Work Out Pants



Recommended Posts

I wear sweat pants and t shirts! I am there to work and sweat and do not care who sees me!! And at my gym most people are wearing the same stuff. Go get your sweat on and don't spend a lot on the clothes !!

I just discovered lululemon athletic wear. I got proper hot yoga gear and it is fantastic. Better still, I got into a size 10 in shorts and size 12 in tops.

My first gym membership was at a studio set up with ceiling to floor mirror that ran the length of the building. Now I have membership where the mirrors are only in the free weight areas. I was 460 pre-surgery now 360, so I am still the biggest Guy in the gym. You want flexibility and air flowing so that perspiration cools you off. It may be a Guy thing but focus on the work you want to get in and not the mirror ..that comes later. I use Reebok tops and shorts. They breath and dry fast

Even at 144, I'm self conscious about my appearance.. I liveeeeee in yoga pants work and gym (work has an extremely lenient attire code, heck my hair is blue!) I L-O-V-E danskin, have since I danced and excited Walmart carries a line and dirt cheap since I'm still going through sizes every few weeks. During the warmer weather I only ever wore their capris and now that its colder I wear the yoga pants. I do admit I went to Models and bought a 40$ pair of Adidas pants and they're much more comfy, but too expensive and don't hide the cottage cheese thighs like danskin Lola's far as tops, I just wear cheap 5$ thin v-neck fitted tees (walmart, target, wet seal, etc) with a kohls tank underneath (also about 7$)

So....i tried the weight/workout area. I decided it's just not for me at this time. Doesn't mean it won't be in my future. But what's funny is obviously my issue isn't that I care about what people think of me. (Because they don't, and I always knew that!) Now 3-4 times a week I prance around in a bathing suit!! Oh yeah! Flaunting my cottage cheese thighs. :-) I've discovered that Water aerobics is 'my thing.' Even do water Zumba. Now that's a challenge trying to get my hips to move in ways they haven't moved since I was a teen. ;-)

I think that finding your "thing" is the most important part. Buy you some dumbbells and do weight work at home. You can find tons of arm workouts on Pintrest. ( I love that page!) ill have to try Zumba water! Sounds like fun. I have no rhythm and am quite clumsy though :-/

That's the plus of being in the Water...no one can see your clumsiness!! It's great.

Well I started out with wal-mart sweat pants, lost 36lbs and don't want to buy more yet so I took 4 inches off them and can still take more in. I'm not there to show off, I want to get my workout done and go on with my day. It helps that I go,to curves and no men are allowed.

So where did she get them?

I saw them at Sports Basement and they actually had several different multi colored, artsy shoes.

I'm sorry I just saw this!

At Finish Line! They had 5 different kinds/colors. I am going to be rocking a pair soon! Acics are great workout shoes. But NO ONE tell Nike I'm cheating on them!

      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.
