I am truly inspired. Jacqui...I LOVE the aerobic housework idea! I hate housework, too, and this would let me kill two birds with one stone...exercise and get the work done fast. KelinTx...it's good to know that I'm not alone in having gone through the pain of exercise at my weight. Yes, my back kills me just walking a short distance, and I'll have to start slow. I'm on my fourth day of the pre-op liquid diet (ugh) and am trying not to let myself think too much about the procedure. At the same time, I'm trying to gear myself up to take on the mental state post-op...not so much the diet as the exercise. Just hearing from you really helps. You are angels!

Thank you so much for your replies. It sounds like to start with, I'm going to have to motivate myself within the safety of my home. :smile: I will check out the links that you've provided, as well as googling the "chair exercise" lead. I wish that we had an "aerobic dance for fatties" class close by....I always liked to dance. Maybe I'll check out the old Richard Simmons Dancing to the Oldies CDs. :cursing:
