[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 112828, member: 3907"] I LOVE my fit ball. It's fun and I don't really feel like I'm working when I use it, but it's truly amazing exercise. I think mine is called "Simply Gym Ball", and it came with a little book and a DVD. I haven't actually read the book or watched the DVD, I just bounce around on it. Little easy child has a big Superman bouncy ball, and I have my fit ball. We take them out in the back yard, and we just bounce around on them. We lie on our stomachs on top of the balls, and then walk on our hands, until the ball is just under our feet. We have contests to see who can roll further without falling off. We lie on our backs on the ground and squeeze the balls between our feet, and then lift them into the air using our legs. We throw and catch the balls (and miss a lot, and spend a lot of time running around the yard, catching stray balls) Sometimes we play Giant Bouncy Ball Soccer with them. Because I'm just playing with my little tike, it doesn't feel like exercise, but it's quite a workout. Chele, I understand completely. Being a half-pint myself, a little bit of weight goes a long long way. 10 lbs on me is like 20 on an average-sized person. My big suggestion for motivating yourself is to have fun. For me, if it's not fun then it feels too much like work and I don't want to do it. If you can find a physical activity that's fun for you (I like the walk with a friend suggestions made by others) then that will keep you motivated. All the best, Trinity [/QUOTE]
