Any One Up For an Exercise Challenge?



Recommended Posts

I did it! I exercised at Curves. I HAVE MORE GOOD NEWS!!! MY DOCTORS OFFICE FINALLY SUBMITTED TO THE INSURANCE TODAY. They wouldn't submit until they were sure they had EVERYTHING that the insurance requires. Since the Insurance office is in Dallas, they will receive it tomorrow!!!! Now, I just have to keep coming up with the money to pay my COBRA and bills. My husbands was laid off a few weeks ago and my substituting doesn't pay much. (oops sorry that is info for the winers club) Well, anyways one more step down.

Yeah, Lauri, you're on your way! Keeping fingers, eyes, and toes crossed for an easy approval. Now about your "husbands" you just mentioned....

Husbands...that's a good idea! I need one for fixing up the place, like painting and yard work. Mine doesn't have enough time for it all. But he's real good at the lovey-dovey part. :rolleyes:

I hope all goes smoothly for you Lauri. It might be just around the corner. :Bunny

Cookies and ice cream... is that a bad thing?

Betty, I'm glad you went to work, but I'm also glad you left early cuz this SuperBandWoman thing worried me. Now I don't feel like such a wimp. Then again, I'm the bad ass biker chick who got a sinus infection the first time I rode on the highway - achooo!

Everyone is exercising up a storm here. Michelle, three miles is a great workout. None of us should discount something we do as "only" because we're moving while our skinny friends are watching tV.

I am willing to take on the exercise challenge. I need these type of challenges to keep me inspired, especially about doing exercise. When do we start. I have a membership with a gym here in Fort Worth, Texas. I haven't been since May because I started working two jobs. But now since surgery I am going to make time if it's only 30 minutes. right now I will do the bike at my aunts house until I go back to my own house this weekend. I wasn't allowed to stay at home after surgery. My family wanted me to be with them.

Selecia, you can join any time you want! Anything counts that gets you moving. Just post what you did. I think that's really sweet that your family is taking such great care of you! Enjoy it while you can! Since you're a new bandster, you might want to take it easy on abdominal exercises until you get your dr's o.k. But there's plenty of other stuff you can do. Get you a pedometer. You'll be pleasantly surprised how much you walk and find yourself trying to do a little more each time.

Hi guys, your all doing fantastic! I walked in the woods yesterday for about an hour. Up and down hills, around ponds, that sort of thing. It felt really great but today i'm paying for it. SORE!!! OUCH!! I didnt stretch before I went out there and it sure does hurt! Lesson of the day....stretch before excercizing!!!!!!!

Guess I'll have to do it again today to work it out of me...yeah, now that's a challenge!

OK someone smack me OK? OUCH!! Not so hard Lisa. Dang! I have NOT exercised since I left home. I absolutely have NO excuse either. There is a rather NICE gym here in the hotel. There is a NICE indoor pool here in the hotel. I would set my alarm every morning to get up at 7a and go do an hour in the gym but just seemed to turn it off and roll over and go back to sleep. So I gotta make up for it this week by doubling up the rest of the days.

This has been such a hard few days what with the funeral and dealing with Mom. But I am flying home today. HOORAY!! I am sooooooooo ready to get home. I fear I might be making another trip soon though for mom and her health issues. If so then I will deal with it then.

So what have I missed lately? Who is doing what for exercise? I see alot of SEX mentioned on this site lately. I am sooooooooooo jealous. I don't know if I remember the definition of that word.

Yeah, Where the heck is Darcy these days?

Teresa, I want that pattern for the hat. I will post a pic of me in it when I get home.

Carol, I want the recipe for the marguaritas as well. YUMMY YUMMY!!

      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
