I HATE EXERCISE!
You've no
doubt heard about the positive effects that exercise can
have on your overall health and blood sugar control if you are diabetic.
Yet, if you're like
most people with diabetes, you're still not getting enough activity in
your life.It can be difficult to make the leap from knowing
to doing.
The first step is to figure out what's getting in the
way of
your get-up-and-go. Once you understand what's stopping you, perhaps
you'll know how to start moving forward.
What one thing
frustrates you the most
about exercising?
1. I HATE exercise!
2. I DON'T have time
to exercise!
3. IT Doesn't make any difference!
4. I AM
NOT motivated!
5. I get BORED and give up!
People hate
exercising because its not fun. Find some activity to do that you will
enjoy. Try gardening, or find a walking group so you are with other
people when you are walking. I found boxing to be my sport of choice. I
started over 5 years ago, and discovered it to be a great way to get
out my frustrations and compete with myself. Punching the bags is a
great release for me and a wonderful activity to lose weight.
People
I have worked with started belly dancing classes (even when they
thought they were to fat) and loved the way they felt connecting to
their bodies again. Step outside the box when you think about getting
active.
You don't need to go to the gym to exercise. Think
about what kinds of activities you liked as a child. Did you jump rope,
play volley ball or soccer. Think outside the box. Once you find
something you enjoy, its much easier to get motivated and find the time
for yourself to do it. Remember, if its boring, the chances of you
continuing are slim.
That's why I started Walking Soles. To help
people get started to move again. My Walking Soles groups have gone
on to walk in races, marathons and triathlons! And it all started with
them walking with my groups.
I designed the Walking
Soles program to complement weekly one-on-one therapy sessions. The
program is ideally suited to those who feel intimidated by clinical
therapy.
Here, you'll give up the therapist's couch in favor of a lawn chair and
green
grass. In this setting, many people relax in ways they couldn't in the
office,
allowing for important work that gets right to the source of the
feelings
underlying emotional eating and unhealthy lifestyle choices.
The
Walking Soles
group gathers each week in the lovely outdoor setting of Eisenhower
Park on Long
Island to meet with other women committed to long-term weight
loss.
Walking
Soles is a mutual support group, where, under my guidance as an
obesity expert. I have created a loving and supportive environment for
talking
about our weight issues free of shame and self-loathing.
Each
group meets for 90
minutes. The session begins by everyone pairing off with a "walking
buddy", and
the assignment of a discussion topic given by me. Then you and your
buddy will
take an easy, pleasant walk or a brisk walk (depending on what level you
are
at) around the park for 30 minutes or so, while discussing the topic for
the
day.
After the walk, we all
meet back at Field 1 for a seated group session where we talk about the
emotional issues around our weight, share tips on adopting a healthy
lifestyle,
and work on the deeper issues that keep us from losing weight. Each
week you will receive handouts and
motivational materials.
Sessions are held on
Saturday mornings and run for 4 weeks at a time. There are 3 sessions
planed for the summer.
Fees are as follows:
4 weeks $120
8
weeks $240
12 weeks $340 ($20
discount)
Bring a friend who
signs up for 4 weeks get a free session.
Sessions must be
completed in succession.
No refunds
Next session starts on
Saturday, July 10th from 9a.m. to 10:30a.m.
