Exercise What Kind Do You Do?



Recommended Posts

I do lots of different kinds of exercise walking, running, boxing, weights, cross training, stairs as well as having a personal trainer. I am trying to get in 2 sessions a day, one at the gym and intensive, and then another walking (I can walk from work to home about 5kms). I cant imagine going on this whole journey without including exercise. I feel I will have earnt the results at the end. i also find helps with keeping toned while I loose (touch wood very little skin almost half way through).

I do a Zumba class once a week and have been doing it since I was 4 months out. I have added a Pilates video, which I'm hoping will tone my arms and legs, strengthen my core and improve my balance which changed SO MUCH after all the weight loss. I'm thinking about doing the C25K training and I would love to get back on a bike. However, I have this horrible fear of getting on and immediately tipping over. I will have to get a little more confidence before I give my neighbors a big laugh. Also, I want to roller skate again, but see the bike fear above. Sigh.

I have been using my Elliptical now up to 25-40 minutes and I mix it up. I just got Country Dance 2 and used that today, whoa it kicked my "u know what". I am excited for tomorrow :). Hard to believe I would be excited for exercise.

Usually 5 days a week.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
