I've been lazy with the exercise lately.

I need some motivation that will kick my ass in gear.

The past 5 days I haven't done ANY exercise.

Usually I at least walk 2 to 3 miles a day. Blah

go to the Y (or thru work or your local city park) and sign up for lessons of some kind. join a team and DIVE IN.

i hate "exercising," but love to go out and PLAY. find someone to play tennis with or find a court that offers a tennis ball machine (then you can just PLAY without apologizing for being a begginer or for being slow :frown:).

looks like you spend a lot of time on line. maybe you can challenge yourself to spend at LEAST as much time MOVING your whole body as you do wiggling your fingers on the keyboard. Balance is the key to everything.

now log off and go PLAY!! :smile:

join one of the exercise challenge threads.

there are some great people that encourage you when your down & lift you up when needed.

it's also great accountability, if that's something you need.

find something enjoy doing - it then doesn't feel like a chore.

cheers~

Waht do you do when your "being lazy"?

I use do it to. Then I noticed 50% of my lazy time was sitting watching TV. SO, I got a treadmill and put in front of the TV. I watch 1hour of my shows and get 3 miles of walking in.

Go on and be lazy. The weight will fall off all by itself. How's that for sarcasm?

Just give yourself an end date for the laziness. Like I get one more week then I need to get real so I can achieve my goal.

the challenges confuse me or i probably would. I got some new exercise videos today. Been sick so havent been doing much just a little walking, waiting for the sun poisoning to stop kickin my butt.

Can anyone explain the challenges to me...would appreciate it. Thanks for the motivation.

so froggi - the challenges are the ones you set for yourself.

at the beginning of each month you decide your exercise goal - and everyday or several times a wk check in to rpt what you've done.

go drill down into those threads to see what's posted to get a better perspective.

if diet is also an issue - you'll find it's very easy to make healthier food choices if your active consistenly.

Maybe you should sign up for Water aerobics. It is low impact and you still get some exercise out of it.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
