Mary Gordon replied to Kai's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
good to hear you?re doing better.....take care. -
haven?t had this problem either, what i did have was like i had this bad taste in my mouth, so what i do now is i pop a sugar free trident and it makes it go away......so maybe some gum for you will keep your mouth less dry. goodluck

What is everyone's exercise routine? New and long timers
Mary Gordon replied to kermit_ojp's topic in Fitness & Exercise
i go to the gym 5 days a week, some days i do cardio, like kickboxing and some other days we do weights.....then we have one day a dance class which is really cool. sometimes it?s hard to wake up and do exercise, but when i finish doing exercise i feel great!!! it helps me overall, and i never feel depressed. -

On the right track !!!
Mary Gordon replied to JudyJudyJudy's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
how do you do it? do you feel really tired at the end of the day? or is it more the feeling of satisfaction that keeps you going. your story is inspiring. i will follow your example. thanxs -
for lower body - tummy - pushups and abdominals are a great form of exercise. plus it's really important to take care of your calorie intake. for upper body, lifting some small weights will help shape your back and shoulders. :biggrin0:
