Excerise

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

Hope you all are feeling better then I am. There is a storm on it's way

and I am my own personal weather person. I guess, I am having a

little " pity party " since I hurt. I was watching The Biggest Looser on

NBC and sometimes that show gets to me. I would LOVE to be able to

excerise that intensely w/o killing myself. So far, I have never seen

a person with a chronic pain condition on any show like that. Yeah, I

hear the contestants whine when they hurt, but it's nothing like what

we go through on a daily basis. I am tempted to audition for the show

for next season, but I doubt I would get the medical clearing for it

and I do take opiates for my severe abdominal pain, which knowing my

luck, be an instant disqualification.

Lately, my weight is increasing. I can't excerise until my wounds from

my hernia surgery 2 months ago heal. I just don't know what else I can

do. I am on lyrica and seroquil which cause weight gain, which is the

only side effect that I ever get. I have jokingly told my husband and

I wish I had a tape worm or an eating disorder. I just don't know what

to do anymore...any ideas!?!??

How about some of the in-door Walking DVD's that they have? I ordered " Walk Away

the Pounds " and have lost 13 lbs so far. I can do it inside the house (or at

work when it's slow), it's not real intensive and you get to work at your own

pace. It was not expensive and I like the workout. All you need are sneakers and

comfortable clothing!

 

Heal quickly...
