I'm not very happy with my body right now and am looking for a definite change. I'd like to lose a few pounds here and there. I'm going vegetarian with my dad and my parents are going on Weight Watchers, so I'll probably indirectly be a part of that. So I have the diet down, but I need to excercise more. I own a treadmill but I find it SO boring to run on, even while watching TV. I'd much prefer running outside but I'm embarassed to... I'm a good runner but I'm always paranoid I'll run into someone I know and they'll be like, "Good idea, you definitely need to work out." or something like that. Anybody have any solutions to my dilemma?

I'm like that, too. Especially in PE with this guy who makes fun of me. I try to ignore it, and know I should brush it off, but sometime it just gets me so mad I just stand or sit there and do nothing.
 I stick to using the elliptical I have at home. If you find it boring using the treadmill at home, try doing other exercises or something like that. I don't see how it could be boring if you're watching some show you like or something of that nature..

If you really want to get in shape then what others think shouldn't matter. Besides oncce you achieve what you want then others will be impressed and most importantly you will as well. |
