2 miles this morning. 5 total so far. Now I get to put on a suit and go to a wedding for people I don't even know. Wedding reception food is always so healthy......NOT. Worst part is it's one of those "no booze" kinda weddings. Seriously, how do people get married without booze? I don't even drink but a wedding makes me wanna start.

Have a great weekend everybody.

Day 1: 4.5 miles of walking. Super painful hips by evening however, not sure whether to blame the walk or Thursday night's attempt at running. I have bursitis in both hips and I'm worried this flare up was caused by the run.

Color me not happy. :-(

Wannabe fitness freak here! I'm 30 pounds from my goal weight of 199 and i have a consultation for my TT December 3rd, so I'm kicking it into full gear this month. I cant think of any goals to set for myself aside from losing about 15 pounds this month. I'd really appreciate some ideas. I started cycling the other day, taking a gander at the couch to 5k thing, and I've started to use the punching bag at the gym. I do 80 squats, 80 jumping jacks, 100 crunches, and 80 leg lifts...5 days a week. Can you guys help me with picking out a goal?

So I could be totally wrong but I think you're totally on the right path to overall fitness and stamina. How about increasing the 80 squats to 90, and add 25 crunches etc? Just beef up what you're already doing by a little.

I want to run my first 5k next year so I'm going to start jogging as part of my walking regimen. This morning I jogged 3 minites intermittently. I want to jog 5 minites straight and walk for 20.

You guys are an inspiration. My surgery is in 3 weeks. I look forward to being able to exercise. Right now, walking more than 10 minutes is exhausting. I also have COPD and asthma, which I am hoping improves after weight loss.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
