Working on My Back
Lately my back has been in serious pain. To try and help the problem I started doing yoga, but after a while I slowed down because I get easily bored with the same workout routine over and over. That's why I wouldn't mind a gym membership so I can workout on different equipment. Or maybe investing in some home equipment like an elliptical.
However, right now we simply can't afford a gym membership or any kind of extreme workout equipment, so I'll continue to look for different exercises for my back. A twitter mom suggest doing some form of pilates so I was thinking of looking into that.

Strengthening My Back and Taking Out the Garbage
This past week I started doing yoga for my back and I feel great! I've only done the workout a few times too! How insane is that? I can imagine what my entire body will feel like if I start doing yoga for more than just my back. Wow. I started the exercise routine, simply because I needed to do something about the pain I've been having there.
A few years ago I was working as a CNA and because I was told to do an entire floor by myself, I ended up lifting a person that was more weight than I could manage and it did something to my back.
I have not been to a doctor about it because I cannot afford insurance and the time has elapsed for my husband to put me on his at work. So I've been dealing with the pain. There are times when it's very hard though. I can be doing something as simple as changing the trash bag in the trash can and it will put my back in severe pain.
So, this past week I was in pain again. Instead of baring through it, I went online and looked up exercise for strengthening my back. Of course yoga wasn't the only exercise there was for it, but since it's the only one that does not require tons of expensive workout equipment, I decided to give it a try. And like I said, Wow. It's been great! So I will continue to strengthen that area and hopefully it will improve.
I am also considered eating a little better. Lately, I've been eating tons of junk food. I can definitely tell a difference at how my body has been reacting just from the breakouts on my face and the sluggishness in my body! I've had very little energy and it's wearing me down inside and out. So I think it's time to take out the garbage and get my body back into a healthier shape.
What do you think? Any suggestions, ideas that work for you?

Fitness Goals and My Back.
One of the goals I have in my life is to get into shape again. For about two years now my back has been giving me serious problems. Any time I bend over for any amount of time, even to do laundry, my back is in serious pain when I try to straighten up. As a matter of fact at times it's hard for me to straighten back out. Not good.
My back isn't the only area I want to strengthen. I noticed last Friday that even walking has me out of breathe. While I am not overweight and in need of dieting aids, I think I could use a change in my diet as well.
I guess for some, dieting aids like pills can help, but I'm not one that likes to use pills to help me in my goals. I believe that losing weight and getting into shape naturally is the best way for your body to be healthy.
Not everyone will agree with me however, and for those that don't, doing your homework on the pros and cons of various diet pills is a must. There are too many risks out there associated with certain pills and your life isn't worth the risk of not knowing.
You need to know what the claims are behind the so-called best diet pills and whether or not they are really worth it. Do your research and be safe, please.
If a diet pill works for you and it's safe, then that's great. But, for me, I'd rather not take that risk. I'd rather get into shape naturally. What about you? Do you workout? What do you think of diet pills and other weight loss aids?

Saving Due to the Economy
So, when a company has a great deal to offer like, DealKing.com's $20 cash back when you purchase an AT&T prepaid no contract phone through them, it's worth it in my opinion! I mean, who couldn't use some cash back! Deal King is also great for finding coupons on your favorite stores and brands. Saving is what it's all about and we could all use the extra savings right about now. Don't you agree?
