Did my first lot of exercise this afternoon since goodness knows when! I thought my heart would give out at first but I'm still here so that is a plus!! Only did 30mins on the treadmill and about 80 odd situps plus all my warm ups and cool downs. Thought that might be a good starting point for me! No point rushing in and going all gun ho and then not wanting to do anything tomorrow! Even though I am a tad sore at the moment - damn I feel good!
awesome chunkydunk...walking for 30mins is awesome to start you should be proud and those sit ups well you do more than I do in that department I HATE ab work lol
@ chunkydunk: i've been doing sit ups for almost a year now since i started my weight loss goal.at first it was bloddy hell and painful on my back.but maybe i got used to it and is now part of my daily routine once i wake up. remember, do not do sit ups after eating, it would be bad for your intestines.
You have to find some sort of exercise that you really love and you won't find it a chore.
I love walking. I walk up hills down hills I go hiking I just love it. It has been really hard for me for the past six months because of my hip bursitus but I've kept it up because I love being outside.
I went for a walk today and experienced no pain, that injection has done the trick.

I think maybe a week or two. I've still got three ampoules of kenacort left so I guess that means I'll have to get more injections at some stage. If I had of treated it properly in the first place this would never have happened. Oh well

Actually I over did it (I'm really an expert at overdoing things) and now I have sore legs. That hasn't happened for a very long time because I'm pretty fit.

OMG - why didn't anyone tell me that sitting on a fitball would crush your abs and just about kill you?!!!!!!! :) No need to do situps, an hour sitting on the fitball at work took care of a week's worth of situps! I feel like I have been punched in the stomach but Mike Tyson (must mean it's working huh)!!! Wow, what an eye opener. I only got the fitall to help with my posture, guess my conscious knew something I didn't - LOL!
Belle - stay positive hon. Think of the pain as a temporary hurdle and that you'll overcome it. I know you will I have faith in you.
I used to have a fit ball until someone blew it up (probably one of my cats). That's good that your getting fit from just sitting on it.
I'm going for another walk today chunkydunk I'm a very tough lady. I've had a lot of things wrong with me and have been in massive amounts of pain but I still soldier on so having sore legs is nothing. I was just having a bit of a whinge that's all.

You are allowed to whinge Belle - it's a woman's perogitive!!! Besides I'm here to listen.
I've been reading your posts and why you are in pain and honey my heart goes out to you. You are one tough lady and an inspiration to me that's for sure. But don't think that there is something wrong with you, because there isn't. Think of all of this as challenges in your quest for a new life. With each challenge there is going to be pain and heartache BUT you will overcome it. Trust me I know you will. And every time you succeed it makes you stronger and more determined.
Worked was the pits then when I got home all I wanted to do was sloth. I got stuck into some water crackers with french onion dip, had a glass of wine (was planning to drink the bottle but "something" stopped me), ate dinner, watched TV (never exercised), fought with the other half, went to bed cranky, had a crap night's sleep and woke up with a headache this morning!
Well done on getting into your exercise routine chunkydunk! It's amazing how good it can make you feel, even though it feels like torture at the time. Not to worry about your 'bad' day, it's out of the way and now you can just focus on your goals!
Had the day off yesterday and felt so terrible for not doing anything! It's amazing when you finally focus on your goals and if you skip a day, just how bad you really feel!
@ chunkydunk: it's normal to have bad days sometimes. especially for us women. i hate it when suddenly i feel sad.then i remember it's the time of the month.i hate it sometimes when i have mini tantrums. Goal: 36-24-36 with AcaiSlim
