Count me in!! I need some motivation and I'm reaching out. I hit the elipical for 30 minute of medium intensity and then did strength training, pushups/situps, etc. Goal...minimum of four times per week...formal exercise. More if my schedule allows it. No excuses.

Goal #2...get more focused on eating properly and watch calories. Eliminate refined sugars (ahhh cookies) and more of the carbs I have been taking in.

jmcambra,

Thanks! I'm really hitting the exercise hard because I have a PS consult on the 15th and I want the Doc to say I can have the belt lipectomy(lower body lift) this year instead of next. I have the $ now, as I just refinanced my house.

<p>Ok, I did it!!! I joined 24 hr fitness (right next to my house) I have NEVER EVER stepped foot into a gym before, so I am totally freaking out!!! I cant just let the $$$ i spent go to waste, so I need to go.. but really need that push to get over my fear. My fear is not from being so big and people looking, its from not knowing what to do once i get in the door, being overwhelmed by machines!! I even had a freakin nightmare about it-- im not even OCD!! but i sure feel like it..... LOL</p>

Ok so last night went out for a 45min walk with doggy and did 10 30 to 60 second burst of sprinting!!!!!

Doggy with short legs was less than thrilled. I was ecstatic. Not really the couch to 5k program, but I will definately do this much more often!!!

Dont worry Lisa, everyone had to start somewhere. Just ask people questions both at the gym and on here and youll find there only too happy to help. Explain to the people there youve never joined a gym and they will help. You might even get a free personal trainer session. It is important to learn how so you dont hurt yourself.

You can get books on how to do it too.

Tuesday : 50 laps in the pool. Tomorrow is weight trainning and swimming.

Go Jmcambra! Waht kind of Dog was it? Bet the Dog was shocked.

Okay Monday night...Step aerobics class...45 minutes

Also did 50 crunches in the stretch room with 4 other guys around me..LOLLL..was pretty funny actually with me on the floor. Also did a few machines before the class.

Welcome to the new people just starting out. Remember to we all had to start at the gym at one time and felt EXACTLY the same way. It'll be fine in a week when u get in the swing of it.

      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.
