Bowling!

Daisalana · January 30, 2008

I am NOT a model bandster when it comes to exercise. I reluctantly admit time to time, that I can not get my lazy self into the gym. I work somewhere that has a full company gym.. like 20ft from my office. Yet, the only exercise I do.. is walk my dog around the block when I take her out now, and I always park far away, take stairs, etc. The minimal things.

I am not bragging, I wish I had the commitment, motivation, etc. everyone that is out there and DOING it has!!

But, I am on a bowling league. We bowl once a week. And I have been losing steadily since they fixed my port. Without my exercising :tongue:

I had to take 2 weeks off for whatever reason, and my weight loss has stalled. HMMMMM.

I have tried to calculate exercise-ness of bowling, but it's varied all over the place. I use a 16lb ball, 3 games, and it seems to be helping me! Just that one time a week.

So my point was, for anyone else in my boat, who can't seem to motivate yourself.. join a bowling league (OR TWO.. I'm going to join 2 next season)!

It's a lot of fun, and apparently a good way to get exercise!

Did you have to wait 2 weeks after your surgury before you could bowl again? I am a bowler and haven't asked my Dr. how long til I can bowl again after surgury. Where do you live? Congrats on your weightloss

Well before surgery, I had to quit bowling for 2 years due to the back pains I had from being overweight. I had surgery in April, back problems had stopped around July.. and I started the fall league in August. I think 6 weeks is how long you're suppose to wait? I would ask your doc!

I live in Alabama.
