September exercise challenge?



Recommended Posts

ROFLMBO - Leslie, you are too funny!:thumbup::lol:

I HAVE set off the metal detectors in the airport (years ago) with the underwires in my industrial-strength bras...usually they have a female security officer come over and when she runs the wand by my side and it goes crazy, we just wink at each other and they pass me along...:cursing:

I'm looking forward to the days when that DOESN'T happen any more because the 'girls' are standing up WITHOUT the industrial-strength cables and steel support system!

Although the leather dress I'm planning to buy does have steel boning in it...oh well, I guess you can't win them all!:thumbdown:

Last night 20/20/20 class - 20 minutes of stepping/20 of aerobics/20 of toning. We then have a cool down/stretch - class is for one hour. Kicked my butt - which by the way cramped in the middle of it. I must say I've never had a butt cramp before. I had my stepper too high - took out some of the "steps" and it was much easier. I could barely walk this morning - yea! I'm happy cause I know I did something...

I did sleep in - I was so sore. 5:30 a.m. wasn't getting it this morning. I was scheduled for my run this morning...but I'm going to the gym when I get off work today and running then.

Closed out September strong...keeping it going in October! :)

Last night, I hit the weights for 1 solid hour - bench press, shoulder press, rowing, ab work, inner thigh, etc, etc, etc. That's on top of my usual walk at lunchtime and to the train station at night...

Today, my legs are crying "Uncle" but I walked the DDog with family this morning, just got back from a walk at lunch. No walk to train tonight - there's a lap band support group meeting here at work on campus, so I drove today...

Do we need to start a new thread for the October exercise challenge, or shall we just keep posting here? :)

I'll keep my mouth shut since you haven't seen it yet.

But I will say that now I'm not so convinced about Ali's win last year. :) Which makes me sad.

I'll also say that I hate the brown team.

Okay, that's it until tomorrow! I promise.

:):ohmy: for real???? that would be bothersome as i really routed for her, and since i see her face just about EVERY day @ 24hrFit. they have posters of her all over the place.

oh and the brown team...didn't like them from the start. when the husband told the wife (don't know names) to clap, for those who won the slip slide race she rolled her eyes at him...then clapped. then i though he was an ass when discussing the vote......

Exactly! The clap thing bothered me, too. And last night they were laughing at a very bad time. They're rude -seeming, I know it is tv and maybe things are exaggerated. Who knows why, but they just bug me. I like Heba and husband (orange, I think), and the red team.

Heba started at the same weight as I was when I was banded, and I'm anxious to see how she looks as she slims down.

Glou - you're not alone! I absolutely freakin' hate that Brown team this season...they are rude, not team players, etc, etc, etc. :)

I so want to post more, but don't want to ruin it for anyone - *going off to look for the Biggest Loser thread*

And by the way - what happened with Ali? She was my shero from last season - dish, dish! :)

      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
