Day one of Hip Hop Abs.

Day two is gonna suck. I used muscles I didn't remember I had. Hope I can crawl out of bed in the morning.

NONE! Help me. I need some motivation. My Dr. Wants me walking 40 mins. a day and on my best days, I have gotten close, but it's not routine yet. I can't fathom walking that much right now when I get light headed just walking upstairs at home or trying to load the dishwasher. I am 7 weeks out from surgery, but have had some complications that kept me in and out of the hospital for over 5 weeks. I feel like I'm just getting started. How did you all get started in the beginning?

It took me almost 2 months before I could do anything. I wouldn't worry about getting to 40 so soon. The doc means well but we know our bodies better. I remember only being about to do the elliptical for 10 minutes when I first started & now I am up to a hour. I am almost 5 months out. You will get there in time but don't rush. I did in the beginning & it set me back weeks.

It's tough but almost fun since it's kind of dancing.

Anyone tried zumba ? I'm considering it.

I'm excited for my Doctors appointment tomorrow 3 months post op. Down 87 lbs since my first appointment with the doc. Down 70 since surgery.

Knock on wood I've been blessed. I haven't had any dumping syndrome and not tossing my Cookies. But, I haven't had any breads, rice, pastas. I'm feeling good.

Went out and walked 4 miles and enjoyed the fall colors

Best part, going up the hill was not a struggle, not even huffing or puffing

[cynthia f 31]

Walked 10,000 steps

Here is a suggestion for those that are having a hard time making it to the gym because of work or whatever maybe going on in your life at the time. I have a stationary bike, a mini trampoline, mini stair stepper, resistance bands, weights not to mention several different work lit videos that I use here at home. It's cheaper to do this at home in my option and you can do it when you can a little more easier that way too. I'm 3 years post op now and I haven't stepped a foot into a gym.
