Trying to get into shape

[sanderson3d]

Diet is the biggie here. Couple your diet with some exercise and the weight will come off, but be realistic as to how much you will lose, as age plays a big part in that as well.

Others have stated this, but drop creamy salad dressings and mayonnaise on sandwiches. Go with good oil and vinegar or neat veggies, skip the sandwich too and go for veggies, fruit and the protein that would be in your sandwich. Cut out most of your carbs and starches. Have your carbs at breakfast, with fruit and protein. No bread, potatoes, rice or pastas at lunch or dinner. Add any exercise in and you'll drop weight.

Boom. Shape is made by your diet.

You will gain weight if you don't adjust your diet as you will likely feel hungrier.

I would also only drink water / tea / coffee. Drastically reduce the amount of alcohol you drink.

Don't worry about it. Women love the jiggly body.

If you're on the road a lot, I'd suggest you check out a GoodLife near where you live and ask to meet a few different personal trainers.
Here's why.
Personal trainer to put you on the right track and keep you on it.
Near to home for convenience for your personal training sessions.
Meet a few trainers to find one whose philosophy works for you.
GoodLife because they are everywhere. If you get stuck in traffic somewhere, jump off the highway and squeeze in a workout.

I agree you really need to be selective with the trainers at Good life. I spent 5 months with one that was a total joke.. I am now happy with mine now. I recommend getting one that actually has a university degree and/or has played professional sports. Otherwise.. many of them can be total slackers.

A vigorous romp with a buxom wench on a regular basis is all one needs to stay in shape.

If someone is travelling all the time, it comes down to willpower again, but there's also opportunity to keep your diet in check. Companies won't care if you expense steak and potato dinners every night with booze. And it seems like a freebie, but some people can keep their food bill in line with healthy food and some can't.

I'll be the first to admit that when I travel (not too often), I'm the guy who takes advantage and expenses steak and rib combo plates with a potato, and then eat the dinner rolls and butter. Terrible. I know it. But being realistic, I know I do this a few times a year. On the other hand, some people I travel with will stop at a grocery store buy healthy stuff and actually stock the mini-fridge with a few days worth of fruits and veggies and snack on that, while I'll grab a bag of chips. I have to say that is solid willpower. The company doesn't give a shit if you pig out for lunch and dinner on their dime, yet some people can still keep a regular schedule of healthy lifestyle.

Some people I know bring gym shirts and running shoes to work out at the gym. While some people will never work out in a hotel.

In all honesty, I paid for the double Ds.]

Actually, Kat, it is we who pay for the double Ds.

I have discovered an easy and certain way to lose weight, and it's free!

You simply reduce the frequency of your bowel movements.

Really focus: You may have to work up to it... first try going for 12 hours, then 24, then 36. You'll really feel full and your appetite will be considerably reduced. By the time you can hold out 48 hours, the weight will just be melting off (provided you weigh yourself after a purge.)

One word of warning... It doesn't do anyhing good for your breath.
