You are so lucky to be living where it is warm. I just said to my husband earlier that is it I am done with the cold time to move where it is warm. I live in Canada so I have to bundle up when I go for my runs and put the bike on a trainer until the nice weather comes.

Topic: RE: Describe your exercise ability.

when i started to run i started with two minutes of running and one minute of walking.  Your energy levels do increase as you lose the weight. I hear all the time how do you work and train and I say first of all you have to want to do and enjoy doing it. There are days after you have been out for many years that you may not want to do something but once I get going I am glad that I am doing it and the energy comes. You will find as the weight comes off there is so much you will be able to do that you never thought you could. I ran a 50k race last year and never thought I would ever run. Life is great

Topic: RE: Is mall walking still a thing?

I know where I live mall walking is a big thing. In the one mall they even open up early so you can walk before the stores open and another mall have signs posted if you are walking the mall than please stick the malls and do not go through the stores. I would call the mall that is close to you and ask them. Great way to meet new people

Sunday...Easy.  Did a little pruning...Rode my bike around the block.

Monday...Weedeatted, mowed, and blew off my daughter's back yard.  She has a large lot.

Tuesday...Today.  Rode my bike.  Went to the sales yard/flea market...Got a massage.  Rode home, then rode to my brother's house (dropped off the family medical history...It's good to have for kids and grandkids).  Then rode to the coffee shop (got a 1/2 chef salad and hot tea)...I later will add more vegetables to the salad (it will last me 3-4 days sometimes).  Then rode to Walgreens to pick up a medication...Then rode home...About 5 miles total.  Later I plan to pick oranges off two trees at the farm.  And then pick up some brush to put in a recycle trash can later.

The rest of the week I don't know.  It looks like rain Thursday and Friday.  I'll play it by ear.  Brian

Topic: RE: Just starting out, looking for exercise I can do at home

Lots of bodyweight exercises can be done at home.

 

Lots of good stuff on youtube and cable....exercise along with the instructors on your television.

 

As already stated, though.....walking is your best bet while you are healing.  

Live, love and make the most out of what your surgeon has done for you...........live your life without excuses and without regrets.

That's awesome! 

I think it's definitely a combination of building your cardio endurance and losing the weight. Here's a link to a question I asked about running a little while ago. I think you'll find it useful.sorry my phone won't let me hotlink for some reason: http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/fitness/6014213/Question-a bout-running/
