I did go to gym yesterday and it was ok.......i didnt feel bad or anything! But ya i have few concerns;

1. I just cant push myself to increase my speed @ treadmill more than 5.3 and i think thats bad...no?

2. Since i am on a weight loss spree lol...i have been reading up alot on net and i came across some horrific images and talks about how you will end up with loose skin even if you have to loosel ike 10 pounds...so i am scared cuz i was aiming to loose alot more than that

............So what to do?. i mean its weird that even if u do it the right way you would end up with that saaging skin

havin that is worse than havin some fat on yr body.........so help!!!!!!!!

3. What can be done to minimize the dangers of getting loose skiin...uff!!! so much distractions when u wanna loose some weight

Take it slowly, ure doing just fine. I used to do 5.0 when I started, for half an hour. Gradually bumped it up, over the span of a few months, and now I start at 7.0mph, and then increase .2mph every 5 minutes and go upto 8mph by the time I'm done. I keep a 2.0 incline as that makes it tougher and targets my thighs for resistance training. Just be patient and stick to the speed you are comfortable with and gradually crank it up.

oh ok, thanx alot

....In between i try to bump up the speed even if for 3-4 mins as suggested by someone. So i guess i will eventually build up the stamina for more. Thanx again

.

Yesterday it same at gym except that i did treadmil for 5 mins less than the usual since the trainer had to leave early...but than in betwee i also did abs so i guess thats ok....hmmm and ya i think i m getting tiny bit comfortable with the stretches lol and that feels nice....actually just saw on news abt peshawar bomb blast while on treadmil so that distracted

....anyways 2day is the last day at gym before eid and than it opens on thursday but i plan to go on walking all these days ofcourse except sunday and eid day

...i even have a treadmill at home maybe i wl use that but than i dont wanna use it cuz of voltage issues it got fused last time n costed alot to get it fixed...m thinking abt just selling it off........hmmm lets c

yeah im sure he had some procedures done too but its still pretty amazing.

Maham S · Dec 6th, 2008, 02:29 PM

^ no that he is cute...well how about taking a poll here and finding out if people knew b4 or didnt that he was cute....lol come on fat does take away alot from your appearance but you can always tell if the person is nice looking or not.

Yeah but he went through some really life threatening procedures to lose that weight! There's loose skin hanging from his face!

Hes a really nice guy though, I used to be in his choir back in grade 3, when he came out with Raag Time. This was before his bollywood adventures though, when he was a real musician.

This is how I remember him:

oh my goodness, even at my peak physical shape

i couldn't go beyond 5.6 for longer than a minute or two. aye haye.

Skittlez · Dec 6th, 2008, 10:49 PM

Ok im not that unhappy with my physique, I only have like ten pounds to lose to being back to my skinny self and I cant get past 5.5 max 5.7 for more than 3 minutes. How do you guys do it? And the elliptical is one thing I have never learned to love... lately I just do ten minutes... 15 is really pushing it and I feel like im dying.

now that is bad cardio and stamina, and ppl dont go to gym just be in shape, they go to gym so that they could remain fit and healthy and could get comparatively better old age. u really gota work on ur cardio and stamina, i assume u r young, after u cross 35 u can have probes God forbid, so keep on doing everything u dislike in gym, and insha Allah u'll get there.
