Any One Up For an Exercise Challenge?



Recommended Posts

As a freedom-yes-as exercise? Yeah right! How are you feeling Lisa? Have you been taking it easy and letting yourself heal?

Well, the kids are out of school this week so Brittany and I are committed to go to Curves AM and PM on the days that they are open this week.

My wound closed up one day, so I didn't exercise. But it opened again so I walked Friday. But I didn't get up of lazy butt this morning. I guess I'll just always have an open wound and no port, but things could be a lot worse!

Way to go Leatha! :banana

I have found if I come here to post each day, it makes me want to do the exercising just so I can post that I did it. I have never been good at getting exercise in, so maybe this is working for me. I can also tell the difference in how strong my legs are getting.

Like you said, even 5 minutes is better than none. I hate going out in the cold too and probably won't exercise at all if it weren't for my treadmill when it was cold.

I used to watch tv on my recumbent bike. It works great. Pick something you like or put in a movie and pedal away. I moved mine to the bedroom, though, so I need another tv -- yeah right. :D My son is supposed to give me an old portable dvd player so I can use that for movies.

I think you'll like the bike, Leatha. They are very comfortable. :D

Great Job One and All!

Curves this AM-Weighed in Last night-no weight off but I have lost a total of 9 inches since I started. Body fat went down 2.6! Slow but steady wins the race right? My legs are getting firm-now If I could do something about this large tire around my middle!

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!
