EXERCISE TYPES



Recommended Posts

try zumba if you like to dance.

It is not my thing but it looks like fun and some of the ladies say they get a good workout.

I like doing classes, its something different each day and it pushes me to do more than I would alone- I get bored easily so I need a good variety- currently I am doing kickboxing mon and wed- total body conditioning on tues and friday- cardio sculpt on thurs, studio sampler(mix of step, kickboxing, and interval training) on sat and sunday is my torture day- cardio boot camp followed by total body condition.

Even with different classes each day, I think after a year I am getting too used to it and need a little change- adding an outdoor beach bootcamp class 2 days a week and running a 5 k 2-3 times a week

I'm not sure yet. I have an appointment with a hormone doctor in about a month and from there we will decide when to do the banding. I hope within the next three months though.

Keep me posted and all!

I've had the lap band since january and lately I haven't been exercising much. I need to get on that, but i will share with you what i've been doing when I exercise. I have an elliptical at home and have gotten up to 35 minutes and about 4.5-6.0 mph when I do that. I have a bicycle exerciser too and I rarely use that because I feel like it doesn't do enough for me but I have used it occasionally. I have dance work out videos and I enjoy those because I love dancing. I have an exercise ball that I love to use to do crunches, push ups and wall squats. =) I have lost 51 lbs since the beginning of all of this. =)

Hi There

I have just bought a Vibration Plate which is supposed to tone up flabby areas on a regular usage 3 times a day 10 min sessions... Good reports on the Exercises from feedback . Just a bit concerned on whether all this vibration will shake my band out of position.. Anyone know anything or can advise on this ,, I cannot walk far as I have a back injury but can use this which seems successful for others..

The Band is the issue for me? Help!!!!:huh:

I have permission from my lapband doctor and my reg doctor, and I haven't really started walking yet , but I am in the morning. I have my alarm set for 6:15 for watching the sunrise, drinking my first cup of coffee, the by 8 I am ready for my walk, 9 it is time to shower and dress for the day. Breakfast right after that. then I start my housecleaning, and after that I spend the afternoon out side in the yard working, By 6 I am taking another walk, after that I work out on my exercise equipment for an hour, then shower and dinner and rest the rest of the night.

I have 3 reminders on my phone and 2 on the alarm setting. I will start in the morning. I have to I am not really losing anymore. And I really need to.

I've had to change up my exercise routine a bit. I am now doing boot camp classes 2 -3 times a week plus jogging a 5k twice a week as well as my kickboxing twice a week and conditioning 2-3 times a week. Right now I have a hurt shoulder so I am limiting the amount of weight training im doing but increased the cardio.

Next appt May 16th

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
