My New New Exercise Workout Routine

No I didn't make a mistake in the title.  This is really new, well not really, but it's new this month anyway.  I have decided to start back on the exercise bike again this week.  I am going to ride my exercise bike for about 20 minutes for five times a week.

I know the exercise bike works, I have personally seen results.  I just need to keep motivated and start my new good exercise habit and keep it up.  I am looking for a dieting twofer here:  1. more energy 2. more calories burned and weight loss.

Here's to hoping it works out!

Skinny People Don't Eat Much!

I have come to the conclusion that skinny people just don't eat that much.  I am not sure if it is because they are not that hungry or that they don't want to get fat.  Either way they eat less than most overweight Americans.  They don't eat much and stay lean, meanwhile the rest of us are actually overfeeding ourselves.

Some proof that skinny people don't eat much comes from this book - Is She Naturally Thin or Disciplined?  Insider Secrets of the Sexy and Slim by Sally Shields.   


Most of the women in the book have always been thin and they don't eat very much.  I also read an article about Kelly Ripa who is skinny and it sounds like she doesn't eat very much either.  She said something about eating dessert that just sounds crazy to me.  Kelly Ripa said that if she has dessert in the house she will eat it but then she might not have dessert for another three months.  More proof right there that skinny people don't eat much. But it also made me think and helped me get back on my diet track.

I have started a new calorie restrictive diet and actually get hungry and hear my stomach rumble.  It has been a very long time since that has been happening to me, which means I have been eating way too much.  It really sucks because I like to eat and society is built around food gatherings.  Because I want to be skinny I am willing to go on another diet and try to lose weight.

College Weight Diet Book

Diet & Workout to help you get back to your College Weight

The College Dorm Workout written by Joyce L. Vedral and her daughter Simone Marthe


Are you currently in college and don't want to gain the Freshman 15 or 20 or more?  Or maybe you just want to get back to that college weight ( that's what I am working for) Then you should look into this book.  It has a diet plan and a workout routine, that works.  I know it is old but I have used this book over the years since I graduated from college to lose weight and it consistently has allowed me to lose up to 20 pounds a few times over.

My New Exercise Routine

Exercise is important to weight loss.
Others will disagree but I know for a fact that it can make a difference.  I have lost weight with exercise and lost that same weight without exercise.  I still lost the weight without exercising but I did not have the same energy after the time I didn't use exercise with my diet.  Not only did I not have much energy, my body looks fatter and my stomach is flabbier.

So now I need to find an exercise that I can do that I will keep up.  Right now I am being lazy and don't want to get on the treadmill, bike or do any exercise videos.  So I came up with this "brilliant" plan to run up and down the stairs.  Well I was going to add once more up and down the steps every day until I reach 100 because that seemed like a good number.  Today I wanted to quit and I am only up to 5 times.  I did it but when I was finished and felt like I was going to die and never wanted to go up the stairs again, I had a light bulb moment.  Who said I have to run up the stairs, sure it would be much better for me, but if I give up after 5 days then it does me no good.  So now I am just going to climb the stairs adding once more each day, only not running, it will be walking or at a jogging pace.

Well I don't know if it will work or not, but I know I have to do something.  So I will see how long this lasts. Because I need to feel better about my self and look more toned and in shape.

Diet Diva - About Me

Diet Diva  - Who Am I?
I am a stay at home mom now working a part time job of 3 kids and a loving husband.  Unfortunately I am still trying to lose the baby weight.  My first two pregnancies I lost weight much more easier.  But with the third and final child and a slower metabolism (which I never really believed in when I was younger) and I still need to lose weight.  I have been on many diets over the past 15 years I thought I would share a little bit with others so that they might be able to lose weight too.
