Have you tried a Simply Fit Board



Recommended Posts

I've seen the ads on TV, and I'm wondering if it works. It might be a fun Christmas gift to buy myself. Thoughts?

I have seen them on sale at Home Depot and was wondering the same thing.

Any exercise and activity is better than sitting on the couch.. :) If you thinks its something fun and will keep you motivated to do it. I say why not...

My mother-in-law bought one of those and she says that every time she goes to use it it moves as she's twisting on it and it does not stay still and then she has to stop and get off and move it back into the center of the room and it's just a vicious cycle however on the positive parts of it she said she can feel the burn but when you're stopping all the time to be able to move it back to the center of the room you're selling yourself down and get it and which fact you're not burning all the calories that you could be now with that being said maybe she's using it wrong I have not tried it I'm afraid I might break it LOL

Yeppers. We have one. The moving around the house is because of leaning. You can intentionally walk around using it if you know how. I also get in a plank position (like a push up that is all of the way up) and put my hands on either side of the board and twist it underneath me.

Do you like it and feel it gives you a workout?

Does it need to be used on carpet only?

I have wondered about these. Does it wear your carpet under where you use it?

Keep posted folks. Love to hear some more real folks reviews. I think if you get the one from HSN you get a workout video too.

I love the SIMPLY FIT BOARD!! I've been using since January 1st. That was the day of officially being able to exercise. If you are not standing straight the board will move. The board is fun. You will feel the burn

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
