Led an Aerobics Class Today!



Recommended Posts

I'm pre-sleeved, but I've been working my tail off to get back into shape. Once upon a time I taught aerobics, so today I gathered some of my co-workers and friends, dusted off my old workout music, steps and mats, gathered in a friends hanger and led a 50 minute floor and step aerobic class! Plus an extra 30 minutes of resistance band toning & abs! I'm on such a high right now. We agreed to get together 3 times a week... I hope I can keep up the momentum!

That is great!! OMG even after 6 months I don't think I could make it through a whole aerobic class, let alone lead one!

What a great thing to have the others commit to a workout schedule too.

I know! I'm so excited that I have the endurance! And I think having an obligation to meet others expectations will force me to exercise even on those days when I don't feel like it. I remember having those days in the past when I taught aerobics as a job, but the obligation to be there forced me to workout, and the high kicked in during and definitely after the workout.

      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?
