Buy yourself some new gym clothes and cute sneakers. Then you'll want to wear them so you'll go to the gym. Always works for me. \n\nAlso look into classes that are offered. Sometimes there are some cool ones. NYSC has some interesting cardio dance classes.

I did it a few years back, super tiring doing it 5 days a week, i think if your going to do it you should have a good strength base and then try doing it 3 days a week in my opinion.

Yes, I don't get enough exercise. I'm 5'4" and I weigh 155 pounds. I do have 3 kids though, a husband, and a big house to take care of , so I don't have enough me time. I wish I could join a health club, go to the tanning bed, and to salon. (sigh)

if you are already exercising - chnge up your routine and intensify your workouts. Try a stricter diet.

That's a bit odd if you didn't gain one bit of stamina. Maybe you aren't eating right or maybe you need to work out a bit to make your muscles stronger for running. Sometimes, jogging each day a certain distance, and then increasing that distance can help you out.

You may have started with too strenuous a routine. A lot of people do it. Seems OK at the time, but you regret it later. It's important to know your limits before starting a workout regimen. You want to go with something you know you'll be able to keep up. Try a lighter workout schedule when you're feeling better. Hope that helps.

Sign up for a 5k run every 2 weeks.  In my area theres one being held about every other day for some cause.  I use http://www.races2run.com  If you sign up and go and keep doing it you will be motivated to run more and more.  6 months ago I ran my first 5k or I should say Walk/Ran/Walked. LOL  Now I'm running 10 miles and lost 40 pounds.  Just keep filling your calander with these type of events.\n\nGood luck.

Try using the stairs and the bicycle instead of the elevator or escalator and  the car.\nEat more proteins and complex carbohydrates.\nDrink juice or water instead of soda.\nYou could exercise also.\nI like to exercise at a gym because the other people there inspire me.

Try yoga at first to limber up and then move on to include step exercises.  Go for a brisk walk too after a few weeks of building your stamina.  If you have not been active in a while and if you are over weight - do things slowly so you don't burden your heart with undue stress.\n\nModify your diet!  i cut out refined sugar in my coffee....4 cups with 2 teaspoons a day was a lot and now a month later I am alittle nicer to be around says my family.  No soda!\n\nEngage a friend to walk with you.  My Mom did this with me and we looked for decorating ideas in the various windows\n\nGood luck to you - asking is the first step - I bet you are on your way!

You should talk to your doctor to be cleared to do strenuous exercises. He may have you start slow, and work up to something more strenuous. You definately don't want to cause yourself to have a heart attack or something.

None.  Try increasing your activity level.

Don't push yourself too hard, just start walking or even jogging everyday. Then go from there. Create a schedule to get some exercise at least 3 times a week, and follow it religiously.

No real help for this weekend. Step up your program.  Run up stairs for 15 minutes to tone and shape your legs and thighs.  Power walk for 1 hour a day three days per week.  Wear leg weights to increase the benefits.  Crunch daily.  Race your bike for 10 minutes and ride rapidly for 10 minutes.  Alternate like that for 1 hour four days per week.  Drop all added sugars.  Drink 8-10 glasses of water every day.  No sugary drinks.  Try yogurt as your breakfast five days per week.  Do not eat anything more than carrots or apple slices after 6 pm and nothing at all after 8 pm.  You will be ready and fit by August.

No it's not the end of your workouts.  You need to take a break every now and again.  Just make sure you are well rested before you get back into the full swing of things.  Or you may choose to do something less strenuous like go for a walk or a bike ride, until you are feeling yourself again.  Finally drink lots of water.  When you've been out drinking you get dehydrated.  So it's good to top up with fluids again and head back into your regime.

Get the bike. If you enjoyed it before why cant you enjoy it again? There are plenty of bikes able to handle a heavier person, dont use your weight as an excuse use bikeriding as an opportunity to get back outdoors and enjoy yourself. You mention that you go to the gym and sometimes that can bore you or you can make excuses to quit going so take this opportunity to get exercise and stick with the gym as long as you can. It is great that your fiance is a willing participant, it seems like a great do together activity. So to make a long story short GET THE BIKE, it will be good for your mnid soul and health! Good luck and Good riding!
