OK, I've avoided posting here long enough it looks Gabe is taking it seriously, so I'll add my two cents...
Well, I'd had an on and off relationship with several gyms around here before, so I'm not a total newbie though I still have much to improve. So I decided to sign up for this one program focused on burning your body fat a week ago, just before this thread was found. I'm trying to change my diet - I eliminated sugar (I still get some from fruits and juices, muesli bars and stuff), I got rid of the white, wheat pastry and I try to focus on eating more healthily. I used to eat twice or three times a day, now I'm munching on something almost all the time - it keeps you from over-eating being hungry and your metabolism is kept on high working. And I decided to go back to the gym as many times as possible, last week it was 5 times out of 7 days. I've paid for the monthly membership and it's more motivating because every time I don't go there, the average price for one entry just gets higher Part (well, better said the goal) of that program is that you (I) burn 10 % of my body fat in next 31 days (now only 24 left...). Now when I came out with that on public I'm under your supervision as well, so I hope it helps.
Oh, and I'm considering walking more. The public transport system here is compensating that I don't have a car, so I'm not that motivated to walk. Moreover my work is 5 km (slightly over 3 miles) far, so it's like 45-60 minutes of walking and I like sleeping in the morning more But compared with the travel by buses that takes around 20-30 minutes... I'm really considering it... (but I'm also considering moving nearer my work )
