Thats easy, have a lot of sex and instead of him doing any work, "squat" over him and use your legs to do the work, im serious, this works well.

Announcing the opening of ExLimey's Gym.

First month's membership is free, after that we'll have to negotiate a price because I'm not rich and can't afford too much!!
 
Oh in case you're all wondering....I'm not sitting here with bad BO, I can actually bathe now...I just can't use soap, I have to use moisturing body wash and moisturize moisturize moisturize.....In fact I shower everyday......I only wish I could try a sex workout everyday......It's the only I think I'd stick to it.....But does this mean I have to quit using whip cream in bed and start using something healthy like tofu? EEEEEEEEEEW

Well I dont know when school starts, but I dont suggest losing 30 pounds before school, even if you have 2 months. 15 pounds a month is a little much. I only lost about 10 pounds a month at most and I still had to use weights to tone up muscle and skin.

Trust me I know.....You're only supposed to lose 2lbs a week max to lose weight healthily....I was planning on doing that over 4 months...My entire "vacation" from school...It's too late now...but I'd be happy with 20lbs......Heck, 10lbs would make me jump for joy
 
Well I didn't lose 30lbs this evening so no nude pictures of me for my avatar now that I've finally reached 100 posts.......Instead the world's cutest dog.....
 
Thank you IA....it's my dog........Like you haven't guessed that already? The only man who's never hurt me.
 
I have actually been pretty successful with Weight Watchers. I am only in the online program (no meetings) but I lost about 18 pounds in six or seven weeks. My weight gain was very sudden due to medical reasons so it took me a while to realize I needed to change, but WW has been great for me. It does cost money, but it's worth it to me. I can't wait to fit back into all my sexy clothes again!

I've lost 35 pounds on weight watchers. The secret? There really isn't one.

Eat more fruit and veggies. Watch portion sizes...people generally eat WAY more food than what their bodies need and get out and MOVE, MOVE, MOVE, MOVE!!!
I agree that Weight Watchers is very effective, but you have to be extremely commited to lose the weight. It's not that difficult if you follow their regimen, and you aren't really restricted from eating certain foods.

Everything in moderation.
 
Needssome,
I have battled the bulge all my life. Feeling attractive and liking yourself are a major key to losing weight. At 36, I finally got it into my head that I'm attractive. After so many years of not feeling good enough, I'm seeing that I'm kind of cute! What a revelation. I started practicing yoga, which has been very rewarding. That helps me settle my mind, and get to know myself a little more. Then I started to work out. I go to the gym and have been doing mostly weights for the past 3 months. Now I'm going to add some more cardio/fat burning, such as walking on the treadmill or riding the bike. Finally, I will make gradual adjustments to my food intake. Looking back, I think I've been doing that all along, since starting to work out. It just happened...I stopped eating dessert all the time. But here is the MAIN point: This all has to be gradual. You can't just dive in, lose 10 lbs., and then think it's all going to continue that way. It must be a lifestyle change to work.

I've done Weight Watchers, and it's probably the healthiest, most realistic weightloss program out there. I wish you luck, Needs.

Take care...

Losing weight is a disciplin, if you really want to lose 30 pounds start with a small goal,say 5 pounds in the next 2 weeks. exercise and watch what you eat, it does indeed work. once you see that you've dropped 5 pounds that motivates you to the next level. :)
 
Losing weight? Just eat less. I tried sit-ups and push-ups when I wanted to lose an inch on my waist, but I ended up gaining one instead cuz of building muscle under the layer of fat, so I gave up. Went to visit my parents in HK and had a few weeks of chinese meals (less meat, no fast foods, more seafood), walked instead of driving, and lost 2 inches (yay!).
 
Thanks for all the encouragement everybody. I'm going to try and take a lot of it into consideration....I'm very good at convincing myself I can't do something....I never seem to be able to convince myself I can...I can come up with a million reasons why I don't feel like exercising and why it would be better if I didn't. All these smog days are making it reallllllly easy to just say I shouldn't exercise because I'll have trouble breathing...Fortunately since I first posted this last night I've managed to do the ah "sex" workout 3 times...Hopefully that will help. So again, thanks everybody and Happy Canada Day to all the Canadians....

Although it won't help your cardiovascular fitness as much, lifting weights to increase your lean muscle mass will make you burn more calories even at rest.

If you're lifting weights to burn fat, do lots and lots of reps with low weight. Otherwise, you'll probably be building muscle, but keeping the layer of fat.
 
This is a little off topic...but does anybody do Pilates regularly? I've heard (from reputable sources of course) that some people can actually "grow" up to 2 inches doing it regularly because their muscles lengthen....Anybody know if it's true?
 
Oh, FWIW - I don't exercise hardly at all. My weight loss has mostly been due to managing my food intake. I have always been considered "sedentary" (aka lazy!) and probably always will be.

side note, unsolicited advice:

If coloring your hair would make you feel better about yourself...then do it NOW! Don't wait to lose weight to make changes that make you feel better.

This is excellent advice. I second it. You can always re-dye it by the end of summer, but treating yourself NOW will give you a good psychological edge.
 
Okay....well I'm screwed. I'm lazy and I'm a sugar addict......Asi es la vida....

I love Pilates-- although I don't do it regularly. I don't think I grew when I was doing it 4 times a week, but i did feel strong, sexy and buff. It feels great, plus the DVD I've got has a really cute lady in it. It's the beginning DVD from the livingarts series. The lady's name is Ana Caban. I recommend that one highly. It's a fun workout, plus there's the cuteness factor....

Well I try to do Pilates a couple of times a week but I haven't really done it regularly that's why I was wondering......I love it and Yoga because I love the stretching factor....I do one from the Method and I love the way it includes classical Ballet....It's so much fun!
 
The guys at Big Motherfucker magazine (hosted at www.avantlabs.com) say that you can't actually lengthen your muscles, with pilates or anything else. They're usually pretty straight shooters.
 
Who knows if it's true.....I know that when I do Pilates regularly I stand up straighter and taller so maybe it just seems like you're taller.....I think I read it in some health magazine though....That's why I'm curious to know if anybody's experienced it since it seems kind of unlikely......
