Gym Buddy

Still wroking on getting the pre-op weight off....down about 10 lbs. so far, I have about 17 more to go. Does anyone go to the Planet Fitness in Concord? I could use a gym buddy after work. Thanks - Xico

when would you be going?  I work in Concord, so it would be possible for me. 

Hi, thanks for responding. I am looking to start on Monday and Thursday nights, around 5:00 pm and work out for about 1 hr. on the treadmill. I go slow right now b/c I am still new to moving. It sounds like you are more advanced than I am. Eventually I would love to go on the other machines but I need to work  a little bit to be able to get to those...I currently have back issues b/c of the weight, but can walk. Planet Fitness on Fort Eddy Road is the closest to me. I have gone there a few times but motivation to get there is hard sometimes. Let me know if this would work for you.- :-)

 I go to PF in Concord!!!

When do you go? I am starting up next week, trying for at least 2X a week....treadmill at this time only for about 1 hour is my goal...do you go regularly? I could use someone to be motivated with.

Xico,

I'm all over the clock with my schedule however would really like to get more into a routine (and I know having a buddy could certainly help with that).  Right now I go 2-3x's a week and I walk the treadmill and do weights.  I'd love to meet up...

Are you on Facebook? 

Cathy, maybe you and I could get together one day a week also.  I want to get back to Jazz on Wednesday nights too!

Hi Cathy Gott Lambie:

Sadly I am not on Facebook..I know, I know I just haven't gotten a chance to get into the social networks yet. :-) My nephew says I have to get this the times!

Thursday January 6th at 5:15 I am meeting Bamma at Concord PF at 5:15. I am hoping to set up a Monday and  Thursday weekly schedule for treadmill. I think just meeting at the PF will be motivation not to skip....I posted to Bamma at  the bottom.

If you can make it that would be great. I am really excited, I am working very hard to lose the initial  weight to get to the surgery goal!

Hope to see you Thurs. or if not, perhaps on Monday 1-10-11! - Xico

I could definately do every other Monday and every Thursday.  I could use those days as my cardio only days and do weights other days.  I get out of work at 5:00, and I work right up the road at 2 Delta Drive, so I could be there by 5:15 at the latest.  I did not bring anything for tonight, and my meeting is next Monday, but why don't we plan on Thursday, January 6th.

Hi Bamma:

Yahoo, thanks, this is good, and will help to motivate me not to skip....Thursday January 6th at 5:15 works great! I will be there- will change and can meet you at the funky  "yellow hand chair round table"....you know, by the front desk where you can meet with a trainer?

If for whatever reason you can't make it just send me a quick post. Looking froward to meeting you...thanks for agreeing to be a gym buddy!  - Xico
