Answer 2

Well... getting motivated is your first step.

1) Get a friend to do the same workout plan as you. It seriously works, I swear. Because when you're not in the mood to work out, your friend should be the one to push you and get you pumped to get up and go. Same thing for when your friend is the one who's not feelin it. You guys could even make a game out of it to see who can do more and make bets. Loser fills the other's gas tank. (I bet you'll be a little motivated then!) haha or it could be loser buys lunch... or something small...

2) Download a lot of fast pace music that makes you happy and in a great mood and put all of them on a playlist on your mp3 player and sing the lyrics in your head to every song when you work out... On a treadmill or running outside, this does wonders... A lot of the time I forget that I'm even running.

3) Buy a clothing item or break out an old one that you can no longer fit and hang it in your kitchen.. preferably next to the fridge or snack cabinet. TRUST me, you'll think twice before you get ready to throw down on some cookies.

As for exercising, workout 6 days a week, resting for one day. That gym idea sounds great... maybe do cardio (like running) for 30 minutes up to an hour a day. Include strength training afterwards, like crunches and lifting light weights (3-5 libs) for toning up.

I have a fun abdominal exercise you might or might like.. But I find it fun rather tan crunches. Make sure you've got a lot of room on a carpeted floor. Sit indian style with your hands clamped to you legs (shins) and roll around the floor. Because you're not using your arms and legs, you only using momentum and abs to roll. Do it for like 10-15 minutes during a tv show until a commercial break. I laugh the entire time I do it, (which is double the strength training because laughing works your abs as well!)

Just try some of these things, and good luck! I hope I helped.

well twenty pounds isnt that much to lose so you should be able to lose it pretty fast......start off slow and than build up. Start with just running half for a few days and than build up that ALWAYS works. As far as a diet just watch what you eat, dont eat alot of sugars, count your calories, and eat about six small meals spread acorss the day............keeps your metabolism up
