Nymph's July Exercise Challenge



Recommended Posts

Anyone want to join me in a exercise challenge for the month of July. I am not sure how to run this but I think something like pick how many hours that you plan to exercise for the month and update each week.

Think positive thoughts about how your going to look...and what size you will be. I lost one whole dress size in a month doing Water aerobics...This week I lost 2 lbs. not sure what's up with that because I have been slowing way down must be the exercise catching up with me. I never thought I would say that love to exercise but this Water aerobics thing has been awesome.

Everyone! Listen Up! Take your measurements because at the end of July lets see how many inches we have lost....that is another great NSV that we should ponder on....

I am going to be the Cheerleader this month and cheer you all to victory!

Cindy, I've added aqua aerobics because I haven't been for the last 6 weeks (Winter here). I love it and it really does work.

Oh No Sades...I was asking because I love it as well. I am addicted to it. It is my time and I enjoy getting there and working out. You don't have to do more.....LOL

I never thought I would say that I love anything to do with exercise.

That's great to know Cindy. I'm amazed at how addicted I get to walking. Aqua is great as well. I feel invigorated after each session. I think it's harder for me to keep it up because my classes are in the evening after work and I can't always get there.

Exercise had taken on an entire new meaning to me after surgery. I don't detest it now, in face like you guys i get more enjoyment out of it now than I ever did before. I will take my measurements for sure! I like those nsv!!! have a great day all... off to walk the dog.

Sades-

I know what you mean because my Burn Baby Burn classes are on Tuesday & Thursday nights at 7pm and don't finish until 8pm. I am usually flying high after the class and can't get to sleep until real late. I hate that it is that late and am sure during the fall/winter it will be harder but I do like this particular class because I get a lot from it. We will see for now it is a joy, wait for a few months when the newness wears off and than I will let you know. For now, I hope to get my booty in shape. I want to be in the Bikini next summer.

Well you're well on the way there Cindy. We'll expect a photo soon. :angry: I know what you mean about being hyped up after a class. By the time I'm finished (shower & all) it's about 8.30pm, then dinner and winding down and before I know it it's after 10pm. That's why I only do it once a week. Walking is different because I generally do that before work or at lunch time, much easier to handle.

OK, you guys are just wearing me out with all that excercise talk. I'm exhausted just reading your posts! Think I can burn off a few calories by osmosis? :crying:

Now where did I hide the elliptical? :thumbup:

      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.
