I hate boring Hi! I'm new! titles ^

I'm Shara and I need to get myself in shape. I thought getting to know some people in a community like this would be great motivation. It's hard to tell a friend that you didn't actually make it to the gym ;)

I am motivated!!! lol
 
Hey saje, welcome abroad :)
 
welcome

i am also new, so its good to see another newbie :) fitness is addicitve once you get in a groove. I work at a fitness center, so i see all kinds of women. you really just need to find your own groove and make fitness a way of life for you. and definitely make it FUN!
 
hey newf

are you a newfie or do you have a newfie? I have a newfie mutt and I love him. I think they are my favourite breed now.

So true. I really need to do that. I used to work out on farms and that kept me fit. Not anymore! :(

My friend and I are going to be going to a gym together starting jan. 1. I plan on going with or without her though. (I hope she's as motivated!)
 
I'm new as well and I'm interested in this topic. I don't know if this is the place for this, but I'm interested by what you mean when you say "fit".
Most "Fitness Centers" will tell you that you will get more fit coming in, but they fail to define the term.

It takes more than just walking through the door to get fit. Most people (including me) need guidance, education, support and a plan........from a professional.

As for the Newfie thing............I have 2!!! Here's my favorite Newfie boy...........Mr. Smooches!

Fit1,
Very cute pooch. My question still stands though. Maybe I should rephrase it. What is your definition of Fit?

Smooch still holds the record as the largest dog checked into the downtown Portland Marriot! He is too cute...........thanks.

For me being fit is maintaining a healthy weight for my height. Being cardiovascularly healthy (good VO2 max) and having good muscle tone.

I just completed my first triathlon!! Thats what being fit means to me!
