So shut it Shannon. :P<br /><br /> I've been trying to exercise myself and it just never gets any easier. One thing that constantly annoys me is that my blood sugar is rarely optimal and I can't really exercise if it is out of range. That then reminds me that I'm diabetic and that my blood sugar is out of range. Which reminds me.....(and so on) <br /><br />I lost 20 ish pounds a couple years ago on a stint of not exercising (I prefer to waste away with laziness)and since then it seems like any exercise I do just makes me gain weight! This is not an encouragement to me. <br /><br />What's great is that it DOES give you energy and health so I'd say that's the motivation if any.<br /><br />Yep, calories matter all too much unfortunately. :)Shanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04018721209690768151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8883281516588008936.post-43244278335057136002010-01-20T16:14:23.282-05:002010-01-20T16:14:23.282-05:00I could write a book on "exercise for dummies...I could write a book on "exercise for dummies" (although there probably is already one) but in it I would state all the reasons why one should NOT exercise. Maybe a better title would be "Only dummies exercise." I like the idea of walking...from here to the ice cream shoppe. Nothing soothes sore "anything" like a hot-fudge sundae.<br />JEJimmie Earlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06117301181626973474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8883281516588008936.post-75894943005474507152010-01-19T21:12:27.298-05:002010-01-19T21:12:27.298-05:00bragger- you make a good point. or at least what i...bragger- you make a good point. or at least what i took from this is if i would exercise i might not lose weight but i won't get any fatter and can still eat junk...<br /><br />Curley- i want your treadmill! lol!<br /><br />EvilP- when I got divorced I lost about 70 pounds in about 4 months and gained it all back and then some- but it sure was unhealthy the way it happened.<br /><br />I want to exercise but i think i would do better if i had a buddy.<br /><br />And I don't play organized sports. that has nothing to do with exercising- I can't catch a ball unless it was covered with (and me too) and I broke bones when playing sports so... I do like swimming, though.

I lost 80 lbs in roughly 4 months (not recommended) and didn't exercise a bit. I just reduced my calories. But, exercise is still good for the body.<br /><br />I cannot seem to manage the idea of exercising for exercise sake. Now if I'm playing a game of basketball or volleyball, or swimming at the local pool, or walking around the grocery store - that is one thing. But to go out and do it just for the exercise... not thanks. :DEvil Pixiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15862347415955885344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8883281516588008936.post-45498995517099925412010-01-19T08:08:59.079-05:002010-01-19T08:08:59.079-05:00I know what you mean.

Just got off the elliptical even as we speak. Of course, I'm also addicted to chocolate and chips and dip and ice cream and fried potatoes and gooey cheese, so it's pretty much a wash.Braggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01252719085678735035noreply@blogger.com
