What’s Your Relationship with Exercise?

Exercise…it’s not the only thing that’ll make you lose weight after weight loss surgery, but it definitely supports your weight loss surgery diet. It’s a lot easier to get your workout in when there’s something you love to do, but not everyone does. What is your relationship with exercise?

  • True love. It makes me feel better, it’s helping my weight loss, and it keeps me sane. Couldn’t go without it!
  • Love-hate. I know it’s great, and I love it when it’s over.
  • It goes in the same category as medicine. Take my daily medicines, do my daily exercise, and try not to think about medicines or exercise the rest of the day.

Mark your answer and explain how you feel about exercise in the conversation below. P.S….if you haven’t yet found an activity you love, keep trying! Exercise can be great fun, and there’s something out there for everyone.

I try to exercise at least five days a week, usually by walking. If I put it off my son reminds me as he's my walking buddy.
