I'm not a gym person either. I have a membership but don't use it! I have a collection of work out DVDs I do at home. I got my 4 year old involved so he doesn't let me miss a day! I really like Jillian Michaels work outs but they are really challenging. I would research work out DVDs online and preview them on YouTube uf you're interested in starting that. I also have yoga DVDs which have really helped my flexibility! Good luck to you and it's important to find something you like!

So calling African Americans ignorant is a nice and educational thing to say? I'm just wondering.

WOW!

I moved to pureed 2 weeks after surgery. 4 days clear liquid and 10 days full liquids then pureed. 5 days out gas might be a problem. I'm not sure though.

I didn't have a problem! I ate that a lot during pureed.

I have almost a full jar sitting in my cabinet. They make me too full.

Whenever I want to eat but not hungry (usually at night) I brush my teeth, clean, work out, take a hot relaxing bath, or just go to bed!

Unfortunately, that's what all these "weight loss" programs are about. Fraud, lying, and tricking people into waisting their money! All the commercials with "before and after " pics are computer generated. That's pretty crappy what your friend is doing! I probably would have fallen victim to her lies pre op. I understand your frustration!

No way! I don't believe that's you! Your after pic looks like the before pic's daughter! Haha! Congratulations!

WOW, Fiddle!!! I've never seen your before picture! Amazing transformation!

I think it is compassionate to let people know losing 100 pounds in a month is unrealistic! It makes the process a lot easier and more enjoyable to have realistic expectations.

Absolutely gorgeous! Congratulations on your success! It's also great to hear that you are happy. You're doing amazing!

I disagree, TALK HER OUT OF IT! haha! Show her the links posted above, tell her about all the complications and very low success rates. I'm sure her doctor had something to do with her decision. Don't be pushy, just concerned. Good luck!

I agree 100%!!!! This isn't liposuction! I don't usually answer those posts because it's ridiculous! This surgery cut out part of the stomach ....nothing more. Your body is going to lose at the pace it chooses. I'm sure we all wish for immediate results but it doesn't work like that. You WILL NOT lose every day, week, or even month. You still have to bust your ass to get the results you want. Good luck everyone!

I'm wondering if over confident means the OP ate whatever they wanted thinking the sleeve would work no matter what. I too would like to know what you are eating and how much. This is a very scary thought!

All my favorite foods! Thanks!

Yea, I'd be way too scared to eat that many calories! Plus, it'd be near impossible! I got my DVDs today!!! I was so excited and did Exhale's 30 Day Sculpt. It is 30 different yoga workouts that are 20 minutes long. I expected it to be calm and easy! Wrong! I was sweating like crazy! But I got through the whole thing! After I put the kids to bed I'm going to do Jillian's No Trouble Zones. Will report back! Hope I'm not annoying y'all with my updates, I'm just too excited! Happy transforming!

I don't see what the big deal is. I tried wine at 4 weeks out. It didn't sit well so I stopped. Just take it slow and see how it goes. Be careful because you do get buzzed faster and make sure you've had plenty of water! Not everyone who enjoys an occasional drink is a raging alcoholic.

I wore yoga pants and maternity jeans (I just had a baby).

Great job, Fiddleman!!! How much weight have you lost total? You have no loose skin? This morning I am down 4 pounds! I can't believe I have 17 more pounds to be under 200! I bought some new clothes for work yesterday because everything I have is to big!

I'll have to yry Bob too!

Lol I get mine on Amazon. 7-10 bucks!

I do Jillian michaels DVDs. I have a collection!

Ok well, I did have to stop but didn't miss a single workout. I stopped for about 20 seconds total. I did more than I've ever done and for that, I'm thrilled! Those damn running mans got me!
