I have been back to the gym for just 3 weeks now, so although I answered truthfully about working out 4-5 times/week...It hasn't been that long! Just sayin' !:smile:

Every day. I run or do boot camp about five days a week, but on those other days I'd at least go for a walk with my DH.

What is exercise?

Walking from the couch to the bathroom and back is exercise. So, I'd think everybody exercises every day. :smile:

I haven't been in a gym in over 5 years or done a real "work out" in probably just as long but I exercise every day.

I jump on my treadmill 7 days a week, usually for 50 mins and I really push myself to get a good cardio workout - walk at max incline. I also walk my dogs everyday, but that's not much of an exercise - slow pooches. Now our hot Texas mornings are feeling just a little cooler I want to start riding my bike again as well.

I try to do a structured workout at least 4xwk. By that I mean I do the elliptical, bike, walk on the treadmill, do weights, etc. at the gym.

Other days I do other activities. I'll play with the kids, trying to do more running and jumping types of things, take them to the pool, go bike riding with the family, etc.

I try to do something active every day, as much as I can. Some days it may only be 30 minutes.

I was doing the treadmill at home about 5-6 days a week. I liked that okay but needed more. I joined a gym about 2 months ago and now do elliptical, treadmill, and lift weights 5-6 days a week. That 1 or 2 days I don't go to the gym, I usually at least do the treadmill at home for an hour. My body is transforming, but I'm afraid the gym may not do all I need (I'm going to do my best), but I don't have money for plastic surgery.

Monday: 45 mins swimming (average 350 meters)

Tuesday: Boxing (6-7a) and Swimming 8-9p (average 300 meters)

Added boxing in order to punch through the plateau from hell:cursing:.

I exercise 5 days a week: 45 minutes of pool walking, 30 minutes of Water jogging and then joint exercises for OA of right knee. If I can't get a lane in the lap pool to walk, then I jog in the warm water exercise pool for an hour. Before surgery, I never exercise and now I can't wait to get to the pool!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
