Is anyone successfully just exercising to DVDs at home?



Recommended Posts

I just ordered the Biggest Loser DVD's on ebay.

Now that the weather has changed, it's too cold to walk very far with my dog. I haven't gotten up the motivation to join a gym. Shopping for a treadmill has overwhelmed me - it's such an investment and I just can't settle on one.

I haven't been working out regularly for over a month and my weight loss has started to slow because of it.

Thanks for this thread. I hope the DVD's work for me ...

I have a couple with Jillian (from the Biggest Loser) that are HARD! They're a very good workout. I got them from Lady Foot Locker.

I would like to get one like learning to salsa or something like that. Just dancing in place is a pretty good workout - I can feel different muscles working. Me and my little boy dance a lot lately - he's really getting into dancing, and it's so cute to watch him (he's 3.5 years old).

I've never tried any of the DVDs in the Tae Bo series that Billy Banks does but I've got a friend who loves them. I bought one today at Wal-Mart for like 10 bucks that I'm going to give a try. It's celebrity fit cardio but I must admit the selection wans't all that great. I'm finding it increasingly hard to find out work out DVDs.

I have actually found something that I love. I have not been banded yet, but found this and will use it after surgery. If anyone loves to dance and has playstation 2 - there is a "Dancing with the stars" dance game that comes with a mat that you step on to do the steps. It goes quit fast, is very fun, and makes me want to keep going because it is competative (you want to up your score). I have not been able to stop doing it. I actually sweat alot and have been very sore after doing it for an hour straight. Just thought I would let people know. I think they also have one for the Wii but not sure how it works.

      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.

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
