Haha, so I was looking around for some thin cotton kind of shorts to wear under my dress to prevent the "chub rub" and I came across this, which I think is just too funny looking!  Had to share.

Ladies....I'm soo glad I came across this thread.  It's nice to know i'm not the only one out there that's bigger, which I know i'm not, but sometimes it feels like it!!  Glad to have someone to talk to that actually understands!

Lisa....totally understand what you mean about exercise....at times I can be soo motivated and other times I'm not motivated at all....just feel exausted from the bustle of everyday living.  btw, congrats on losing the weight and good luck with the Biggest Loser Comp!!

Ooooh, sexy!  There is actually a product that you can get that works very well..it is called Body Glide and is often found in running stores.  Helps stop chafing with runners, and certainly helps with the thigh issue.

LOL I just clicked that link too.   Way too sexy for me!   I'll vote for Body Glide also -- Running Room carries it.

Haha you've got to be kidding me! Now I've seem everything, lol!

I've heard of Body Glide before, just wondering if anyone knows how long it lasts?  Is it something you'd have to reappply in a couple hours?

I got a major heat rash under my arms in the Dominican after 3 days (mind you I NEVER had any relief from the heat, not even at night).  I bought Body Glide and it worked like a charm.  I applied it every morning, and then again just before supper (just in case).
 

 

UPDATE:

thanks to my brother, he has gotten me to a point where I can participate in a full 1 hour cardio kickboxing class!  His Martial Arts Club puts on a "bag" course.  We punch, kick, squat, and do situps for 1 hour straight.  I have pushed myself beyond my limits (something I learned because of my brother), and I even encourage my skinny friend to keep going.  I sweat like a Mother F***** but thankfully the class only has 3 others so I don't feel like a complete idiot.  

 

My eating habits are still terrible, but at least I've improved one aspect of my life.  I had a sedentary lifestyle.  I have a sit down job, then came home and either watched TV or went on the computer.  I seriously NEVER moved.  Now I couldn't be happier!

 

You have to start somewhere, no matter HOW SMALL it is!!  For me it was 20 minutes of working with my brother once a week!  How embarrassing!  But now look at me go!  Now I'm up to 2 hours a week of hard core workouts!  

 

Thanks for listening guys!  I have only told 3 other friends/family in my life.  People have stopped believing in me so I tend to keep more quiet around most people.

Wow you're doing awesome!! Now I just need to take that inspiration and run with it. I am exactly like you WERE, totally sedentary. Go you!!

I know what you mean about how people stop believing in you.  I have started so many times to get on the right track and I never stick to it, so I guess I can't blame them for being sceptical when I talk about trying again.  I think I really need a kick in the butt to get going, just have to figure out what "kick" works for me!    It's awesome how your brother helps you, clearly he believes in you.  Keep it up!
