March Exercise Challenge



Recommended Posts

Hi All,

I did one hour of cardio and one hour of weight training today (arms/upper body).

I'm headed up to Miami tomorrow for a "stateside fix" and to meet with a few plastic surgeons. I plan to get some workouts in while I'm there, but I probably won't be checking back in for a few days.

Talk to you soon :thumbup:!

Alright I am not flaking out on exercise, but I am on doctor's orders to not exercise until we can get some of this fill out because I am really dizzy, light headed and feeling like I am ready to pass out because I have not been getting any kind of nutrition lately. So I am taking the next two days off of work and going to the doctor to get all fixed up but then I will back with a vengence. So I too will be away from the computer for a while. Everyone else keep up the good work. I am actually missing my workouts!

I have been enjoying the beautiful spring weather. I don't count horseback riding as exercise, but that's all I've done the first half of this week.

I did my 40 minutes/5K on the treadmill today, then upper body workout.

Salsa, I hope you feel better soon. Take care and take it easy!

I got in strength training today. No cardio. :( I had a busy, busy day and family coming in from out of town.

I haven't changed my ticker but I'm down 3 lbs from the last update! :embaressed_smile:

Hi everyone,

Did my 4.5 mile walk today. The scale didn't budge this week. Don't know why but I will try harder next week. I am going to drop the calorie count to 800 per day and see how that works. Hope you have a great Easter!!

I'm back from my sick bed. Did cardio and strength training yesterday. I've got to get with it or I wont make my challenge this month.

Jody, you are doing so good! How are you liking exercise these days? I think I've finally learned to like it - or the way I feel afterwards anyway.

Becky,

I am getting into the exercise big time! The scale is not moving though. I just can't seem to find the perfect combination yet. I get discouraged but posting has helped me tremendously. I will track faithfully starting tomorrow. I don't know what the issue is with me. My clothes are big, the inches are coming off but the scale is not moving. I wish I could be more like you Biggest Losers in the Crazy Ates!!

Jody, I'm sure that you are replacing fat with muscle since you are doing so much exercise. That would explain why the scale is not moving even though you are losing inches and your clothes are getting looser. As you build more muscle your metabolism is going to function better and the pounds will come off. Try not to worry about the number on the scale. It is just not a very accurate measure of everything that is going on with your body in this phase of weight loss. You are doing what you need to be doing. Great job!

I finally got my cardio done for today.

I was back at the gym and it felt FANTASTIC! I did an hour walking yesterday and then 2 hours at the gym today. I will be out of town again tomorrow through Wednesday but the friend I am going to visit should be a willing jogging partner.

Yeah and I can eat again. Actually I feel like I just felt right after my first fill...NOT HUNGRY! It is an amazing feeling. I love it! We will see how long it lasts!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
