Seems Like Life Revolves Around Exercising And Food



Recommended Posts

do you like running/jogging? maybe try signing up for a race. it will give you a goal to look forward to and it's more about having fun completeing the race and less about "ugh i need to exercise today" if you know what I mean. that sometimes works for me! (and i dont even really like to run!)

I do like walking and really want to get myself to where I can run. There's actually a 5K in my town next month that I want to do. I walked it last year and would like to run it this year but its a good day if I'm able to run half a mile straight :). He did it to me again a little while ago. I did go out and do an hour in the elliptical and he asked me if I exercised I said yes I did an hour on the elliptical his response was "that's it? Why? Kinda weak wasn't it?" I told him that's all I felt like doing, he seemed like he got mad. Before that I was feeling pretty good with myself that I even went out and did the hour :(

Does your Xbox have the kinect? I use mine to workout and they have several different Zumba games.

It did but the kids sold it to get a game :(. I think I'm gonna move the DVD player to the garage/gym and break out my exercise DVDs :)

I agree!! I am only doing 30 min 4 times a week. You should be proud of that hour.

Finding the time to exercise is the hardest for me. I have an in home gym. I set up a flat screen with DVD and dvr for my fav shows. Sooo I have to watch them on the treadmill. I do this three times a week for an hour. Makes me feel great and I always wonder why I fight it so much. I've come to the conclusion it's my fat cells trying to stop me lol. I get bored too. Now that the weather has been sooo nice I've been walking the neighborhood. shake it up when it gets boring. In Austin we have tons of hike and bike trails I take advantage when I can. Don't give up!! Don't let the fat cells win!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
