Ya'll I was doing so good and then I broke my friggin' toe 2 weeks ago!! Ugh! I'm gonna try to get in there next week and just do machines, cuz I'm certainly not going to be able to do the springboards. What a bummer! Sent from my iPhone using VST

I didn't even take my primary in to consideration! I guess I was lucky, made appt with WLS surgeon and went on from there. Good Luck! Sent from my iPhone using VST

oh...and still not a water drinker...eek... I do get all my fluids in, but it is in the form of Crystal Light or Vitamin 0 water....I drink and pee all day!! lol

Hi Everyone!! Thank you for all the info!! I've been really concentrating on doing everything right, I still mess up though...The scale finally started moving and kept moving steadily, officially 55lbs down, 6 months post op, still seems slow, but I'll take it. I do journal with MyFitnessPal, and was regularly going to Curves until I broke a toe 2 weeks ago, and then reinjured it a couple of days ago. My day consists of a Protein drink for breakfast....half a dry sandwich on jewish rye with usually roast beef or turkey (no mayo, no mustard, sometimes cheese), snack on babybell cheese, and a piece of fish, or shrimp, or a chicken patty, or small steak at night....that's about it...I added a glass of wine here and there and a margarita also, and it hasn't thrown me off. I have my 6 month follow up soon, and I really felt like I was going to go in there with 20lbs lost...thankfully that won't be the case. I've never measured, but Curves has, which I started about 3 months post op. So I am anxious to get back in there and have them measure me... Thanks again everyone!!

reviewing MyFitnessPal: today: when I awoke - Syntrax nectar 1 scoop Protein drink Breakfast - 2 scrambled eggs after workout - Syntrax Nectar 1 scoop Protein Drink lunch - Starkist chunk light tuna in Water 5oz snack - cutie orange dinner - 4 oz homemade leafy lettuce with red cabbage, some pecans, radishes, yellow onion, 1TBLSP Kraft Light Ranch, drizzle lemon juice... says total food calories 564....exercise today = 367...remaining calories 603 sooooooooooo, what up? Ok, now I'm going to bed...ugh!

I just join Curves about 4 weeks ago, went here and there, but am now able to do the circuit 2 x as recommended, and I go 4 days a week for 30 minutes. MyFitnessPal adds 347 calories back into my 800 calorie goal. But I'm not actually sure what our calorie goal should be, but I'm managing well with 800 - 825...sometimes it doesn't appear I'm losing weight, but I just keep on trucking....

I was the same way, didn't have any issues keeping anything down, or managing all the liquids...but once I started incorporating mostly food, and not mushies...I totally felt restriction when it was a bite to many, glad I had Gas X on hand. Now, I'm counting calories, and weighing an making sure to stop eating before full (restricted)...proteins, proteins, water water.... Good Luck!

It is becoming very depressing...so much so, I'm going to bed...before 8pm! Not a good sign....but it's better than brooding, nothing gonna change tonight. Gonna pick my ass out of bed tomorrow morning, work-out, chase my foster puppies everywhere, eat right.....keep on keeping on...I guess.

Well I purchased a digital scale yesterday. Measured my Breakfast of scrambled eggs mixed with turkey sausage out..had a couple Protein shakes today...and weighed my garden salad out, of leafy greens, red cabbage, pecans, radishes, onions and Kraft lite Ranch. Weighing is confusing me, when it comes to MyFitnessPal...but I'm doing both. And I know I have to stay of the scale...but ya'll...i'm sooooooooo not near my lowest ever. As of Dr. visit yeasterday and at Curves today...the weight measured the same...I'm 12lbs up!!!!!!!!!!!! WTF????? Sorry, but can ya'll see my frustration? If it was 2-3lbs here and there, I understand....10-13lbs??? no way! It's like I'm starting over. I think I will just go back to liquids only like before and after surgery to kick start it. I lost 10 lbs liquid only pre-surgery, then 25ish liquid only 3 week post surgery...and it's climbed ever since! Ugh!

I am...I'm "keep on keeping on"!! I have to say, I've lived in my area for 7 years, and since I don't work, do not have many friends at all here. The local Curves owner and staff is so friendsly, non-judging once so ever! They remembered my name from day 1!! I needed this so much! It is still so hard to "get there", motivation wise...but I do!! Oh and my personal physcian works out there!! I see her on her lunch hour!! What a plus!! Working up to trying Zumba there! Curves has my support and vote, if anyone asks!

I tried it, I like it! Sent from my iPhone using VST
