Last yoga class.... not sure what to do now



Recommended Posts

Today was my last day of yoga classes. I have been doing it for months and could not stand it. Bittersweet moments [emoji30] what am I going to do on Tuesday & Thursday nights now? Can’t think of anything else besides the gym

I kinda like yoga.

We actually have a board that is especially for fitness and exercise discussions:)

It's over here:

My husband and daughter went to spin class awhile ago and they really liked it. My husband wasn’t in the best shape at that time so that’s really saying something.

There are also lolo apps on iTunes. The company is lolo. Apps can be purchased (low cost) and viewed on phone, iPad, etc. each app runs through a series of exercises which are shown on screen. Music can be added and timed. There apps include “7 min workout,” “bootcamp,” etc. You may like those. [emoji272]

Aww I love myself and my progress so YESSSSSS I will continue to take pictures of my body and post them any other suggestions that are helpful and not hateful?

Wow! If that’s not the pot calling the kettle black I’ll eat my extra large shorts (that no longer fit) & save myself a trip to the goodwill. 😂 😂 😂 😂

Read a book? Do a good deed? Brighten someone’s day? Learn a new skill? See a movie? Knitting/crocheting? Volunteering? Working for a political cause you support? Taking a music lesson—instrument or voice? Art class? Art appreciation class?

You said you couldn’t think of anything but the gym....so giving you some jumping off points!

I love yoga! But it’s not for everyone. I made a bunch of exercise suggestions to her over there on another thread hopefully she will read those, but she said she couldn’t think of anything other than the gym so trying to give her other ideas here!

Jess if I ever need fitness training advice, you are one of the first people I'd ask. You're a treasure of experience and insight in that particular topic.

How weird is this? My dog training club does dog yoga....where you do poses with your puppy. It's sort of hysterical, and probably couldn't be called real yoga....but everyone laughs a lot and the dogs seem to enjoy it:) Some good stretches.

      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.
