Guest guest Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 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!?!?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 , 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... Betsy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
