We own a Precor treadmill. I would not call it inexpensive by any means, but it can certainly take a run.

Treadmill
I have one that I use (not as often as I should) I think the key for me was finding the widest one possible. Mine was fairly inexpensive (as far as they go, I paid about $450) I need to get back on it ASAP
I'm actually trying to get kick started back into fitness for the new year. (Starting Monday-who can start this type of thing mid-week right?) I'm signed up for some more classes at my county for a kickboxing workout and a body scuplt workout.

OK, girl, I will be starting up with you. I had been doing so well and then the holidays...I am desparately trying to get re-motivated. So Monday it is!
Also, "TheDuckRocks" - keep up the good work and congratulations on your successes yesterday. "Successes" because every meal, snack, taste - was you making the better choice.
I sadly have been blowing off my food choices lately (she types as she sips on a Coke...)
I am glad you are all here and I am encouraged by everyone's fight for fitness!

Holidays
I know what you mean, I was doing so well in the Fall with diet, cutting back on and boot camp and then between Thanksgiving and Christmas it was a complete gluttonous mess! So starting Monday it's back on track (as she walks out the door to meet friends at Pizza Hut Buffet!)

We have a Fitline that we got a couple of years ago. I'd have to check my logs, but I think I have put better than 1250 miles on it, and DW has put 250 or so on it. If you do a google search for treadmill doctor, you can find a lot of helpful reviews - among them, a warning that Fitlines are horribly overpriced, but if you can get them for 50% of MSRP, they're not bad. And yes, we got ours on sale, so we weren't disappointed. For some reason, however, it has developed a permanent 2% incline, which makes running on it much harder.
If anyone has any questions about running, feel free to ask me, BTW.

I was doing well till we went to disney then I kind of fell off. I gained 8 of the 17 lbs I had lost back. I changed my weigh in date to a tuesday. It's biggest loser day & I'm hoping that will help keep me going. My first small goal is to lose 12 lbs. We also got an elliptical machine, wow I didn't expect it to be so much harder. I could go 30 mins easy on the treadmill. That Elliptical I could only do 5. I'm just going to add time each day. So here we go.

I have 2 tips that have helped me.
Finally, I have found a breakfast that satisfies me until lunch.
I cook 1 serving of regular (not instant) oatmeal in the microwave - it takes 4 minutes.
I put 5 or 6 frozen blueberries in a bowl, put the oatmeal on top and some ground cinnamon, then put a little soy milk.
The other tip is some seasonings that really add a lot of flavor to food. McCormick Grinders. They were on sale at the grocery a few months ago- half-price- so I tryed a few of them. The peppercorn medley, garlic pepper, and cinnamon grinder are the ones I have tryed.
I am having problems finding interesting things to eat for dinner. I have to take it with me 4 days a week and eat out of a cooler. There is a microwave available. I am really tired of salads and don't enjoy them as much in the winter.
Any good on-the-go dinner suggestions?

I think I need to join, haha. I put on a lot of weight last year during my third year of med school. Being in the hospital all the time is not really conducive to healthy food choices, and it's hard to get the energy to exercise when I finally do go home. I started making better food choices and exercising in September and have lost 42 pounds since then. I want to lose 15 to 20 more to be at my college weight.

I lost 28 pounds on Weight Watchers and kept it off for 10 months and then gained 5 pounds since Thanksgiving. I told my family that next year someone else was taking over the family Christmas baking so I don't have it in my house! Anyway, I am going back to counting my points. I bought my fruit, oatmeal, slim-fast, and other "healthy" foods and started my healthy diet again today. Wish me luck! I'd love to lose this 5 pounds plus another 5!

Gyms...
Well I'm joining a gym tonight, I always think of that Friends episode "I want to quit the gym" but it's only $25 a month for 12 months and it has an indoor pool...

I got P90X for Christmas. I have always been in fairly good shape (job requirement), but the realisation that I am now one of the "old guys" at work has made me realise I can't quite keep up with the "kids" at work. I intend to change that back and let them keep up with me!
I started about a week and a half ago. So far, so good. The best thing about the system is I don't need much in the way of special equipment. I can use either weights or resistance bands or both. A chin-up bar is invaluable. I don't have one yet, but the resistance bands have taken their place until I get one. My beloved wife hates it when I do chin-ups on the door frames. Too afraid I will rip them down. My mother used to hate that, too, when my brothers and I did it at home. Hmm. Must be a woman thing.
Maybe someday, in, say, March, I will once again look good in my Speedo!
Officially too many trips to list here!

I can't say enough about how much I love WW. I've done Atkins, Slim-fast, etc. but WW just works for me. I lost 28 pounds and had maintained it for 10 months and then the holdiays came. I put on a few pounds but in just 3 weeks I've lost 7 pounds. I'm trying to lose a few more pounds than I did 10 months ago and I think I'll be able to do it. I think the biggest plus for me is that on WW I get to eat real food - I don't have to buy pre-packaged food that generally tastes like cardboard. I know it works for some people but I just can't see myself doing that.
I'd like to wish everyone the best of luck with your weight loss goals and just remember if you fall off the wagon it's NOT the end of the world. Just get back on track a.s.a.p.
Good luck everyone!!!
