And you look trim! Patsy, my friend and boot camp leader, just told us again today that losing weight is 80 percent what you eat and 20 percent exercise. She does have us do weights, but not ones we can barely lift.....sigh.....thanks....xo aliceAlice Garbarini Hurleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00200746626686412315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095391922604035629.post-88229707167645469442012-11-26T09:44:26.525-05:002012-11-26T09:44:26.525-05:00Alice, FWIW I have never been able to lose weight ...Alice, FWIW I have never been able to lose weight from exercise (in the last month I've done spinning, running, eliptical trainer, boot camp and kickboxing, all of which I generally enjoy). Exercise has a lot of terrific benefits, i just don't believe losing weight is one of them. The one exception is regular weight training. Heavy weights where you can barely make it to 12 reps. And several sets of each routine. struggerbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10131170275762222419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095391922604035629.post-55850120296631424672012-11-25T22:09:02.279-05:002012-11-25T22:09:02.279-05:00hey Nan, just this weekend I started doing that......hey Nan, just this weekend I started doing that....sometimes i don't want to take the time to be derailed w. yet one more commitment during the day...but i do think it helps. thanks Nan...aliceAlice Garbarini Hurleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00200746626686412315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095391922604035629.post-34678993151262345472012-11-25T20:47:55.293-05:002012-11-25T20:47:55.293-05:00I agree, great job!

It's such a huge commitment to keep logging, and I'm convinced that is the key. Do you ever log in and track what you've done so far in the middle of the day? I find it helpful to see what I've done so far, and what I've "got left". Sometimes I even change my dinner plans!<br /><br />Nan Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04610981935061412711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095391922604035629.post-44253196084122234102012-11-25T13:04:44.500-05:002012-11-25T13:04:44.500-05:00Thank you.

According to WW (my logging and tracking method), .5 to 1.5 a week is considered good. So, great job! Really. You are making changes and you know I have always been sooo impressed with your commitment to activity. Please consider me part of your online support group as you know how I struggle with all of this, too. Go, Alice! One pound at a time:) Love, LinLindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13304860194704479070noreply@blogger.com
