[quote=Anonymous]OP, I'm having a similar struggle. I've realized that with working from home, I'm losing out on a lot of calorie-burning activity I'd normally do in my day to day, like walking to go get lunch, taking stairs, etc. I first really had to tighten up my diet to be that of someone who is completely sedentary. So not just eating healthy, but eating much less. I've also cut back to one glass of wine a week for now. That's been step one for me. My other problem was that like you I had limited time and opportunity for exercise. I caved and ordered a Peloton. I was walking, running and hiking but just couldn't get into a groove with it on my own. I needed help increasing the intensity of my workouts over time. I LOVE the Peloton app for strength workouts. And I'm someone who hates exercise. I ordered 10 lb weights and those plus a yoga mat is all I have needed to get started. My Peloton bike comes in a couple of weeks. I'm starting to get excited about it. I've never loved spin classes, but given how good the instructors are on the app, I think I'll like this. Plus it's going to help a lot that I can get dressed, on the bike and finish a workout in 30-45 minutes. Right now I'm strength training with a 20 - 30 min full body workout 2-3 times a week. My plan to start is Peloton ride 2x a week and strength workout 2x a week. Good luck![/quote]
