Shouting from the rooftops!!!!!!!!!



Recommended Posts

I feel like shouting......"I LOVE TO EXERCISE!!!!!!"

I knew you all here would understand!!! I just wish that those who are trying to do this all on their own(with the band's help) would let go and let exercise!!!! LOL...I love it, and I love it , and I love it more everyday!!!! Deanna

Dont you just wish you could impart that feeling to those that really struggle with exercise.

People think I"m mad, but to grind myself into a sweating wreck is my idea of fun, lol. I love to exercise HARD. I've come to rely on it as my form of relaxation and head time, I need that endorphin rush.

And it truly is the secret not only to losing weight but more importantly to maintaining it.

I get a high from it. It feels so good. I feel very accomplished when I do it.

The smaller number on my scales made me exercise more. It was like a domino effect.

It helped my band so much.

I agree with both of you so much. I just wish everyone would see the benefits. I know its hard to start, but just start and do it for two weeks. You will be hooked. I always see people saying "I don't have time to exercise".....these are the same people who probably have HOURS of time at the computer and the tv!!!! Get up and move people. Your body will LOVE you. Deanna

I am in total agreement with you all. It's fantastic that you get so much in return for the time you invest in it. I mean, you burn calories, you look better, you're taking care of your body but even hours later YOU FEEL SO GOOD!

Yee Haw!

Yes Juli, that is what it is all about all the GOOD things that come from it. WHY would people NOT want to do this?? I know...it is the getting started. If they would just get started....it only takes a few weeks and then YOUR HOOKED!!

This is something I really need to work on. When I was young I loved exercise I loved to work up a sweat. But now I loath swetting unless its in a steam room lol. Like I said Im working on it I've been walking just joined a gym and have been working out at least 3x a week Im just hoping that feeling of love for it comes back to me. Cross your fingers for me or send some of it my way hehe

Eva,

You are at the stage where you just need to do it. I know it sounds so nike.

But the thing is you are! So try to notice the small things that feel better. Walking with laundry up and down stairs is my thing. Before it would be a trudge. One day I was going up the stairs and it just wasn't like it had been. Now I notice it all the time!

We're sending good exercise Ju Ju right now!

      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.
