Jumping Jacks January!



Recommended Posts

I made a jumping jacks challenge for January - I loved doing them last March (on Tumblr), but I had to start off at a much smaller number than it had wanted since I'm heavier than most people wanting to get "fit", (it started off at 50 and went to 200 jumping jacks by the 31st)

I wanted to make one for people like me who may want to do it also.

Share if you’d like, keep, or print ^_^

Oh awesome guys!! :] I'll check in on this topic weekly then, just to see how everyone is doing. I usually have to do sets of 10/15 - at 260 jumping jacks are pretty simple and energizing, but my knees can't always take too many in a row. Glad some others are going to get use out of it ^_^

Did mine too! I had hurt my back but it only hurts to bend over, so I was able to do them - and after sitting all day long (from the back injury) I was eager to pump them out since I had some energy to expel! Was winded also, but felt great!!

Checking in! Haven't been breaking them up, but I did have to skip yesterday due to some major back issues - saw the chiropractor and am back on track! Winded like crazy but doing them straight in a row! :D

Still doing these? Hopefully you've printed them out and kept them somewhere!

I wanted to ask - when are you doing your jumping jacks?

I find it easiest to get them out during the A.M. when I have some down time at work.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
