests a small, daily HCG Injection (approx. 125 IU to 200 IU) may result in a weight loss of 1 to 2 lbs per day, and often more. This program must be accompanied by the VLCD (very low calorie diet, of apprx. 500 calories/day).

Visit www.ihcginjections.com if you want to know more.

Cheers!

Just seeing the progress that everyone here has accomplished has made me so joyous. I'm so happy to know that at some point in you guys lives that you've felt the same way as me.

 

I think I'm learning that I don't have to be an Olympian. I just need to set my own pace. I'm doing it. 

 

So thanks again, I really appreciate it.

Thank you for that idea. Never would have thought of the pool! It's been walking and chair exercises for the week so far.

 

I am truly gracious for all the responses that I've gotten. Thanks alot you guys!

Thank you so much for the motivation! I went to get the resistance bands and this week has been non-stop chair exercises. I've been super conscience of walking, so I started walking in my back yard for 20 mins each morning and evening!

First of all, congratulations on your decision. 

Since you want to start working out and you are overweight, I suggest walking around your neighborhood as a first exercise. It will get your heart going and also you will burn calories. 

What you can do also is, you can take 2 bottles and fill them with water (pretend they are dumbbells) and start working some exercises that you find on the internet using those so called dumbbells. It's a great start and you will get your motivation in no time.
