What To Do On Weekends


o00

Recommended Posts

I own a horse so spend my weekends at the barn.

If you like animals volunteer at a local shelter. The dogs always need to be walked.

You could start horseback riding as an adult.

There may be other volunteer opportunities at the library, nursing homes, food pantry, homeless shelters, local rec center.

If you look around Facebook you may be able to find local clubs for hiking, biking, walking, rock-climbing, geocaching, bird watching, photography, kayaking.

I see ads on Craigslist for work-out partners at particular local gyms. (m4f workout partner at Final Results in Anytown, CA). As long as you meet at the gym it should be safe. You can put an ad on CL for a same sex work-out partner at your gym. Ask the personal trainer at your gym they may know somebody.

Our local school district has adult education classes- most are during the week at night but they have some trips and classes on Saturdays.

Not to be crude........but my weekends are all about resting and recouping from the workweek.......and keeping the bedroom lively.

Occasionally, I'll throw something on the grill to gnaw on.

Life is good.

I know this is sedentary, but I started reading more and coloring the adult coloring books. With something in my hands, I keep myself busy and don't get tempted to go into the kitchen out of boredom and grab something to eat

I got my license to carry and plan to do some shooting practice to keep myself busy and hands occupied, away from the fridge!

      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!
