Any One Up For an Exercise Challenge?

Now that all of you are back from the Vegas Bash, and the rest of us Pity Party goers are up off the couch - is anybody willing or interested in participating in an exercise challenge?

I'm not thinking anything drastic - just more than what we're already doing. I think the goal should be for a 'heart healthy' 30 minutes of activity a day, at least 3 days a week. Anything more is a bonus and worth an extra woo-hoo from the group!

Anything counts - weights (Darcy), walking, bike riding (Marie), playing tag with the kids (all the Moms out there), dancing your a** off (Leatha and Lisa).

I know Penni wants to do a 5K here soon, and this would be a way we could all get going with our exercise.

I would love to hear suggestions, comments, any type of feedback.

Do I have any takers?

First day of yard sale down one more to go! Feels good to be out in the fresh air. I thought it would rain but it did'nt, thank God!

Dear Portless,

That sexercise thread sounds like something you need to do! You could pull that off. Just make sure to be careful trying to meet your daily quota your port site is still vunerable :cheeky

Second day of yard sale and it DID rain! I'm not complaining we got everything put up before it got soaked and made lots of $$!

All of this made for some good ol' exercise! I've paid my dues for a day or two or three :cheeky

Dontcha hate it when someone starts a thread and then disappears???

Well - I'm still here. I didn't go to the gym once this week - I was lazy lazy lazy. Today I did 3 hours of yard work - raking leaves mostly. I'm all sweaty and tired. I'm going to be sore tomorrow.

Monday night late I leave for a fill in Tijuana. I have a two hour lay over in Vegas - from 10:00 PM til midnight (hey - it was a cheap flight!) Don't suppose Lisa wants to come over and keep me company ......:rolleyes

Don't worry - I'm just kidding. It's a disgusting hour - but at least I'll get a fill!!

Then I'll realyy know what it means to be banded.

Good job on the exercise (sexercise) everyone. Wish I could say the same!!!

Hey Kimmy girl! Anytime is a good time in Vegas! Good Luck with your fill!

When I lived up north, we had to rake those leaves for about 3 weeks. I can tell you, I don't miss it at all! :D

Hope you get to do a little shopping or gambling while you are there.

Just checking in. . . I walked over 10,000 steps today (5+ miles) with the dog; good thing, too, because I'm not feeling much restriction and I want to EAT. Still eating better and much less than pre-band, still feeling great, but I'm waiting for that fill to kick in, since it's been 10 days. More walking tomorrow if the weather stays gorgeous. Have a great weekend, everyone!

Excercise will make you hungry...don't you ever notice you want to gorge after sex...:D
