I also have back problems and I find that swimming really helps. Not only is it great exercise but, it's no impact. In fact, I find my back hurts less after I've gone for a swim. I've been going twice a week for an hour each time for the last 14 weeks. Not only have I lost weight but my back pain has decrease dramatically. I encourage you give it a try. It might work for you.
My best friend is extremely overweight. She confided in me that the reason why she's heavy was due to wanting to 'protect' herself with her weight. Is this something you also struggle with? Also, do you hate thin women? And before everyone has a hissy fit, I'm just the kind of person who will ask honestly. Congrats on meeting your goals.
Feel free to ask away! No I have never wanted to hide or protect myself with weight. I've always hated the weight. I have a medical condition called PCOS which makes it EXTREMELY hard to lose weight and super easy to gain in... so that has really been a hinder. I do not hate thin winner what so ever. I hate society/men's attitudes and opinions that thin women are the only way to go and that everyone should be 120lbs or what not. Some people will never be tiny thin but they can/should be healthy!
Rae, thank you for being so candid. Much love from Canada to you. Yes, it's really a media attitude towards the 'ideal thin woman' that drives and informs men AND women what we should strive for. The media body ideal hurts men and women and young children. I'm happy to hear you don't hate women who are thin. My couz has PCOS and I totally understand what happens when you have that. I applaud your vlog b/c it's honest and your goal is health.
i feel u...i have PCOS too and i find it hard to loose weight too i believe the most i have lost was like 10 lbs & thats cus i would go to the gym & do aerobics 5 times per week...i kinda stopped though but im planning to go back :-) and well honestly u did inspire me to get my butt back to losing weight :-)
I have PCOS also, I have managed to lose 58lbs, over 2 yrs of ups and downs. well done for your loss, i am starting the south beach diet tomorrow as i have read its good for PCOS suffers!! Nice to finally find someone with PCOS losing weight :) I look forward to your other videos. Take care and WELL DONE :D
You look really great. You can see the difference in your face a lot. Keep it up!! You're inspiring me to get my butt off the couch and get out and walk and eat better!
Check out some of my previous vids to see what i'm doing specifically! It's nothing hard or structured... Thanks so much for subbing! Good job on your weight loss!
Wow! Girl I have been so busy and not watching vids and I clicked on yours and your face looks so much thinner!! Way to go on the loss this week and the overall loss! your are doing great!
As I've said before, you look absolutely amazing. You are a beautiful person inside and out, even before you lost weight! But kudos to you for getting healthy. I'm so proud of your success!
Great Job!!! I can see a big difference from ur first videos u look great... Keep up the good work girl, u r def an inspiration to me!!! I will be posting my first weigh in today... I wish I had lost more, but at least I did lose!!!

PS I really hope u feel better soon! and I really enjoy ur videos...
You look beautiful!! Great job with the weight loss!! You should feel amazing about yourself! Time for new make up! I'm so sorry you're sickies. Take lots of vitamin c and drink TONS of water and green tea. Hope you get better soon, honey.
tonsilitus is a royal pain used to have it 3 times a year every year as a kid then as I got older I had to have injections in my neck as it closed up all the time gross. Well done on the weight loss :0)
You're doing great, Rae! You look fabulous. Congratulations on the milestone. That is HUGE. Be sure to celebrate somehow when you're feeling up to it again.
yay! Good for you hunny. I know it sucks being sick but I'm very proud of you. 30 pounds is a lot to lose. I know that you will be getting better soon. Feel better!
Feel better honey...you look absolutely stunning even though you're sick. BTW, loving the old school No Doubt's Tragic Kingdom in the background...my fav album from them :)
Congrats!!! I hope you've been taking progress pics and tracking your measurements so that you can look back on your progress! Keep up the great work!
That's where I've slipped... haven't taken any measurements and only like 2 pics EEK! When I start curves they will measure me once a month so that will be good! Thanks honey!
I hope you're getting to feel better hon! Tonsillitis sucks so bad! Congrats on the 30 pounds loss, that is so amazing! You look great for feeling bad, I look like death when i'm sick HAHA.
It really works, but most any exercise program is going to work. I like curves b/c you lose weight and tone at the same time. It's more expensive than a regular gym I'd say $40 a month or so. It's so worth it though... you can't put a price on health!
so how much have you lost so far
