hi
i'm a 28yr old mother of a 2yr old and totally out of shape since my son was born. I had severe hamoroid condition after my preg. so couldnt do any post natal excercises, then i had to travel abroad for couple of months and got pampered for 'just had a baby' reasons....!!! The problem is i obviously gained weight during preg. and alot afterwards and now its been 2yrs and i still cant get hold of myslf to get back in shape.....i'm now 64kg and would LOVE to get back to 50kg....but i dunno how to.....!!! ...
i get so sad sometimes looking at all the slim ppl arnd me (a majority in hk) and feel like an outcast but i dunno what to do....i need help....i wanna lose weight asap...any sort of info or opinion would be great....if you know any cheap personal trainer or something like that would be great....
thanks alot

Hi If226,
I joined the YMCA in Tsim Sha Tsui and it has helped immensely to keep my physical as well as emotional health in balance. They offer a variety of exercise programs ie. pilates, aerobics, kickboxing, belly dancing, aquacise (my favorite), etc. There are different levels of membership and fees so you can choose whatever suits your schedule and budget. The group classes are encouraging because you see other people who are also trying to improve their fitness so you don't feel alone.
There are personal trainers on staff that can help assess your fitness and help you start on an exercise program.
I ignore billboards and fashion magazines that feature models who are made up by professional artists to look that way in order to sell their products. It is futile to compare ourselves to those women you see in magazines as well as those annoying signs plastered all over the MTR stations.
There's a YWCA on MacDonnell Road, Central, that offers different classes too.
(I prefer the Y in TST mainly because they offer Aquacise and YWCA does not)
Good luck and don't give up; physical exercise is so beneficial for living a balanced life.

hi tangroberta
thanks alot for your message....i'm defiantely going to check it out.
I dont get attracted to the magazines or stuff but living here in hk every other girl/women you see on the street looks like a model figure....so even a little bit fat makes you stand out of the crowd ... besides you dont find good style/design clothes (esp. jeans) that commonly and at reasonable price...!
Anyway thanks again for your message....hopefully it'll work for me too!!!!

sounds good but i don't know how to do pm's. i just wrote this on another blog regarding liposuction. there is a great site for finding out how to lose weight fast
just read about an alternative to it. see carboxytherapy at www.drimage.com.hk, but it's painful and expensive. $7,500 for 5 sessions, but it make take ten to work. Look in this month's list. page 49. there are lots of good ways to cheat without doing liposuction. i got to movers and shapers, which is fantastic. in 30 mins, you get a workout like it was a 2 hr workout. info.hk.cwb@moversandshapers.net
check out the amazing Nuphedriine and Flex Belt on the site below. good luck. don't do liposuction unless you've tried and failed in everything else.

I need an exercise buddy. I was going to the gym before getting pregnant and had to stop going to the gym for awhile. I used to go to the gym with my husband but now that he works in the evenings, he'd rather sleep during the day. Now that I don't have anyone to go with, i seem not to have much energy to go and have gained more weight as a result. We should plan something!!

Oh by the way, I have a three month old daughter!

Hello ladies. Would anyone want to walk around the botanic gardens or pokfulam or the peak? I'd love to meet up! Just let me know when and where! Babies and strollers welcome! I have a little one too. i also have a huge stomach and look pregnant, but am not, so i'd rather meet up with ladies who don't have 23 inch waists!!!:)

Hello
I had the same problem but i am man.I was 20 pounds over weighted.
I lost it in three month with a trainer, it was kind of hard but his workout were not boring at all. Half on the ground, half exercising in the sea. here is his email athleboy69(at)msn.com.
Tell him you call from JB, I think he will give you lower price.
He was a former high level athlete on 5k-10000m I think, he definitely know what he talks about.
