Did You Move to Exercise Today???

There has been a lot of conversation about what we eat - even to the extent that we are logging in our meals. But here is a question - did you move to exercise today? Ouch !!! I will be heading out for the gym in about 30 minutes for a 70 minute cardio session - bike and cross trainner - as I am still healing from my surgeries in June. Did a 70 minute session yesterday too . What about you????????? 2 1/2 years out and I am still trying to work it - Debra

Debra, Now that I've just completed my first year as a post-op I am focusing on fitness and exercise. I did a 30 minute workout at curves earlier tonight and then came home and did an hour on the elliptical. Burned up over 500 ugly calories! I have decided I WILL get below 200lbs and I WILL get to goal (164lbs) - now whether my body lets me stay there is a different story but I'll find that out then. Keep up your good work! Take Care, Terry

You go girl. I have decided that the exercise component is the way to maintain weight loss. I still don't know where I am going to end up scale wise. My doctor has told me I have made goal -- but I have a personal number goal in mind for myself. However, if I don't lose another pound I am satisfied with my current results. Trying to stay healthy for my new phase of my journey "reconstruction". You will meet your goal - with your level of excerise and determination. Go get it!!! I like to say that I am still a "work in progress". Debra

Hi Debra, To be honest, I didn't do anything extra to exercise yesterday, but I like the idea of this post on the month board each day. Let's try to keep it up, even if we haven't done something, it's good support and motivation! Hugs, Mo

Oh my Mo -- then I have to be accountable. And don't we all like that word - accountable . Will give it a try. Whoo!!! Whoo!!!

Great Post... because it all boils down to less calories in than out... I think that's the way it goes... I don't know... . I found exercise to be my saviour from early post-op to almost three years. It changed the shape of my body. So, Today I did a 30 minute cardio warm up before my 45 minute spinning class. I also added an extended lunch and had a deep tissue massage. I am learning to incorporate massage monthly into the equation... Oh, and even exercising daily, I have to watch what I eat to just maintain my weight... protein, water, vegies... you get the picture. Happy exercising! /Lisa
