Topic: Getting Started On An Exercise Program

Getting in shape means Cardio conditioning, strength training and stretching.

  7 RECOMMENDATIONS FOR STARTING AN EXERCISE PROGRAM!
1.  Have the right mind set! 2.  Consult you physician. 3.  Pick an activity you enjoy. 4.  Stick to a regular time every day... write it on your calendar. 5.  Invest in the right shoes. 6.  Start Slow. 7.  Drink water... best fluid replacement   
WHY CONSULT YOUR PHYSICIAN?
It's important if you've been inactive, if you're pregnant or over the age of 55.  If you have a medical condition such as high blood pressure, diabetes or heart disease.  Your doctor may have specific guidelines for these conditions.
  WHAT ACTIVITY SHOULD I DO? Walking is one of the best forms of exercise. Easy, low cost, efficient, done on your time schedule, injury free. Walk inside or outside. Walk on a treadmill or indoor track. Water walking is also an option.

This is our last week for the Lap Band Losers Summer Challenge, gotta get this last week in!  I definitely will join another challenge and I am going to start a new one, but the focus will mostly be on exercise....my biggest problem.  I will post the info when I get it all together.  Have you joined any other challenges?

Hey Kristy!

This is so great, with my schedule I don't really have time to go to my monthly local support group. I didn't realize last week was the last week of the lapband losers challenge..lol. I had thought I missed the post and kept looking for it and realized that it was over already. Are you planning on joining another challenge?

Hi everyone!  I am so excited to finish my leadership training and have my group active!  I know there are often times when I needed support or had questions and my in-person support group wasn't meeting for another week or so.  That's why I wanted to start an on line support group.  OH provides lots of support as well as the people on the boards.  I think each week I will throw a topic out there and see if anyone would like to discuss it or if anyone has questions about it.  However, we can always chat about anything that's on your minds!
