[Whitepants 0]

For all those who are looking to connect with others from our area. Need to connect to others who can relate to what we have enbarked on to improve our lives. Also looking for, gym partners, motivation partners, same goal weight partners. Hence the word "partner". Connect here and see what may come of it.

Although, I prefer to exercise alone at the gym, I like the idea of a NYC Lapband meetup group that focuses on fitness activities and common goals.

The Parks Dept offers a range of free and low cost fitness venues and activites. Such as bouldering, sunset yoga, horseback riding, skating, etc.

I hope some of these ideas can facilitate the process of gathering NY bandsters. Good Luck linking people up!

Wow, Gwen, you've done fantastic! When & where were you banded?

I'm a card carrying couch potato, and excersise has never been high on my list. But now that I've lost a bit of weight, I am enjoying more activity - mainly walking.

I'm thinking of getting a WII - something I can do at home. Have you ever tried it?

I'd be interested in staying in touch, and maybe working my way up to some light activity.
