So, I've started my walking. Susan (Fuzz's Nurse) gave me a walking plan before I left the hospital. They really stress that excercise is essential to getting the most from your Lap-Band. I've read about lots of people's lap-band journeys on http://www.obesityhelp.com/, and it is true...the most successful people are the ones who regularly exercise. Eventaully, I will be exercising for 60 minutes a day, 6 days a week. But, I am starting out with 20 minutes per day of walking, which, at my slow pace is about a mile a day. So far this week I've done 3 miles. Not bad for someone a week out of surgery! I already feel healthier and stronger. Please pray that I'll have the discipline to stick with it.
I love having my mp3 player to listen to while I exercise. What are your favorite songs to work out to? You can leave a comment at the bottom of this post with your thoughts. Thanks!

About Me
- Tami
- I have three extremely cute kids-Andrew is 14, Carley is 12 and Laura is 9. My husband, Alton, is a delivery driver by day with dreams of one day publishing his own comic book. Yes, he is a geek, but I love him anyway. I have been working at WBFJ since September 2004 when God threw me out of the boat I was riding in and set me on a new and wonderful course. I love co-hosting the morning show, although the lack of sleep does make me a bit loopy at times.

I love Audio Adrenaline, David Crowder Band and Tobymac. They are my favorites to listen to when I walk. I visualize myself actually being in good enough shape to jog down the beach while listening to Ocean Floor (that's my goal).
Good suggestions, Coolrain!
I think Relient K is a great one to work out to, makes me want to move faster!
