I have also done many POP pilates workouts on you tube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCg_gh_fppI<br />If I were to recommend anything, I'd say to just check out youtube and find something you like there! There are tons of fitness videos on there, especially of the yoga and pilates variety:)Jamie Lighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04637306241396474657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8610914247566390010.post-74476074033056821732012-05-23T20:38:05.443-07:002012-05-23T20:38:05.443-07:00Thank you!

To hear you say that makes me want to cry. But in a good way, of course;) I suppose you're probably right, too...how nice it is to know that there are people who are more interested in the other parts of us to not notice the parts of ourselves that we are afraid of. Things like that are very easy to forget when you live in a society such as this.<br />Thank you for reminding me. I love you:)Jamie Lighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04637306241396474657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8610914247566390010.post-63570977182171719302012-05-22T05:18:25.557-07:002012-05-22T05:18:25.557-07:00"...They couldn't tell me the truth, beca..."...They couldn't tell me the truth, because they could see how much pain my weight caused me internally." <br />I know that I can't speak for everyone but I know that when someone with a spirit as beautiful as yours, it's hard to see the outside as much. I know it sounds silly because how could you not see the outside packaging--but it's true. <br />When my best friends ask me if they look alright or if my boyfriend asks me if his hair looks weird, I can only imagine that I'm a terrible person to ask because when I look at these people all I can see is the beautiful parts of them. I don't see wide hips or a strange haircut. It's not that I don't want to hurt their feelings. I just don't see it!<br /><br />And frankly, I never saw it on you, either. Not until I see posts like this where you compare and contrast the old and the new. Your packaging is so pretty! And you look a thousand times happier! <br />It makes me wonder how pretty and happy I could look under here.Libby Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12621744095054412830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8610914247566390010.post-48773996723377479622012-05-22T04:49:12.625-07:002012-05-22T04:49:12.625-07:00Thank you so much!

The closer I got to my goal weight, the more I knew I needed to intensify, but really focusing on calories can get you on your way! Of course, exercise is totes important, so I found this link that might be of help? http://www.3fatchicks.com/10-cardio-workouts-that-are-easy-on-knees/<br />I'm a big fan of pilates myself, and there are always modifications for different poses that might be hard on people's joints. Good luck on your journey, and never hesitate to ask if you have any questions!Jamie Lighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04637306241396474657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8610914247566390010.post-11622854631953512202012-05-22T04:45:25.930-07:002012-05-22T04:45:25.930-07:00Thank you, Dian!

I felt like I was on the right track, until about 5 days ago, I realized that it's not normal for the workout video that I was using, to be giving me intense pain in my knees, day in and day out. I have been trying to find a video that has little to no squats or lunges in it, but that has proven to be much more difficult than I thought. I was ready to give up. You have inspired me to keep going. I am sitting down with a pen and paper right now to create my own customized "workout video." I'm not an expert, but it's better than nothing, right!?

Get yourself a wrap dress and wear it proudly, my dear! And keep in mind that even when you're not feeling like your true you, you still deserve to feel like the beautiful woman you are, inside and out. If you can't see it with your eyes, remember that you have a strikingly handsome husband who thinks YOU'RE the only woman worth loving;)Jamie Lighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04637306241396474657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8610914247566390010.post-29154268266240423502012-05-21T18:49:33.452-07:002012-05-21T18:49:33.452-07:00Jamie, you hit the nail on the head.

Now, I shy from the camera and I guess I don't believe I really look like what I do to other people. I try to hide under big, baggy clothes and just don't look in the mirror. It's time I started looking at the REAL me!Chrissyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16119401724584816424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8610914247566390010.post-11062103093723267252012-05-21T18:44:31.858-07:002012-05-21T18:44:31.858-07:00I swear this post sounds like it's coming from...I swear this post sounds like it's coming from my own diary.
