You guys will get a kick out of this. This weekend I drove my Mom to her best friend's birthday party in another state. Mom is 90. I was getting tired on the drive up, so I put my ipod shuffle on...It's all my upbeat workout music. Mom wanted to hear what it sounded like, so she put it on and was surprised that I had a lap band song on there. What? A lap band song? Mom doesn't hear well. So she started singing it in that overly loud off key way that we all sing when we have headphones on.... it was Donna Summers...."Lap band. Lap band for loooove. Yes it's my lap band lap band toniiiiight....."

hey jill!

i was doing *some* light stuff at about a week or so out...but do what your dr says. Walk a LOT, you will LOVE IT. When i get stuck i cant help but walk, its a fight or flight thing, and im all about the flight!

walk at least thirty min a day, You can even choose stuff into a 'thirty minute playlist" so you dont have to actually look at a watch, just hit play when you leave the door, and walk till the music runs out! I love ipod.

Thanks Lizr! I tool a great walk this am before work...a gorgeous day in Long Island. I would like to start to kick it up a bit, back to the gym, but who can exercise INSIDE when it's a perfect Spring day?

I don't know what I did before my iPod! It totally keeps me going.

Peace
