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!

      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.
