What Exercise Did You Do Today?



Recommended Posts

We've replaced sitting at home in front of the TV every night with going to the local YMCA and working out/swimming.... all 3 of us!! Going to Zumba for the first time tonight....cant wait! then meeting up with hubby (my daughter is out of town with her school group till Sat) and working out then swimming. We both feel much better....and I must say we're a little more frisky after our workouts too!!

LOVE THE GYM! (lol)

Walked and jogged the neighborhood. First 5k in 2 weeks. I'm a little nervous. I will be walking lots, but I'm feeling pretty proud just doing it. Hopefully by next spring ill be able to run one without stopping.

So proud of you!! I was planning on a 5k in Charleston, SC April 6th ... but I have to work instead! But I will be more than ready for next years 5k!! hopefully at goal and can actually RUN!

5 miles on the treadmill uphill, weight circuit, and sauna

I have a question for you.... what incline do you use? how long does it take you to do 5 miles? what weights do you do and how long in the sauna....(have you tried the steam room as well?)

Sorry to be asking so much... but I could use the help in getting my routine in place.

I started my incline at 4% and increase by 1% each week....it takes me about 60 minutes to do the 5 miles walking and running, weights it just depends on what I'm doing for my upper body I use 5 to 20 pounds and legs I go up to 50 to 80 pounds, 12 to 15 reps and I go into the sauna 15 to 30 minutes just depends on how I feel. You have to set up a program that you're comfortable with. When toning use light weights and do a lot of reps per set and get at least 30 minutes of cardio. You have to listen to your body and push yourself...set goals each week.

      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. 🤞
