Wow, I am SO PSYCHED about joining the Y!! We have discovered a whole new (and recently renovated) world of activities and diversions. I don't know if all Ys are like this, but the one near me has state-of-the-art facilities and great hours.

Yesterday morning I took a "Back In Shape" low-impact aerobic class, this afternoon the girls and I went swimming (well, bouncing in the Water if you want to get technical), and any evening during the week both DH and I could work out while the girls are at the babysitting area. The babysitting costs $3.50/hour per child!!

I am totally ramped. Everyone has a Y near them somewhere. Check it out!!

Swimming is so cool

I live on a lake, even if its 32 in the Water now.....Thats nothing to you in Jersey.,

No I hav'nt been in it lately, It just opened for boating this weekend.(we own a boat) It was closed for a year and 1/2 to bulid a bigger ramp. Yes in the summer, thats an other story.. I'm in it, I love to swim.

Our city is builing an aquatic park and Olympic center, My DH is a top swimmer. Morgan Hill is bidding for Swim complex the 2012 Olympics..?

I'v been on the bike cycle lately....40 min+ when the kid is napping and after dinner. At least I'll have nice legs:D

I trully believe that exercise is a way of life, if nothing else.. Walk.

'That my motto and I'm sticking to it' :D

Today I was jumping rope with my 6 YR DH and counted to 40 non-stop. Did it!

I agree, Join a club, being around others that are motivated, its support and fun.:P :confused: :D

Good deal on Babysitting:D The rate around here is $5-

Keep up the good work.:(:D

RAMPED:cool:

Hee hee! Sorry, I didn't realize not everyone uses this shorthand. DH is "dear (or darling, or darn, depending on your mood) husband" and DD and DS are the same for daughter and son. These abbreviations are widely used on parenting boards.

Thanks for explaining the DH thing.

My only question is to Vera. When did the reserviors in Morgan hill ever get to 32 degrees. Don't believe her folks. The Water in her lake probably never saw 55%!!!

Hey Grant

I was breaking ice... a week ago, It was just explained to me if the outdoor temp is 32 the Water temp is about 58.

I'm keeping my pie hole shut.

Sorry

But I'm only 29 years old....

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
