How are you exercising this week?



Recommended Posts

Just interested to see how everyone out there is moving.

This week I swam laps twice (Sunday and Tuesday) and then tonight I rode the bike for 20 miles.

I am eating a bit more now that I am exercising, but I am still stalled out. I thought the scale moved last week, only to see those two lbs come right back on this week. This is very frustrating considering I am not eating much AT ALL. Tons of Beans, eggs, etc. I just feel I did something SO drastic and that damn scale won't move!

So far I've only done 2 days of cardio this week...which means now I get to work out for the next 4 days straight. :angry: But it's my own fault...

Anyway, Sunday: 30 mins of Leslie Sansone's "advanced" 12-minute-miles DVD (= 2 1/2 miles) & about 30 mins of strength training (abs, legs, & arms)

Today: 30 mins of Leslie Sansone again & about 20 mins of strength training (legs & arms today).

I get disappointed with myself but I'm just getting burnt out on college so I make excuses to not do stuff I need to do. Senioritis big time!

Wish I had some advice on the scale situation. But I'm only 6 weeks out so I don't have any words of wisdom. :biggrin0: But keep doing what you're doing! Don't get discouraged! Keep working out, eating the good stuff, and you can't help but lose! We're here for you! :001_smile:

I haven't done anything more than think about exercising this week. I'm down with the crud and am traveling this weekend, so I'll have to start moving again next week.

My plans are to use my Zumba dvd, Jillian Michaels 30 day shred, and to do some walking/jogging with my puppy. Going to get started Monday when I am back home.

      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.
