i'm in houston, tx. we have a lot of people that need help. we're not a big outdoor exercise city. we have a lot of gyms and i love teaching and interacting with the members.
mamacurl3 what are your fitness goals? i have a book at home on maternity and post maternity fitness that i can reference but you should be okay to do cardio and strength training which will get you toned. pilates is great. there's a book out called "lose your mummy tummy" one of my members actually showed it to me. you can check it out on amazon. good ideas

I'm having problem getting re-motivated because whenever you take a week off, it's such a set-back physically. It's a mind-set thing, I know but I have GOT to get my motivation back!
What do people who do this for a living do when they lose their motivation?
You can say what you want about the South, but you never hear of anyone retiring and moving North.
well for me as a group exercise instructor even when i don't feel like working out i have to go because it's also my job....so it's good and bad, i can't just sit on the sofa sometimes when i want to but that forces me to stick with it and keep going even when i don't want to but i do take breaks when i'm not working out and get rest. it's a balance....workout and rest...both have to be good for optimal fitness

Since I'm diabetic, working out is not really optional either. I try to look at it as part of my job. I get up 5 days a week and go to work so I try and force myself to do my workout 5 days a week. Once I get back into my normal routine and get my stamina back, I'm sure I'll get my motivation back. Maybe if I start reading all of the Women's Health magazines that I have piling up it'll help, too!

I used to put diabetics on eating plans when I worked for a Cardiologist before my fitness career. You should be on a low-glycemic eating regime. I highly recommend the webinar for you bcs you sound like you have desire but need accountability and structure. It is actually produced by Dr. Shari Lieberman who is known for helping her patients lose weight (body fat) and keeping it off without going for crazy calorie restrictions.

I'm not the "normal" type 2 diabetic. I'm not overweight. I'm struggling, though, to fit into my size 2/4's because I haven't been exercising as much as was previously.
I'm very strict with my eating. I tried ADA's diet but that was too many carbs. My doc suggested Southbeach --but I love fruit too much. So I do a modified Southbeach with at least 1 piece of fruit a day. I stay between 1300 & 1500 calories a day.

K:You should be able to eat fruit. The melon family are the only ones that are high gylcemic, so limiting those would be great.
M: You may want to do some higher reps with 5lb weights so that you can burn more body fat. Also, you should eat like an angel 90% of the time. Your cardio sounds fine.

I am in the Houston area and have a tummy tuck planned for April 14th. That's 10 weeks from now. I weigh approx 200 (keep hovering over a +/- 3 pounds). Around September I was 215, and started to diet on my own...some exercise, but not nearly enough. I pulled off 6 lbs (thanks, Christmas!) however It's now HIGH TIME I get as much off as I can to optimize the benefits of the tuck. Since the beginning of the new year, I lost 9 lbs, but began to plateau, big time. Was doing the 6 week body makeover, and doing the "fast track" plan which had greens at every meal and snack (not a problem for me) with either chicken, turkey or tuna with it. No breads, no dairy, no sweets/sugar. So I had been eating extremely low fat and okay with it. I haven't felt that good in a long time. Constipation was a thing of the past and all was well. Kept losing and gaining the 3 lbs and it just got annoying. Then I bought Alli because a couple of my friends had done it with amazing results. I'm afraid to weigh myself because I've been eating more than usual on this diet. They tell you to add back in some fat because your results will be greater if you eat more fat - suggests to keep your fat around 15 grams PER MEAL. That's hard for me now that I've been doing so well with NO fat.
My question is this - since the low fat/greens and tuna diet I had grown accustomed to wasn't working anymore, should I be doing this alli plan with extra fat? or should I be adding flax to my tuna and greens and try that? I want to be at MOST 180 by the time I have surgery, so that's 20 lbs down in 10 weeks. It's do-able, but will be hard. I'm not fluffy at all - my "weight" is carried all over and I think MOST of it is water....what do I do?
Please respond - I am dying over here!

I commend you for wanting to work on your lifestyle changes instead of just jumping on the OP table only. I personally am not a fan of Alli and I am not a fan of your mainly high protein diet (that should be 2 weeks MAX). I would suggest you do research on some natural weight loss supplements. I would highly recommend adding some complex carbs to your diet along with fruit. Organic cheese 1x/wk is great too. Have a variety of fruit and veggies, especially since as humans we tend to be creatures of habit. Last but not least, most of my clients who have lots of stored fat skip meals. They get busy and skip meals so much that it is a habit. Please make yourself eat small meals and drink water even when you don't want to or don't feel hungry or thirsty.
ps I believe you will have a speedy recovery after surgery.

i would encourage you to do several small BALANCED meals and lots of water. continue to eliminate the white stuff. add green tea (tea bags not the bottled w/ extra stuff in it). i also like yerba mate (it's a tea) you can get it at whole foods or the vitamin shoppe. i don't know anything about alli except what i've read which is that depending on how you eat your food can go right through your system, fast!! anyway, balance your diet, don't eat late. don't eat a lot of fruit. make sure you're taking a good multi. get some good cardio in, preferably in the morning on an empty stomach (think body for life). i'm also a fan of breath work and mind/body exercising for a healthy balanced body and mind. i'm in houston too! good luck for your surgery.

don't let your age keep you from going to the instructor trainings! some of our best instructors are a little bit older. ironically a lot of early 20's aren't that interested in the responsibility of teaching. there are a lot of 30 & 40 something women in the classes and they LOVE seeing someone they can relate to instructing them. i think you'd be great...being a teacher in the classroom will translate well to the gym.
which formats are you interested in teaching? cycling is what got me hooked but i really love teaching the pilates and strength classes now too. i've also taught one of the dance formats we had and i'm going to be working with the belly dance instructor in hopes of being able to teach that one day....
go for it!! look into the ace certification, although it's not required for 24 hour fitness now but you can teach anywhere with it...and they have a plethora of good resources once you get your certification...
any other questions you have just let me know!!

Wondering if you've ever seen the "For Emergency Use Only" workout/diet in either M&F Hers or Oxygen magazine (I can't remember which). It had a pretty balanced diet and the exercise plan was cardio every morning and weights every night so that your body was constantly reminded that it needed to be running at maximum capacity at all times, hence, weight lost. Meals were 5 or 6 daily. At this point, something like that REALLY IS an emergency being that my dr. has suggested that I drop 20+ so that I will be happier with the surgery. (Frankly, the before and afters for the fitter patients were downright amazing, next to the B&A's of the non-fit lazy-looking patients.) I'd rather be one of the "OMG" photos....
What is your opinion of the emergency plan I just described? It's doable to me, but I'm not sure if I would really be hurting myself to do too much all at once.....
