I have been back to the gym for just 3 weeks now, so although I answered truthfully about working out 4-5 times/week...It hasn't been that long! Just sayin' !:smile:

What is exercise?

Walking from the couch to the bathroom and back is exercise. So, I'd think everybody exercises every day. :smile:

I haven't been in a gym in over 5 years or done a real "work out" in probably just as long but I exercise every day.

I jump on my treadmill 7 days a week, usually for 50 mins and I really push myself to get a good cardio workout - walk at max incline. I also walk my dogs everyday, but that's not much of an exercise - slow pooches. Now our hot Texas mornings are feeling just a little cooler I want to start riding my bike again as well.

I try to do a structured workout at least 4xwk. By that I mean I do the elliptical, bike, walk on the treadmill, do weights, etc. at the gym.

Other days I do other activities. I'll play with the kids, trying to do more running and jumping types of things, take them to the pool, go bike riding with the family, etc.

I try to do something active every day, as much as I can. Some days it may only be 30 minutes.

I was doing the treadmill at home about 5-6 days a week. I liked that okay but needed more. I joined a gym about 2 months ago and now do elliptical, treadmill, and lift weights 5-6 days a week. That 1 or 2 days I don't go to the gym, I usually at least do the treadmill at home for an hour. My body is transforming, but I'm afraid the gym may not do all I need (I'm going to do my best), but I don't have money for plastic surgery.

My current schedule is as follows:

Sunday: Cardio and Weight followed by 30 mins swimming

Monday: 45 mins swimming (average 350 meters)

Tuesday: Boxing (6-7a) and Swimming 8-9p (average 300 meters)

Thursday: Boxing (6-7a)

Saturday: House and Yardwork

Added boxing in order to punch through the plateau from hell:cursing:.

I exercise 5 days a week: 45 minutes of pool walking, 30 minutes of Water jogging and then joint exercises for OA of right knee. If I can't get a lane in the lap pool to walk, then I jog in the warm water exercise pool for an hour. Before surgery, I never exercise and now I can't wait to get to the pool!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
