  1. just imagine your beating up your insurance companys president. I was always trying to guess which one was his daughter on there. But he will spank your butt! I just couldnt stand getting up in the morning and doing it in my underwear while the cat stared at me the whole time thinking 'what the HECK are you doing crazy human?' But it did make me sweat. Go Billy go Billy. Double time time now.. one ..two...three....four.... I just like to be in gyms where i can see everyone else suffering with me.
  2. hey seroiusly look into thr Sansa CLip from SanDisk. Almost as small as a shuffle but it has a screen and a radio built in!!!! I cant belivie this thing and best thing is 1GB is less than $40 in Walmart!!!!!!!!! The 2GB is is only $60!!! I love it!!!! Kicks Ipods butt! Voice recorder too. Going to hard to find then soon.!
  3. i did Tae Bo once. they are pretty hard but good. I just cant do the whole video thing. Its a good place to get started. I am all about our YMCA. Yeah at 205 u should be able to exercise pretty easily. Look at my fat a## on the treadmill but you just got to do it.
  4. yeah shes right! i was watching the biggest loser the other night (i dont really like it, too much crying) And this one guy was sooooooooooo dissapointed with ONLY losing 6 pounds in a week....thats insane!
  5. looks they way doesnt it. i cant hardly keep up. geez if i had to work i would have all kinds of trouble. Sorry for taking over JowJow. but we realy do wanna encourage you. o lunchtime:) yepeee
  6. Yeah my loss has REALLY slowed to and im eating right and exercising like a mad man. But its all good for you!! i got my 4 week doc weigh in tomorrow.
  7. my doc checks me every 4 weeks too to see how im doing and see if i need a fill. i too had one 6 weeks after surgery and then every 4 weeks 2 so far. I try and remember this is all about long term. As an overeater im soo used to instant gratifaction and exercise and eating right are not always instant gratifaction.
  8. i dont think there is ANY fooling u JM!
  9. aww thanks. Was a nice thing to say.
  10. yeah my Y has a parents night out once a month too. Woo hoo. Its only $10 for the whole night! You are sooo right about the guy that called back on Sunday. thats exactly what he did im sure.
  11. O i have you soooo fooled.
  12. lol thats funny. Come on Di we got to live vicariously (had to copy and paste that word from JM) i cant work out my stupid comco locker in the Y. Its embrasing. She asked if i got it right and as i didnt want to seem dumb i said..oh year i got it....now i m screwed no way i can ask foor help now
  13. you can do it JM...i just know you could do week 4. Welcome back!!!! I was getting lonely here. And i need the latest report on Dibaby love life.
  14. OK. When people say they have no time to exercise its not really true. I mean you have time to shower before work..time to clean your teeth things like that because you make time for it. You can make time for exercise too. Think of exercise as something you just HAVE to do. I mean people HAVE to go to work and they accept that. Nobody wants to go to work but you just HAVE to. Same with exercise. Aside from the fat losing benifits you are extending your life!..After about age 35-40 your muscles start to natually get lose and dissapear (depressing huh?) Well they will sag and dry up like prunes if you dont exercise them.....Your hear is a muscle! Eventually its going to fail..if you make it strong by exercising it is going to last waaaaaayyyyy longer! If you dont exercise it most cardiologist KNOW its going to fail pretty soon after 40. But these days they can keep you alive with it failing by just drugging it along. I dont want that! Start SLOW! Swim 20 mins...do the awesome C25K programe but do SOMETHING. Hope this might help. O and exercise produces long term results not short term. Exercise for 2 months and not much diff will be seen but exercise for a year and wow!
  15. ok you asked for it, here is a pic i took last week on a buisness trip in West Viginia.
  16. Karen---i HEAR YOU! ....i get that way too. im going for my 3rd fill tomorrow. My wife (banded also) said it took her to her 4th fill and EVERYTHING changed. the first 3 minths she had a hard time losing. After the right fill its FALLING off now. Hang in there. It takes a while to get there but keep exercisg the whole time. i feel like i have been same weight for 3 weeks now. Its really hard to tell. i count my belt loops. That helps. Have to get a new belt soon!....hmm hom about one of the glittery silver ones...look good with my buisness clothes.
  17. What the heck? where did everyone go????????? Better get your butts back in here in start exerciseing. I know you probably had party weekends....well its BACK TO WORK! lol Today (Mon) swam 1 hour. Hot tub 15 mins mmmmmm
  18. ok..i was exremely nervous starting week 4 today. I got though it ok!! I can tell i have come along way in 4 weeks (did week 3 twice). 5 mins is a long time to jog but slowing it down REALLY helped. I figure i can pick up the speed much later on.
  19. When i started i was walking 3.6 and jog 4.8. Did that for 3 weeks and killed my knees! way to fast. I thought i was going to have to give it all up. Found if i walk 3.5 and jog 4.4 i could get thorugh it and i would be able to walk the next day.
  20. My gosh week 4 looks crazy. Well i am going to give it a shot today.
  21. well i already swim bike alot. got to work on the run.
  22. losing... you GO!!!!!! Hpw insperational!!! there is a Triathlon at my YMCA in Aug 08 i thinking of trying for
  23. Man i just got back from my WV tour from work. We did Huntington, Beckely, Tridelphia (that Cabela's place was great!) then Hurricane and i drove back to Columbus OH for my flight. I was thinking it would be really cool to meet a bander!
  24. o I nearly forgot...Friday i did week 3 last workout. Second week i did week 3. I think i am going to attempt week 4. As far as the speed thing goes...FORGET IT! i was running at 4.8mph i was suffering in the knees so i slowed it down to 4.4mph and 3.5 walk and it REALLY helped. LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  25. JM i hear you about the overtime . dont panic you will be able to work on it. You what i hear you about the running thing! Keep it up! I am about 2 years away from being anywhere near to a runner but it does really appeal to me! Ok today : Well last night i took wife and girls to Wisconsin Dells which has huge indoor water parks. All night friday and all day sat we ran up stairs to tube slides and jumped around in the huge wave pool for hours. Thats gota count for something!
