Exercise challenge??

Wow, I totally missed the rest of this conversation after day 1. I am going to try a spin class tomorrow - the doc said it is ok, just no resistance on the bike. Even with no resistance, I am gonna DIE !!! But I am gonna try

The class is an hour - will let you know how I do. I should probably drink a protein drink before - would anyone agree? In the past I would have had one after, but I don't know if I will have the stamina without it.

Definitely have one before and drink plenty of water. Good luck...let us know how you do !!

Today 10 minutes on the elliptical burned 232 calories.

Go Linda for adding so many calories to our challenge!!

Monday I burned 180 calories on the treadmill and today 190.

As of today we have collectively burned approximately 5,263 calories!!! Just imagine how much fat that is. Let keep up the good work and please if you did any amount of walking or any kind of cardio, post it.

Ok so it took me FOREVER - but I finally did the spin class tonight. One hour long and I did the whole thing. And I stood each time the class did. WHOO HOO !!! Per the dr's instruction, I did not use resistance (except when I stood - you have to have some resistance for that). It was much better than I expected. Yippee
