  1. I'm 27 and started at 300lbs. Good for you on making a choice to have WLS. This is definitely not the place to be embarrassed. Good luck
  2. I love that app, good choice
  3. That's awesome. Keep up the good work
  4. I started 5days post op and I felt fine. Some doctors have their time frame and some don't. It's really up to you(in my opinion) and how you are feeling. Just take it easy. If your body isn't feeling it, it'll let you know. Good Luck
  5. First year paid by insurance after that $250
  6. Is where I find my peace, away from it all. It's mines, it belongs to me for that moment. I am a new woman, my mind is at peace. I can finally THINK, without 2 toddlers in one ear and well... Life in the other. I can be myself, by myself and enjoy myself. Even if I'm sore or in a little pain afterwards, that's ok. Peace never hurt so good Just sharing my new found peace... It's lovely Lala
  7. That's great! Congrats. Wishing you the very best
  8. I only told a couple of family members( hubby, mom and aunt)
  9. I just started it. I'm on week 1. So far I like how it's working me out. I was definitely sore afterwards. Good luck to everyone. I'm gonna keep at it

    Has anyone tried it and saw results especially with the strength training portion? I have a free pass and I want to try it out. Just wondering if the banded community has had any experience with it. Thanks in advance Lala
  11. I love it! thanks for sharing
  12. lalaj have you been doing your pilates and yoga? I havent, I dont have the money for Pilates classes. I have been searching for a yoga class that will work for my schedule. Im home with my children all day. I barely get my walking in every morning. I started the C25K program yesterday and BOY!! and I sore but I still pushed myself this morning to go for my walk, got in 2 miles so Im ok with that. Best thing is, it actually helped my soreness. I was doing the Zumba at home with the XBOX Kinect, its cool. Its tough for me though. I have to continue to work at that. Overall, walking has been my friend but I know I must do other things.
  13. Congrats and wishing you a speedy recovery
  14. I drink decaf hot/iced. I use fat-free coffe-mate creamer and 0 calorie equal when I make it at home. At the coffee shop, I get it with easy cream and equal. I've tried it with skim, it just doesn't do it for me.
  15. Awesome! Congrats and wishing you a speedy recovery
  16. Good luck to all the July Banders
