No legs/cardio last night, lazy:frown:.

This morning, 3.1 miles @ 1% incline in 30 minutes. Followed with 10 minutes of walking and 15 minutes on elliptical.

Tonight, I will try again to get legs in. We'll see.:cursing:

As you can see in my auto sig, I am 1 wk ahead of my goal of 10 miles/wk. Knees are holding up GREAT!

Yesterday: 60 minute treadmill 4% incline for 3.40 miles jogging and running.:cursing:

Today: 60 minutes of slow walking 5% incline 2.68 miles. Really sore on my left hip.

Lulu: Get back into the swing of school is so hard, but once you find your rhythm, I have no doubt you will complete your program.

I just need to find my rhythm, so I can turn in my thesis and argue it in front of the oral board..so close...:)

Today I did my first "New to the Sport" workout. It was a coached bike ride. I sucked. :cursing: But I had fun. We went for 16 miles and, unlike my typical rides, there were hills.

Afterwards I dropped my bike off at the bike shop because I'm sick of the front derailer not actually changing gears when I press it. Plus, it became very clear that my seat is too low.

Great work by every one! Today I got busy for the first time in months. 20 minutes on the stationary bike and 20 minutes on the treadmill. I actually jogged for five of the 20 minutes in 2.5 minute intervals. First time I've jogged in over 25 years. Felt great!

Hey, guys, I just returned from our girl's day/night out and for the first time I played Wii. OMG, it was so much fum. I bowled a 180. I have never bowled. And I boxed, which worked up a sweat! I am addicted.

I went to a swim clinic. We swam for about 1 hour 30 min and I got to see a video of myself swimming where I realized it looks like I never move my feet. Hmmm.

i'm a bit hooked on tennis & golf right now.

DH bought tiger woods 09' golf & i'm hoping it takes a few strokes of my "real" game...LOL

also if you like yoga - that is another decent activity on wii.

today - heading to the gym will do an hr of cardio: treadmill/stairmaster.....as soon as i can find my running shoes - have a dog that likes to hide them on me.:)

      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.
