@jeff20stone fab measurements! Go you!
What are you all doin exercise wise?
Joining the gym really has been the best thing for me so far. As I now wfh 3/4 days per week it means I get up and get myself to a class at lunch time or go for a swim. My fitness is still crap but I'm seeing a difference in my shape and actually really enjoying it. I've just come from body fusion which is a bit like circuits - tough going and I struggle with parts of it but my 3rd Saturday there now and I'm sticking with it.
I also do Zumba, aeromix, yoga, spinning (for beginners cos it's hell) and Kettlebells. I'm trying body pump this week whatever that is. Really hoping I can fight the excess skin / tone as I lose weight.

I've been trying to swim at least twice a week but fitting it round committee meetings and parents evenings make it difficult!
I've managed to borrow some hockey kit from someone so going to train with the team I played for until about 4 years ago! Feeling like I can go back now I'm smaller than I was when I stopped playing!

Morning everyone. Hubby has bought me a new fitbit (had one for some years but died about a year ago). I now feel more accountable to my exercise goals. Was told that I should not go back to the gym yet (not until 3 months post op) because heart rate kept jumping to over 180 and ended up wit palpitations all day. I have been swimming twice a week now and decided to go for my early morning walks to help me with my step goals. My stall is over (yay) and lost 6lbs and I have promised myself not to go on the scales again until January 31st. Happy Monday to you all x
Well done @paulam! I have an Apple Watch that tracks my activity and I can even swim in it and it counts the lengths for me! I also share my activity with a friend so I'm always trying to beat her which helps too!
I'm on countdown to my holiday now, 1week to go but am worried about the flight and how I'll survive with the food etc on it

Well done on the swimming and walking, both excellent forms of exercise, and congratulations on the loss.

Inspired by the conversation I have ordered a TOMTOM Spark 3 Cardio to keep me motivated .. Thanks for the idea
Good stuff @jeff20stone. I love my iwatch and my Fitbit did a great job too.

Well done everyone I may have spoken to soon because the pain in my heel has returned with a vengeance. I have had prior to surgery and was relieved it was gone and I really thought thats it no more wondering whether I can walk up the hill or to the shops. Was hoping to go for my swim but it is too painful. Does anyone know any good apps that I could use at home to do light exercise that does not involve standing? TIA

First session at the gym tonight and i am both dreading and looking forward to it. Hope that the exercise will jump start my weight loss a bit if it doesn't kill me first lol

All the best Andy .. You might even get to like it ... I go 3 times a week and never missed a session
I'm sure it will @AndyMc1978. Whilst my scales haven't moved yet this week I can see my shape has changed. I'm really enjoying exercise classes but my fitness it a bit crap so hoping that increases as I've less lard to move.
@jeff20stone it won't be long before you forget that 1lb was tough to shift!
