Have you excercised today?



Recommended Posts

Do you excercise and if so for how long and what do u do in your workouts. I know that getting up and moving is way better than doing nothing. I really need to get my motivation back in regards to working out. I have a twisted way of thinking that when i get banded i will be this super chick that will run on the freekin treadmill everyday for like an hour and such... which im sure is poss. but because of my boob factor.. uhhhh no..lol... I would have to wear 2bra's and 3-sports bras to keep them from smacking me in the face...lol.... but really... I haven't really truly worked out in like a month or so which is truly sad.... when i do workout i normally do the elliptical for like an hour and do my abs, arms and such.. I despise squats... :wink2::cursing: but i know they will tone my fat butt.... Are there any excercises that u enjoy? Plz help me get movin.

I havent gone today, but am meeting up with friends at 11 for a 2 hour ride. I have started using the Trikke, which is a great all around exercise machine, plus it gets me outside to enjoy the day. Normally, i get in at least an hour on it, plus weight training nightly in the house. When I was first banded, walking was my exercise of choice and i just kept adding things from there. It really makes a big difference with the weight loss.

Have a great day.....Dave

Yep! went to the gym today and exercised for approx. 70 minutes (arms, legs, squats, ellyptical). Spent last 3 days without moving my butt, so it was high time I did something for myself.

No pain, no gain!

I am not banded yet,I am waiting for my surgery date. I am currently walking my dog for an hour a day five days a week. Also, I have just recently added going to the gym after work 2 days a week to walk 30 mins on tredmill and use the weight machines.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!

      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!
