I was just wondering how did all of you start getting in shape. I'm the type of person that feels if I don't start on a certain day or if I skip or miss then its ruined and I have to start all over again. Yes, I will occassionally do exercises but I really need to get my butt (literally) into shape and I guess I don't have the motivation it takes to do that. How did all of you start?
Another thing is how did you train yourself to eat differently. I love salads but unlike my husband who lost over a 100 pounds just by eating salads everyday, I can't eat the same foods over and over again, I need variety. Any suggestions on how I could eat healthy but not eat the same thing and eat stuff that I don't need to count every ounce of fat and calories. I hate the whole counting thing. I'm more of the type to eat moderately.

By the way my husband went to his doctor appointment and she said he had the perfect diet. I was actually against him eating only salads everyday thinking that he'll need more vits. I guess. But what he does in case anyone is interested is he drinks plenty of water and only eats one huge salad a day with meat, cheese and a ton of other stuff in it. Our doctor told him the only thing she wants him to do is to eat a piece of fruit at night. She is actually requesting for him to come back in a month so she can chart his progress and so far he lost 100 pounds. She said she is going to start his diet. Isn't that odd. :)
