Hey everyone, thanks for having me. I am excited that I found this place and hope it is very active. It seems wonderful so far. Well i am 5'5 162lbs and my goal is 140lbs. I have picked up some weight since high school and am also still carrying around about 10lbs of pregnancy weight. I plan to eat a bit healthier or smaller portions and I am hitting the gym everyday with 60 minutes of cardio and then doing some weights for toning. I don't really care about toning though, I care more about burning fat. I have been doing this for 7 days now. I was eating very good at first but Thanksgiving ruined it lol. Welp, that is all. Just trying to lose some weight. I wonder how long it will take. . . Oh one question. WHEN do I know that I am doing enough cardio? I do 20 minutes on each the stairmaster, the ellpiticial, and then walk/jog on the treadmill. I was EXHAUSTED the first three or four days but now I exercise at 6am and have enough energy to go back again . . . although I have yet to actually go twice in one day. I am thinking of picking up a spinning class or something for the evenings. Any feed back would be greatly appreciated.
