HIYA, Im Jaime. Im obviously new. Ive wanted to lose weight for along time now but, I dunno its hard. Im a really weak person when it comes to sweets (chocolate is a big one) and convenience foods (Prepackaged, or fast foods), I have little will power in fighting again "snacking" too, tv snacking, late night snacking... I have trouble "remembering" to eat if that makes sense, I will get up, forget to eat breakfast, get ready do what I have planned for that day, and either forget to eat lunch, or dont have the time or as Ive said, I fall for the "convenience foods" I stop and eat fast food on the run. Then by the time dinnertime has rolled around, Im starving while cooking dinner so I eat on anything, handful of this handful or that while I wait to eat dinner then I eat dinner, and tend to want dessert, eat that (usually over eat on desserts) then I sometimes eat a second portion of dinner a few hours later if there is any, maybe more dessert, basically snack the rest of the evening, so I see that I eat the most when Im the least active, and eating nothing when I am the most active. Hard cycle to break with kids, I was getting better with my first daughter but now that I have a baby under 1, Im an entirely new mess. I dunno where to begin, I dont exercise at all, I mean to but I never feel I have the energy or the opportunity to, cant really go to a gym with children, most gyms anyways. Plus its hard doing it alone, my husband has gainned quite abit (he just got out tof the army last August) but he makes it worse, he wont change eatting habits and brings stuff in the house I want but shouldnt eat. Plus no one to exercise with sucks. I dunno what isa basic "enty level" exercise routine anyways, I have tried with alil bit of pilates but, these girls are already skinney... I cant do half of the things its trying to get me to do. Ive thought walking wouold be my best best, brisk walking that is. Low impact till I lose some weight to do other things, plus any exercise is better than none, right?... Im just feeling really alone, and Ive only been married alil over a year, Im only 23 I feel like Im wasting my youth, being well... fat. Arent your 20s supposed to be where you look back and say yea I was young and beautiful, but Ill look back and say wow... I was so fat. Im not feeling beautiful for my husband though he says he loves me for me, but who wants to be with a fat girl forever. I feel our marriage is off to a horrible start because I am so fat. Not to mention, my daughter is 4 she tells me Im fat, not in a mean way but in a "truthful" way. I dont want kids to tell her that her mommy is fat. Either way Im ready to make some life altering choices, with perhaos all encouragement from people who truly understand what it feels like to be... fat.
 
I responded to your other post already, but once again...WELCOME!!!
 
yes, welcome!

I also have 2 daughters, so I know how you feel. The big moment for me, was when I realized I was the biggest mom in the class.

You can do this, jus take things one day at a time.

let me know if you have any questions!
 
And again BEP thanx!, NewBride I do have a question: Do you have and advice on what exercises I could be doing... in my apt (not too much jumping around) I know its not going to be cake, but other routines I have tried its so discouraging since Its so difficult for me... I want to do some brisking cant get any easier than that, but on days where ists too hard to get out of the house with my kids (ie weather, sickness etc) I still wanna be able to exercise. Thanx
 
PS, I have madea ticker... but Im not sure what code to use on here I tried them all and it only created a link... not a picture on here... thanks
 
use the BBC code for tickers....as far as excersize video's thats a tough call. I think most are fairly high impact (as far as the apt is concerned) except for pilates or yoga.

pilates are great for building muscle, and cardio tapes are good for burning the cals!
 
Yea, I need to bulid muscle I am seriously a weakling, plus you need muscle to burn fat right? But I need to burn cals, you gotta burn more cals than you eat in a day in order to loose weight... So i think I should do alil, of both maybe... pilates was pretty hard for me, since I am so weak, the buliding of "the core" was like, ahhhh it hurts, I cant hold it... lol But I guess its gonna be like that... beauty if pain, isnt that what they say... that arent kidding...
