So how does a lazyass get back in shape?
Ok, so I'm 29...finally hitting that age where weight is gaining, as opposed to my never-wavering weight of the last 8 years or so. I'm eating more, better, drinking beer, etc...Going to skool, and not getting exercise, except for sex :D

So, I'm getting a lil belly, and I want it gone...What shall I do, Lounge? Advice appreciated...Nothing too strenuous though :P

:hi:

1. More sex.
:rofl:

Seriously though, lift weights and do some cardio. Try to eat a little healthier. Probably cut back on alcohol, but as a drunk, I would never seriously suggest that part to you. I need to start working out more myself. My arms are so skinny for me. I mean, they're still pretty buff for a girl, but not as buff as I like them.

2. I'm eating pretty healthy
Omnivore, but pretty well balanced. Yeah, I use whole milk dairy, but I'm a foodie....sue me. :P And olive oil only...I think it's an exercise issue, and I gotta get on it. I just never seem to have time right now, I'm so busy, every day of the week. Sigh...but yes, more sex...poor Sniffa... :rofl:

15. Aw geez...I just got it.
I wasn't referring to you, although you are also hot. You're older than me, but not notably so.

5. There was this guy on CBS Sunday Morning today...
He's running 50 marathons in 50 days.

26 miles, every day, for 50 days straight.

He says he's doing this to inspire others to do "something, anything. Get out of your house and walk around the block. You have to start somewhere."

I'm SO going for a run tomorrow. Even if it's only 43 steps. :patriot:

(His name's Doug Something. He has a book called Mega Marathon Man, or Extreme!!! Marathon Man or something. I can't find it at the CBS site, but that could be due to the fact that I'm drunk. Go fitness!!1 :D)

:loveya: :yourock:

11. Dude...I totally have boob issues with it too
You just basically have to get some contraption that smushes everything to the point of immobility. :D

I also have a festering knee injury that could, at any moment (according to my orthopedic surgeon) snap and render me useless. x(

But there's something so very peaceful, so very zen about running once you get in "the zone". I used to do sprints in high school (and was quite good, actually; go figure :D) but the slower, long distance thing is really appealing to me now. Grab your iPod, load it with chill stuff but with beats and just zone and go. ;)

18. It's genius
I've always been the poster child for "I only run if something really, really big is chasing me". And god knows I'm no marathoner or anything, but I find just getting OUT and doing it, even for the aforementioned 43 steps, is so completely like...relaxing. Which is odd, but it works. :D

16. The Shock Absorber by Nike is hands down THE BEST sports bra
on the planet.

Settle for NO other. I'm a 34DD and this bra, the Shock Absorber is the best thing ever constructed by human hands for restraining boobage.

So, there's one more barrier removed, GET MOVING!
