October 07 Exercise!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Smalltowngirl40 0]

Exercise is the key, I had my surgery a year ago, my anniversary is Oct 30th. I started working out with a trainer about 3 weeks before my surgery and I still am, and she kicks my butt. But it works, I am down from 320 to 208, and firming up every week. I walk and run 3 miles a day now, and work out with her in the gym 3 days a week. You will start out slow, but within a year watch out. Good luck

Well, I'm feeling slightly better and I'm thinking of going to spin tonight. I haven't done anything since last wednesday. I feel like a lazy slob!

Well had step aerobics class and it was lovely with the new shoes! I also got brave and actually put a level on the stepper thing. If you know what I mean, so it was a little tougher. Man it was a good workout

also did my 50 crunches before class.

Awesome Whos, now theres no excuse!

Di, I'm a 9, but in some shoes a 9.5. I'll bet if I go up to a 10 in sneaks I'll feel much better. I completely loosened up the laces last night and I still had slight numbness. I think the next pair I buy I'll try the 10. I also noticed it on the elliptical too.

Oh yeah, 60 min spin last night. My knees are killing me today!

Well did 20 minutes on the eleptical last night..guess what...still got numbing feet!!..although not as bad. I don't get why this is happening. I'm going to have to talk with my trainer. Also did circuit machines for 25 minutes and 60 crunches

Off on wednesday..thursday spin class!

Dibaby- Did you also try gel inserts in your shoes or running socks that are padded. These help me with my feet.

Yeah i have some special socks but no gel inserts. I think that would take up more room. anyways I think its just something odd with me. I used to have this with my hands when I would do alot of walking. They would swell up like sausages. That doesn't happen anymore. So I dunno. I think I'm just a weirdo

That is really weird, my hands would super swell whenever I walked anywhere! It must have something to do with the foot numbness...

Well I figured it had something to do with the blood rushing down my hands from walking. If i did keep my hands up it was far better. Now I sort of hang onto the treadmill or eleptical so they are elevated. I dunno but its really annoying. Glad I'm not the only one with the hands thing.

Wed, 10/10 - 30 mins, treadmill, 1.8 miles

Hey ya'll! I've missed you. I was off yesterday, so I made sure I hit the gym. I felt wonderful! Oh how I've missed my exercise!

I have a job interview today, so I may get to cut back on these crazy hours I've been working...then I'll get back to my regular exercise routine.

Good Luck Chim!!!
