I love Zumba its a great workout. I think if your doctor clears you for exercise you should try it but modify the moves so you don't hurt yourself. I'm so happy for you.

Sometimes simple is the answer panty hose. You can sew them to the sport bras and wear them to work out.

Im so excited!!! I just got a call from my dr office and they asked if they could move my surgery from Aug 15th to Aug 7th? Uh of course you can!!! Lol she said oh my you have made my day everyone else on scheduled for the 15th were mad as mad can be at me...i told her no way that she just made my day my week actually lol. So now i have 11 days left rather then 19! Whoo hoo!

Well my fellow Aug sleevers today was my preop appointment. My doctor was happy with the weight I have lost so far. I'm so ready for august 1st.

Hello everyone my doctor was very happy with my weight loss and gave me the green light for surgery Aug 1st. I'm so excited!!!

QOTD: I'm 5'2 my goal weight is 135. My start weight is 270,135 is half of me. But I would love to be 115-120.

Today is my preop appointment. I didn't lose the whole 15 pounds the doctor asked me to. I lost 11. I hope it's good enough. I'm so nervous.

I think its enough. Especially since you have been exercising' date=' building muscle. Muscle weighs more than fat so you probably have lost more than you think and gained some good muscles! No worries [/quote']

Thank you I even got a print out from my gym that shows my check in times. I'm proud to say I haven't missed a day since we signed up. They should have perfect attendance awards at the gym.

I'm scheduled for surgery Aug 1st. My preop appointment is tomorrow, my doctor asked me to lose 15 pounds, I lost 11.4. I tried my best worked out every day sometimes twice a day at the gym. Kept a log on my fitness pal and stayed under goal every day. I had mostly Protein food and no junk, never drank my calories expect when I drank my Protein Shakes. Im so worried that this will still not be good enough. Please pray for me.

Last week I was at 263 today 259!

Hello, I was wondering how you are doing after surgery. Hope to hear from you soon. Can't wait to see you in September's support group meeting. Guess what my date was moved up from the 31st to the 1st.

Hello I'm scheduled for surgery on August 1st at Kaiser West los angeles with dr. Casillas . I got lucky and took a cancelation. The Dr asked me to lose 15 pounds on 7/2 I'm down 11 pounds, my preop appointment is Monday and I'm working hard to lose the next 4 pounds, 3 hours at the gym twice a day, since Tuesday. I'm so ready for this.

Yes finally got one for next Friday' date=' only a week sooner but better then nothing. I will probably call again tomorrow as it seems Fridays are consult days and see if there is a same day. Also heard from a friend from my Options class who is assigned to Dr. Fudorka at St. B's and had her pre- Op Wed. and got a surgery date of Aug. 8th so the wait at St. B's is much less then we were told![/quote']

Congrats on getting in sooner I hope the wait it that short. I too got a cancelation for surgery Aug 1st. I have 4 pounds to lose by Monday. So excited for us

You will be encouraged to continue losing. I didn't lose it gained a few at my first consultation with the surgeon he challenged me to lose 15 pounds. I've lost 9 my preop appointment is Monday. So I hope this helps. Good luck
