Reply from Liz, Age 18 - 01/26/03 - IP#: 144.136.144.xxx did you know that if you walk a distance and run a distance it burns the same amount of calories? this is because although you work harder with running it takes a shorter time. If you enjoy running then go for it. Make sure you get some proper running shoes and do streches before and after. Start with 5 mins or whatever you can handle then build up. If you enjoy it do it but I suggest that you do an exercise you like. If you dont enjoy it you wont stick to it. I hate running but love walking and ive been doing it almost every day for the last 2-3 years. a good tip is you could take a walkman/sports radio or your dog with you, I do that cause then pple dont give you this look like "oh shes trying to lose weight" its "shes walking her dog" sounds stupid but i feel people do put a label on you when you diet and exercise. Good luck!!

They say in 10 days will make you feel better, in 20 days you'll look different, and in 30 days you'll have a totally different body. I think it's gonna work!
