Glad to have your joining in.<br /><br />The key for me and exercise has been finding something I like. If it is drudgery to get off the couch, then find something that is fun. I just love dancing. I also need variety so I add to my DVD collection whenever I can.<br /><br />This is a great group for support, help and the occasional & requested butt kicking. Lol. Glad to have you here and I look forward to getting to know you better.Andrea Krusehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14605909254317987384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1005544466971487151.post-80802338280590608252011-01-31T12:40:21.122-05:002011-01-31T12:40:21.122-05:00Great to have you on board.

(And yes by ...Katie I am so proud to see this post! (And yes by the way, my post was talking about you.) <br /><br />I think you are doing great with your baby steps, and please don't feel the need to rush them. Do your workout video once a week, for two, three, or even five weeks. It will get to the point where you'll <i>want</i> to add another day because you enjoy working out. Gradually, maybe even without even realizing it, you will be popping that video in several times a week.<br /><br />Before starting my journey as a Mamavation Mom I absolutely <b>hated</b> exercise. I could eat as healthy as I wanted, but without exercising I wasn't going to lose any weight. Now I wouldn't say I <i>love</i> to exercise (yet anyway) but my attitude towards it has definitely changed. I don't feel like I'm forcing myself to do things to lose weight. Instead I feel motivated to do things because it will make my life better in the long run.<br /><br />I think you have the right attitude to help you be successful. You're super positive and you're not just doing this to lose a couple of pounds. I know you're going to do so well!Angela @ Nine More Monthshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15620803040683639237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1005544466971487151.post-24985537239184966202011-01-31T00:07:56.289-05:002011-01-31T00:07:56.289-05:00WooHoo for taking such a big step!
