I am definitely up for an exercise challenge. For the first week of July my goal is 20 minutes everyday. Most days, I have exceeded goal and completed 30 minutes to an hour. I found I am more likely to get moving if I know I only have to do 20 minutes.

Whatever works best for you guys...I'll check in periodically and update the chart. I will be out of town July 13-23, so there may not be any updates during that time, unless I have wireless internet where I'm staying.

go to tickerfactory.com and create a ticker.

When you get to the last step, cut and paste the bbcode from tickerfactory into the "edit signature" portion your profile page on lapband talk

I need this real bad too so here goes......I pledge to walk or do the gazel 4x/week for at least 20 minutes. Maybe it will help with this burpy problem!

Good Luck to all of us

Musicalmomma, thanks for putting that chart together!

I was feeling so lazy earlier today...I just wanted to lay on the sofa and watch bad TV...but I got off my ass and went for a 30 minute walk outside (in the 90 degree heat of Miami Beach, AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!). It wasn't a LONG walk, but I just took a shower and now I feel great. It's the best feeling when you don't want to work out, but you do anyway.

Lucy...you CRACK me up! Miami Beach? How cool is that?!?

      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.
