Can We Count This As Exersice



Recommended Posts

Can you call working for 61/2 hours sanding a door & side light be consider exersice. And that's just the first sanding still have to sand a second time then stain and seal it.

I can't wait to get back to work next week. My honey-do list was done 2 weeks ago. Now I'm just looking for something to do

Absolutely! I really love the term "active lifestyle" specifically because it has such a broad scope. We often associate it with running or jogging or (fill in the blank) - and as a result a lot of folks never try to have a more active lifestyle or worse yet, attempt a form of exercise that they aren't ready for and soon abandon. There are enormous health and weight loss benefits in countless sustainable activities. Shopping, mowing the lawn, vacuuming, visiting a theme park, walking the dog, cleaning windows, washing the car, and of course just taking a walk. The options are endless and every single one of them counts!! Adopting an "active lifestyle" means looking for and embracing every opportunity to MOVE. It does NOT have to be synonymous with working yourself to exhaustion!

The last 3-4 weeks I have completed the honey-do list that I have been working on for years never enough time to get to it all. It is now complet and a few other things to like the front door. My energy level is higher then it's ever been.

      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.

        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!
