Re: exercise

[Guest guest]

Hi,

Ana gave you good advice about checking with your doctor. Not knowing just

what stage of thyca treatment you are in, moderate exercise like walking

will help many things, even while hypo unless contraindicated - perhaps

especially while hypo.

Are you having RAI treatment? I don't see that in your tag-bio.

Best to you,

Hi Dae Woo,

It's three months since your last neck surgery so far as I can see.

If you were exercising regularly before your surgeries I would

just go ahead, but take it easy if you've been " resting " for a while.

If you're thinking of taking up something new or unusual for you then

it might be an idea to touch base with your doctor first.

I certainly found exercise (swimming, cycling, walking) to be very

positive in getting over my surgery and through the hypo/RAI period -

it helped me to deal with the stress as well as combating the hypo

feeling and keeping me fit(ter). But take care and don't do what I

did! Last year I went through neck surgery for the third time

(parathyroidectomy for Primary Hyperparathyroidism) and after surgery

I felt so much better than I had done in months that I took myself off

to the gym six days later...only to think " oops! " as I finished a

ten-minute session on the rowing (!) machine. My neat scar felt a bit

lumpy for a few weeks afterwards and I may have popped some internal

stitches. I stuck to the treadmill and exercise bike after that, and

fortunately I now have a nice flat scar line now.

By the way I don't see any mention of RAI treatment in your

signature...?

Hi solomon3,

I'm 8 weeks post-myomectomy and have been trying to get outside and walk

every day. My doctor was kind of vague about what kinds of specific

exercises I could do besides walking and swimming. (I don't have anywhere to

swim.) He did say it was fine to start back at my aerobic dancing class at 12

weeks post-op, but he stressed 'no abdominals,' (sit ups, crunches, etc.)

I've been doing some gentle yoga stretching, but don't feel ready to do

anything else besides the walking right now... I guess everyone heals at a

different pace and we have to listen/tune in to our own body. I'm having a

problem with constipation and that causes some discomfort where the fibroids

were. I've been gaining weight and need to do some more vigorous exercise

soon -- walking feels good but I can't lose any lbs. that way!

Does anybody else have more specific advice from their doctors? Anybody try

aerobics at 8 weeks?

Thanks.

[Guest guest]

Hi solomon3,

I am entering my 6th week post myo and since the first week I have

been walking just about everyday, except on the days that I know I

will have a long day. I am up to about 2 miles in 4 minutes. I

talked to my dr last week and he told me that next week I can go back

to doing my lifting and aerobics . . . but to listen to my body.

Hearing all the differences in opinions from each of our drs via this

board can be confusing. I guess that the differences for when we do

different types of activities depends on the methods of surgery, and

the extent of our surgeries.

My doctor's instructions were to walk as immediately after the surgery as I

could. My first few days out of the hospital I couldn't even make it around

the block, but I took it slowly and was up to about a mile by 5 weeks. He

told me not to lift anything heavier than 10 pounds or do any abdominal

exercises for 6 weeks. I had a bad week at 6 weeks, so actually resumed my

regular exercise regime at 7 weeks (bicycling or stair stepper at the gym

and weight lifting 2-3 times per week). Took it easy on the weights the

first few weeks. Was back to most of my normal weights at about 3 months.

Still using lower weights on abdominals (now at 4 months), due to still

feeling some weakness there.

Yes, I am training for a 1/2 marathon that is October 26th. We are

walking it - but 13.1 miles is FAR. We actually did 14.5 last week and

man were we tired, but since training all summer we are doing great.

The schedule is here

http://walking.about.com/library/how/nhowhalfmarathon.htm if you want to

see it. I highly suggest following this schedule if you ever want to do

this. I also have an elliptical trainer that I will use more in the

winter. I live in NY and last year it was like -3 for months; much

colder than normal. I eat every single AP I earn. At first I did not

and I stopped losing again. This was before flex when we banked points.

Well I was eating my minimum (I think 24) and earning 6 or 8 APs. I

freaked out. Thought I would weigh 200 forever - no matter what I did.

I posted about my trauma and called my best friend who is a ww'er as

well and everyone told me to EAT.

24points-8APs=16 points=starvation mode! You can not live on 16 points

which is approximately 800 calories a day. I was of the old eating

disorder mindset where food=bad. I started eating my APs and I was

scared to death I would get fatter! But I lost like 3 pounds that week.

I have not been scared ever since.

I know you did not ask about that but I never want anyone to go through

what I did - it was awful. I ate minimum for 3 WEEKS, earned APs that I

would not let myself eat and was one pissed off hungry chubby girl. It

was awful after 3 weeks of hell to lose nothing.

Yes....I am a night owl that's for sure. I took the latest shift

possible in my department but I would love to work nights. I hate

mornings. I am not nor have I ever been a morning person. Neither is my

mom. I knew NOT to talk to her until after she had a cup of coffee when

I lived at home. Will that change? Probably not but it's been almost 29

years so I'm pretty used to NOT being a morning person! LOL! I love

going to the gym late at night but I have started going right after work

with a coworker. I will do this until I move or until I get another job

on the other side of town....whichever comes first. Of course she didn't

show up today but that's okay. I just worked out alone. But it is nice

to go work out and come home and be done with it and not have to go

anywhere else for the rest of the night. As for getting up in the

morning and getting it over and done with....that will never happen!

LOL! I get up with just enough time to shower and get to work. I push it

every day and sleep until the very last minute but I'm never late so

that's a good thing! Good luck to you all who can work out first thing

in the morning. And about the making the bed e-mail you guys sent out? I

don't think I have EVER made my best just because. Ask my mom...did I

ever make my bed? Still don't! LOL! What's the point? You just get right

back in it! LOL! As for her bed, it's always made and nice and neat. I

didn't want to mess it up when I stayed at her house last year. And

what's up with women (you know you do it) putting 20,000 pillows on the

bed for decoration? I stayed at my friends house back in May and I

stayed in the guest room. She had a bed COVERED with pillows. It took me

about 10 minutes to take all the pillows off to get in. And just imagine

what it was like trying to make the bed back up and put the pillows back

on when I left. They were all on there but it didn't look anything like

it did before. Women have a knack for pillow-on-the-bed-decorating! LOL!

Yes....I am a night owl that's for sure. I took the latest shift

possible in my department but I would love to work nights. I hate

mornings. I am not nor have I ever been a morning person. Neither is my

mom. I knew NOT to talk to her until after she had a cup of coffee when

I lived at home. Will that change? Probably not but it's been almost 29

years so I'm pretty used to NOT being a morning person! LOL! I love

going to the gym late at night but I have started going right after work

with a coworker. I will do this until I move or until I get another job

on the other side of town....whichever comes first. Of course she didn't

show up today but that's okay. I just worked out alone. But it is nice

to go work out and come home and be done with it and not have to go

anywhere else for the rest of the night. As for getting up in the

morning and getting it over and done with....that will never happen!

LOL! I get up with just enough time to shower and get to work. I push it

every day and sleep until the very last minute but I'm never late so

that's a good thing! Good luck to you all who can work out first thing

in the morning. And about the making the bed e-mail you guys sent out? I

don't think I have EVER made my best just because. Ask my mom...did I

ever make my bed? Still don't! LOL! What's the point? You just get right

back in it! LOL! As for her bed, it's always made and nice and neat. I

didn't want to mess it up when I stayed at her house last year. And

what's up with women (you know you do it) putting 20,000 pillows on the

bed for decoration? I stayed at my friends house back in May and I

stayed in the guest room. She had a bed COVERED with pillows. It took me

about 10 minutes to take all the pillows off to get in. And just imagine

what it was like trying to make the bed back up and put the pillows back

on when I left. They were all on there but it didn't look anything like

it did before. Women have a knack for pillow-on-the-bed-decorating! LOL!

Happy Wednesday. Weigh in day tomorrow. It's gonna be a nail biter!

TOPS LOVE,

Subject: Re: exercise

Sounds like you and like to exercise at the same time, except for

the

fact he is just getting home at that time LOL!!!

I think if I spent as much time exercising as I do making excuses NOT to

exercise getting on I would definitely get 7 below goal!! Need to take

Vernie's

advice and do it first thing in the morning.

Getting stuck in an exercise rut could put body and mind at risk.

Well, since I have very little mind left and .....well, lets just not talk about the body does this mean I need to stop exercising.......LOL Please say it is so, I'm looking for ANY excuse to stop..

Love ya,
