2 more days!

Actually, it's more like 1 1/2 more days. I finally got my surgery time--10am on July 28th! I'm getting more and more excited!

 

I was thinking about how I'm going to exercise after the band. I got to looking at P90X last night. I know lots of people who have been using it and they really love it! I'm going to look at the forum after I'm done with this entry to see if anyone else is doing it. I've read and heard reviews that it's great for beginners and advanced exercisers. The Insanity workout is also a candidate. I just want something that is going to help tone, not necessarily gain muscle or anything. I've also seen that the P90X nutrition plan is favorable to LAP-BAND® patients because of the protein intake.

 

Anyone reading my blog have any suggestions? They'll be greatly appreciated!! :thumbup:

    You go first my time is 10:30am July 28th (insert scream) So excited! I'm in Washington & your in Texas (I'm guessing) we might be miles a part but were on the same journey. Best of luck & hoping you have a speedy recovery. Let's compare notes when were up to it.

    I'm in Kansas and I am having surgery at 10:00am on July 28th, too!!!! I am getting scared but there it no turning back!

    I am going to start off on the Wii Fit (step aerobics and boxing). I may need to look into the P90X though.

    Yes, I'm in Texas! It's almost unreal that the time has come! I haven't been worth much at all at work today due to the excitement level! I think this time tomorrow I'll be sleeping, hehe. :)

    Best of luck to you as well!! :)

    I've been using the Wii Fit for my pre-op exercise. Some of the activities are challenges but that's mostly because I'm just uncoordinated, lol. I think I'll stay on the Wii Fit for a couple weeks and then work on the P90X. Everyone I've talked to simply loves it. :)

    Good luck tomorrow!!! :):biggrin::)
