One thing I'm trying to do as of late is to think of changing my lifestyle; just overall, trying to be more active. One thing that has helped me is Fitlinxx. Have you heard of this??? It's a wonderful feature that my gym offers. I log onto individual weight and cardio machines and it keeps track of everything for me. I can also log in online at home and track my progress. One very cool feature is adding fitness done outside of the gym such as yardwork, hiking, etc. This is a great motivator! It sounds so silly, but it's just neat to see a record of all my workouts. It also gives you points for the length of time/amount of effort of each activity. You work your way up like you would if you were getting belts in karate! It's really a simple thing, but it really seems to help me. I burned 1500 calories one day just doing yard work! It's neat to think of something that would usually be a burden, like housework or yard work, as something fun that is actually helping me to lose weight!
