For those of you who are just chiming in, Skip and I are participating in ‘The Biggest Loser’ Contest, sponsored by the YMCA of Greensboro. It’s based on the TV Show.
We went the week before last and started our first personal training session. Let me tell you, it is HARD! I have been working out since I was pregnant. With that being said, my trainer Wendy took me to a whole different level. Before I would swim a lot, jog on the treadmill, and do upper body weights. She put me on the elliptical machine, which I hated before, but now I love it! I can double the amount of calories lost in way less time. Every week I have been trying to work out at least 3 days, cardio, upper body, and mid section. Let me tell you, women who have had a baby or maybe a couple…it is HARD to get that belly off. How are all these celebrities looking so tight and lean 2 months after delivering? How is this possible? Plastic surgery? Around the clock trainers and chefs? Can I sign up for that? No, just kidding, I would rather do it the old school way, no needles involved. That’s just creepy!
So, wish us luck and if you ANY suggestions on how to get the weight off in a HEALTHY way without starving myself, diet pills…you know where I’m going. Any work out routines you suggest, or any cool recipes that are good for ya! Tell me your story. You can respond to this post or email me at Carmen@987simon.com As always Make it a GOOD One!

I know what you are talking about!! My daughter will be 5 in April. My husband bought me an elliptical for Christmas 4 years ago, didn't use it all that much. So in May I joined a gym, I was very tired of everyone asking me if I was pregnant. So as of today, I have lost 18 lbs. And very happy, but I have busted my tail in getting it off!! Good luck to you with your goals. I also stopped eating red meat and pork, so that has contributed to it as well. Again, good luck!!! Just stick to it....
