Thinking of my options



Recommended Posts

I want this weight to fly off me like yesterday. I know that's not going to happen but I 3 weeks out. I need to make a decision about exercise I felled so many time at the gym. My question is do I give it one more try or buy the insanity video and hip hop abs do a little walking and work it out that way. I need thinner thighs lol ;)

Just do something! Like Nike! Start by walking to the corner and back. You do not have to go to the gym to get exercise. Increase as your stamina builds.

I don't have the videos I was trying to figure if I should purchase them or go the gym route.

Any kind of activity is good. I like to walk, preferably outside. Though on rainy days I will resort to the elliptical in the garage. I also have a stretchy band and some hand weights. There are all kinds of things you can do without going to the gym. I've had some videos as well, but I do better when I can go outside and "get away" from things at home. It's harder to quit that way too. If I am a mile away from home I have no choice but walk back home. If walk an mile on a treadmill and I get bored I can easily hop off. I've even thought about dusting off my bike and going on some bike rides with my daughter this summer. My only advice would be to experiment until you find something you enjoy. Have fun!

Ahhh ... I agree Experiment until you find something You like. ..I like them all and in the past. ..after the novelty wore off they collected dust including the gym membership. .. that however. ...had other reasons for that. .. I'm excited to not let anything collect dust this time. .. wish you the best

Any meaningful exercise is hard....otherwise what's the point....you just have to get it into your head how beneficial it is fr you to get out there and do it...then after a spell, you will begin to see the amazing things that are happening to your body and your health...both physically and mentally...then you're hooked, cannot get enough, which only brings about more amazing results...which means you want even more....and so on and so on....

There's a reason you see people out running or cycling everywhere you go......

I walked last night for an hour and it felt great. I didn't think I could walk an entire hour without stopping.

Find a gym that offers free classes :)

they're not mutually exclusive. You can do Zumba some days and go to the gym some other days. As a matter of fact, you can exercise anywhere specially at the beginning. It's up to you.

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
