Who are these surgeons? I will be living in the Tampa area soon.

Thank you all for all the great advice. I have decided to go with total body weight training 3 days per week and cardio for 30 min on alternating days, for now. It's a start, but boy am I sore!!!! I was told it gets better. Hope so!! :p

Wow! That is a lot of exericse for one day!!! I think "The Rock" spends about the same amount of time in the gym. I think my goal will be an hour of cardio per day and weight training 3 times per week. After I start exercising more I wouldn't mind doing more than an hour as long as it was something different like biking in…

Thanks for your reply! I agree that exercise is something I just need to plan on doing the rest of my life but I sure do look forward to more energy. I have never felt so tired in my life. I am sure it is due to the amount of sugar in my diet. That stuff is like a drug. Terrible! It makes my husband grouchy and me sleepy.…

Thanks for the advice. I do know I can lose weight without exercise, but when I exercise I sleep better and feel better in general. I think starting with what I can do and increasing it weekly would be a good start. As far as calorie intake is concerned, I am tracking everything. Hopefully, after two to three weeks of this…

You can add me too. I am 5'4", 255 (I still can't believe that) and want to get under 150.

Congrats!!! 77 pounds lost.....I bet you feel so much better. I think exercise really is the key to being healthy. Not meaning that diet isn't important too butt if you don't exercise, I think it makes it so much harder to see results. I have been overweight since I had my son at age 21. I'm 43 now. I came 30 pounds within…

I would love to join in! I have a vacation this summer that I am very excited about and I want to lose half the weight by June. I need to lose 98 pounds total so that means 49 pounds by June. I can do this!! I am glad to find other people in the same boat as me and even ones who "were" in the same boat and succeeded. You…

Wow!!! I bet you feel so much different!! Congratulations.

Wow....thanks for that quote from that article. I didn't know that. 8 glasses a day it is!!! I have to use ice though. I will have to figure out a way to count the ice.......oh it doesn't matter........whatever water I drink from the ice melting is just that much better.

Hell-o. I'm Trina I would like to lose 30 pounds for Halloween too. That seems to be a pretty good goal, attainable goal. Uh.....I don't think I have ever dressed up as an adult for Halloween. If I ever did, it would have to be the Paul Stanley kiss make up thing (even though I'm female). I have the right hair for it.…
