January Exercise - HAPPY NEW YEAR! :)



Recommended Posts

Weekly Report:

Cardio: 420 min.

Strength: 180 min.

Weight: 169 (Yeah!)

Today I had a killer work out, did 50 squats with 50 lbs again. It's getting a tiny bit easier. Saw the plastic surgeon and everything is a go. He said my waist size would probably go down 2 sizes. I'm psyched! Have a good day!

Okay worked out Saturday FINALLY! Was a killer strength training session. My god my abs hurt. I keep on hesitating to cough now cause it hurts. Anyways just about over the bronchitis thank goodness. Ankle is bothering me though. Didn't go Sunday. Tonight I already have my bag packed in the car for the gym so I will definitely go. No step class though like usual. I so miss it. Anyways weighed in Saturday. Gained a pound over the two weeks which isn't bad at all really with new years and everything. But still..gotta start going down again. Oh I won a pilates workout dvd and book in a drawing in my saturdays class. Between thanksgiving and xmas we put in a slip of paper with our name into a jug for every pound we lost..then we had the drawing and I won :eek:

Daddy gratz on the tshirt..thats soo cool..I had a good laugh with the candy machine thing. Someone is on your side for sure :)

Okay had some trouble with this site but it looks like its working again for me.

Okay Monday night just did the circuit training stuff..lots of crunches..and 20 minutes on the bike did about 5 miles i think. I keep on treating these bikes like spin bikes and they so can't take it. LOL

Last night I went to spin class. Can I just say once again I fricken LOVE this class. Ankle was bothering me though a bit. I just wanna exercise without having to think of something hurting..it's annoying

Hi guys..wow they changed the way the site looks..

Anyways went to spin class last night. It's always harder on thursday since I went on tuesday and I'm still sore..lol. Anyways I survived had a great time. Didn't get the crunches in though cause I was running late to class.

Hey Jess30. Don't be too hard on yourself. Really this isn't a race. Your body will change if you stick to exercising overall. Everyone has skipped a few days..or a few weeks even and its okay. If you stay focused on your overall goal your going to get there. Just remember that you can't expect to get there without exercise in your life. Hope you get some gym time in soon. :(

Well, hit the gym last night for my top rep's circuit on lower body. Then, up at 4 am to do the treadmill at home for 1/2 hr before hitting the gym when they opened at 5 am to do my top rep's circuit for upper body and another 50 minutes in "Cardio Cinema" on the treadmill. All told this morning, 5.3 miles and 1200 calories this morning on treadmills alone. I'm almost starting to think I'm getting obsessive about cardio:scared2:

However, after a bad weekend last weekend up north ice fishing, I've managed to get back to the weight I was at last Friday, 299. What a yo-yo week that was.

Keep up the good work everyone. Just remember if you miss a day, don't beat yourself up, just get back to it again. That has always been my biggest problem in the past.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
