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.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
