I have a Belly Dancing video that's fun. It's Neena and Veena I think. It's basically 30 minutes of cardio and stretching. I had fun when I was working out. (I'm just lazy.)

Or get one of those baby strollers that runners use. I see those everywhere in parks in the mornings.

That's good that you can wait to get married. I think it'd be stressful having to plan one right after the baby was born and having a timeline to lose weight. You may be in pretty good shape after the 6 weeks! If it's only 10 pounds, you could lose that in a few months if you try hard. I've done it before. It's not fun, but it's definitely managable.

Thank you RedRose SAI! I love my blog!

That said, I do enjoy Carmen Electra's Aerobic Striptease.

Oh, lauralaylin, I checked out your blog - funny stuff on there.
Cosign honey...I swear it almost scares me. Maybe I'm *not* old enough yet, but seriously, everytime the subject of having kids comes up, it makes me want to cringe. The time that I see sweet well behaved kids does not make up for the time that I see the screaming brats in the grocery store, or whatever.

I'm still in school, not getting married until october 2007. I hope by then that the clock will start ticking, cause if it dont, I'm gonna begin to think there's something seriously wrong with me. I know deep down, I WANT kids - but everytime I think about it it makes me want to hurl.

I'll be 30 in a few months, and it still makes me cringe. I wouldn't mind having a family, but I'm not interested in having babies. ::sigh::

Nothing wrong with that. You can have a great family without children! If you don't want to have a baby, there's always adoption!

Has anyone tried the Yoga Booty Ballet or Turbo Jam workout videos? I'm thinking of getting one and wanted to see if anyone had a recommendation.

I'm in great shape, i just need something fun to do when I'm burned out from the gym - so I have no unrealistic expectations to lose 150 lbs and get 6-pack abs, haha!

Thanks!

Turbo Jam is fun yet at the same time is very repetitive...not sure if that would be a problem for you. But it starts out with an introduction but it does increase. It's cool if you stick with it. They have an eating and exercise regimen for you to follow. I recommend them.

I also recommend the FIRM workout series. They give you visible results in ten days. The key is ... you must stick with it.
