2 weeks of working out



Recommended Posts

It seemed like I was so tired all of the time. I have had the band for about 5 months and lost about 50lbs but still lacking energy. The last two weeks I have been going to the gym and spending a minimum of 30 minuts on the tread-mill, and most of the time more.

I have not weighed myself for the last two weeks but will do so this week. I do feel much better, less tired and I'm hoping that the increased time at the gym has also encouraged some additional weight loss.:)

Good for you Tod!

We ordered a treadmill (I've been excitedly telling everyone) and it should arrive on Friday. I have been dragging so badly. So tired all the time, but all I do is sit. Duh.

It's been a fact for many a century now - you get back what you give out. Expend energy, get energy.

Can't wait to get out of slug-dom and back to the living.

And 50 pounds in 5 months! You rock!

You will, love the tread-mill. I have been watching the old t.v. while working out and this seems to help make the time pass. The other night I did a one hour weight/cardo class...they say it burns about 700 calories. I'm going again tonight. Thanks so much for the reply, that was really nice of you.

I recently converted my garage into a gym. I spent more than $15,000 on my stomach, so I figured a few grand on a gym was a reasonable accessory. I bought a top of the line NordicTrack treadmill (a serious powerhouse), a new stationary bike, a new elliptical machine, a home gym (bench and cable system), swiss ball, dumbbell set, and most importantly a 21' TV with a DVD player and cable. Awesome! I am having a lot of fun working out, and because it is close (in my own home), I can use it often with great ease.

That is awesome! Exercizing really helps. I have a recumbent bike right in my family room - have to trip over it every day. With it staring me in the face, it is easier to get motivated. Having it right in front of the TV helps, too.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
