[font=Geneva][color=purple]Hi everyone. I'm a newbie here. My name is Trisha, I just turned 24, and I am trying to get motivated enough to stick with a diet and esercise plan to lose the 50 lbs I gained over the holidays. I keept trying to get myself to stop eating so much from Thanksgiving to Christmas but that is when everyone hits me up to try all their new foods and its so hard to turn down all that fudge.
I'm cutting back on the soda pop as I truly am addicted to caffeine. It's not as bad as when I was in high school but I still get the head aches when I don't drink as much caffeine. I've been subsituting green tea for some pop and just have ta get my self to cut back the rest. Its pretty bad when you go thru a 24 pack in less than a week.
Another problem area I have is grabbing the sneakers bar when ever I go to Wal-Mart. I love em and have a hard time saying no to them. They are one of my biggest weaknessess!
I've been exercising more like crosover crunches, knee drops (don't know the real name of it), and very little yoga. I try to walk but its pretty cold out right now and with my sons asthma and my daughter having trouble with bronchitis I can't take them with me as much as when its nice and warm outside. I've tried walking up and down the stairs but I can't stay motivated enough to do it past 5 mins and I know that that isn't enough.
Any suggestions would be wonderful.
Thanks!
