OT: 10 day countdown to your New Year Resolutions
I got a jump start this year and ordered something called "The Bean". It's this inflatible thing (get your mind out of the gutter) that you excercise on. More stable than a ball, and supports the back and the core (the core is our **not** rock hard abs).
the idea is that you use the shape of the "bean" to help you work the muscles without hurting your mid-life muscles or mid-life spinal column.
I watched the DVD tonight in order to educate myself on how to use this new excercise equipment. Frankly, I'm exhausted. I expect to fit into my size 4's tomorrow morning.
I'll watch it again tomorrow and by Saturday I think I'll be down at least 4 or 5 inches. Isn't technology wonderful???

LOL..we have all those goodies here - the Bowflex, the Gazelle, the Ball, the Treadmill..the walking tapes...problem is we also have a "malfunctioning" clothes dryer that keeps shrinking our clothes!!
My New Year's Resolution? - get a new dryer..

Linda - the dryer is OBVIOUSLY the culprit. Replace it and you'll find you can do the gym "garage sale" and get rid of all that stuff.
Damn dryers. It's all their fault.

Just saw something advertised yesterday. You stand on it and it supposedly "beats" you into shape with vibrations. You just have to watch how you use it. I can just see it now, "Not tonight honey, I'm all vibrated out."

Hey, TitleGal, if all you have to do is WATCH the DVD
Can I come over? Maybe for a double feature? (or a triple )

you know, I keep buying these tapes, "8 minute abs"," Pilates", "aerobics", "lose 30 lbs in 30 days", etc, etc, etc, but don't lose a pound.
Then someone tells me that I actually have to get off the couch and do the dang exercises! What's up with that? tee hee hee
