Hi Rose,
thank you for being so honest with us. I do not know why, but since I moved to LA, I have the same issue… Cannot get myself to the gym. First issue that I noticed is car. I spend so many hours in the car to drive for work, that going to a car for another “work-ing out”, is so unmotivating for me, like I do not want to sit in that damn car again… Driving car to the gym is a big obstacle for me, especially here in LA. And when I get to the gym, it is so boring and unmotivating for me. So I am just looking for something new and fun, what will catch me, and will be no more just working out, but “funning out”, like your friend Andrea Albright says…

Hi ladies,

Schedule a session or two a week with a personal trainer. It forces you to be accountable. If you have a scheduled appointment that is prepaid you are more likely to follow through with your workout. Also, having a workout partner is helpful! Good luck with your workout goals in 2010 everyone!

Hot Yoga! It’s GREAT in the winter months b/c you’re actually excited to go when it’s cold outside!

If dairy has been pasteurized (which 99% of it has been) then for the most part, it is not good for you. You can’t really absorb the calcium in it, so you’re better off eating green veggies for calcium. I drink lots of almond milk that I get from the health food store, and I like it better then milk now! I have this great free article about the dangers of dairy here: http://www.rosecole.com/articles/gluten-free-and-dairy-free/energysabotager.html

I use lots of almond milk and rice milk, and I never miss dairy products anymore. They even make almond cheese nowadays!

Have you tried the dairy and soy free purely decadent coconut ice creams? They are sweetened with agave nector and are yummy for a special treat!

Dairy makes you tired? I personally don’t like the taste of milk but my parents make me drink it because they say it’s good for you. I’m confused now. Is it good for you or bad for you.

Thanks for sharing! I’m so confused what I can and can’t eat – I have hypoglycemia and need to eat lots of protein, feel better when I eat healthy and don’t crave too much sugar. But I love cheese and use milk all the time. How do you switch over to not using those items?
