Get yourself an energetic collie dog. They come with miles of gentle walking as part of the package and it's surprisingly social as well as dog walkers all seem to talk to one another.

It definately is a lot of fun.
It is the one exercise I have found which makes it seem like it isn't exercise.
The music gets you going and all of the different moves are good fun. :tu:
I'm glad you enjoyed it.

would do,but can't have pet! Thank you for the suggestion though! :)

Weight gain is continuing.... I'm actually looking forward to end of March when I start to slim down even if I'm not looking forward to having to be disciplined. At the moment I can eat whatever I want pretty much.

14st 13lb / 209lb / 94.8kg now... not nice at 5ft 8-9in. Want to drop that to no more than 196 once I trim down.

Re: Who Is Getting Fit This Year?
 

Just start of with a small walk and dont put yourself under pressure and build it up every day by another 5mins.

I gave up the milk chocolate and replaced it with the dark choc as I wasn't eating as much of the dark chocolate as I was the milk one.

Today now I have given up the dark chocolate and replaced it with fruit. Well I made smooties as I dont really like fruit but it tastes ok in made into a smootie.

Also for the first time this morning I have made this oat ceral instead of my normal wetabix and I found I was a lot more full from it as well and dont my gentle walk today.

Dont beat yourself up as when the time is ready you will be able to do it and do it in small doses as well and you will get there. :hugs::hugs::hugs:

I think the weight gain is somewhat self-inflicted in Igni's case, defirish ... an accepted side effect of his new-for-2011 bodybuilding hobby.

I've acquired a exercise bike thanks to the generosity of a close neighbour.:)
Hoping to cycle whilst watching TV, maybe that will keep my mind of the pain!:D:D:D

That's some scary ass **** right there

Which ways the beach :D

Re: Who Is Getting Fit This Year?
 

It's mostly to the south and a bit to the east, in August :)

Re: Who Is Getting Fit This Year?
 

Think I may have lost a titch more, could be the result of using the bike. Wednesday's weigh-in at Weight Matters meeting (last one of 8, unbelievably) will tell. :erm:

How is everyone else doing?

Re: Who Is Getting Fit This Year?
 

Well done you Tinkey. Your doing fantastic work :clap::clap::clap: I'm still doing the small walks and trying to keep myself busy around the house as well when I can. I'm thinking of going back to the pool just to do the walking in it as I really miss it and it was doing my back some good as well

Re: Who Is Getting Fit This Year?
 

Thank you defirish once again! :hugs: You have the right idea with the small walks, and just genrally keep moving more than you would normally, and when you feel the time is right go back to the pool.

Re: Who Is Getting Fit This Year?
 

I'm bored out of my senses doing the same walk and I will have to restrain myself until I get the x ray done on my neck and back from swimming and just walk in the water

Re: Who Is Getting Fit This Year?
 

Don't lose heart Irish, you are doing what you can under very difficult circumstances. The key is to keep moving more than you would normally.
