Hi Natalie,
I was reading your post for exercise. I am 4 years out and haven't been excersing like I should so I now have turned to flab. Are there any exercises to would recomment to really tighten and tone. Unfortunately, I don't swim.

When I first started out in my journey, I did not join a gym. I walked a lot and I swam a lot . Swimming is the best exercise for your legs. So if you can find a gym that has an indoor pool, I would highly suggest taking advantage of it .
Also, there are a ton of exercises you can do right in your own living room that will tighten your legs and butt .
I can send you some ideas if you like . However ... like I said ... when I got started in my journey , I weighed 359 pounds... I got in that pool almost daily or every other day and I water walked.
I lost 100 pounds in 90 days . Now I am not saying that everyone should be at that rate , I just had a metabolism that was put into high gear by doing my protein and water religiously ,
Let me know if I can help you in any way .

Daily Inspiration for February 13, 2011
Appreciate imperfection.
Some of the most precious gems in the world have flaws that do not diminish their worth. When a diamond is a deep yellow or brown, it is considered more valuable. So, what you might assume is a serious flaw is really a great strength.
Do you judge yourself by impossible standards? Do you berate yourself for lack of perfection? Your flaws make you unique and precious. Your sensitivity means you are compassionate. Not looking perfect makes you approachable. Surviving pain brings others hope. You are not a worthless rock; you are a precious gem.
Action for the day: Think of three people you admire. In your journal, describe their flaws. How do their flaws make them unique and precious? What flaws might people appreciate in you?
