I am Sept 16th also

One suggestion I have without knowing what type of Protein is in that shot is with 49gr, drink half at a time. I have been told your body only can process 20-30 gr per 2 hrs, the rest you just waste away.

Nearly everyday, but I only record my weight once a week.

I joined a gym when my dr gave me approval to start working out. I try to get there 3-4 days a week. Made that goal 80%of the time due to various kid sickness, school suff etc. The scale was not moving as well as I would like it to be. My friend started taking a boot camp class and said her trainer was going to hold a class in my town. She was having a lot of progress losing weight. I decided to try the class. 2 wks in the scale is finally moving again. The trainer is Ryan Ehmann who was featured on shark tank last year. He promotes using a heart rate monitor to get you in a fat burning zone. I knew about the theory, and thought I was getting in the zone but I doubt it given how nicely the scale is moving now.
For the first time in my life, I find working out to be something I look forward to.

Be cautious about too much stocking up. Your tastes may change. I know many have posted about buying too much Protein powders and other specialized foods. I sampled a lot per-op and had a small supply of those I could tolerate. I also researched places online to buy them so if I couldn't get out to buy them I knew where I could get them. Hopefully your recovery goes really smoothly and there will not be much down time. I came home and was doing most of my normal stuff the next day. Driving kids to school, shopping etc. the one thing I was cautious of the first week was how much I lifted.

I have been a stall for 2 weeks. Making me crazy, I know from reading here the scale will move again. They tell me my body will change, well finally I am seeing evidence of that. I bought a pair of jeans a few weeks ago that I couldn't zip up but was close..well today they fit. So it is true, your body can change without the scale moving.

Well guys I hired a personal trainer..Yup that's right!!!!!!!!! He comes on Tuesday for our first meeting...
This guy specializes in helping those who have had severe problems like recovering from heart and stroke..MS, long hospital stays..Oh yes that's me......When I was in the coma and my months after I lost all my muscle mass..I only have recovered a little because of continued illness...
I was told about this man as he suffered similar circumstances in the fact that he almost died. Lost all his muscle mass and started from the ground up rebuilding himself....
I am nervous but excited as well to get started...
I told him I have no desire to sweat, be sore or ever run a marathon.........He laughed and said you will sweat and you will be sore. running a Marathon is up to you or not....
Looking forward to the next step in this journey......Thought I would share it with you guys...........I am going to start exercising after 14 months!!!!!!!!!!!! Other then walking I might add!!

Thank you

It is a huge learning process. Try room temp Water, crystal light, Warm water.
I had a lot of issues with nausea also but it stopped after about a week. Are you on Prilosec or similar.?
It does get better

Whaddya mean 'virtual'?! xx

After nearly 3 weeks of not being able to get to the gym, I made it there this morning. Feeling very sore right now and I am treating that as a good thing.
