I want to try something that will get me out of that mindset and kick me into gear. Suggestions?

Get the Winsor Pilates DVDs. The basic 20-minute dvd, and the 20-minute abs workout are guaranteed to work. They also have an Upper Body workout, and a Legs/buns workout. If you do the basic workout and the abs workout (a little difficult but once you learn the motions) 3-4 times a week, you will easily lose at least an inch in the first two weeks.
Also, lots of water will help tummy pooches, bc it helps get rid of water retention and any constipation.
Lastly, try walking 5-10 miles a week to get your metabolism going and build lean muscle. LAst time I did 10 miles a week, I lost 10 pounds in a month. In fact, I am going to start that program again.
Let me know if you decide to do Pilates. It feels awesome.
