I gave up a lot of things for this surgery and way of life..I was NOT giving up my 1 to 2 cups of coffee in the morning. I did wait until 6 weeks after surgery and I use Splenda and sugar free creamer in it. I also don't count it towards my fluid goals though.

Here is my list:
1. Skinny Sex
2. More Skinny Sex
3. No more allergies for me
4. Stopped Snoring!
5. Can run away from my niece when she chases me..
It is possible I have sex on the brain today.

Thanks for this Fiddle. Every day I work with the Trainer he starts with a mobility test before we stretch to see where I am at and then we do a number of stretches that involve what you are talking about using the resistance of contracting and flexing at the same time. I am always amazed at how much more range of motion I get with just a few minutes of concentrated stretching.
I am trying to find a resistance band like he uses at the Cross Fit Gym to do some of this at home too.

As you can see from all the responses, every body is different here in terms of how they lose, how much they lose etc. Just like every doctor's pre-op and post-op diet there are a million and one different combinations of things. I know I went through the whole "OMFG why don't I look like Charlize Theron now" two days after surgery But give it time, and don't be a slave to the scale. This is a journey, not a race and with each pound you lose there will be ten new things you can do that you couldn't do before.

I crave sex alot more..does that count?!

What a biatch..and a stupid one too.
My trainer has never had a WLS patient and we started working out together when I was 6 weeks out and consuming 500 calories. I am almost 5 months out now and as my calories have increased he has stepped up the intensity of the workouts. I don't even know about heart zones yada yada yada..all I know is I am a puddle of sweat and cursing him out by the time we are done. 52 pounds later I consider him a success!

I liked your other profile picture!!!! Bring back the man candy with the sexy abs!!!

Don't dread it or you will come to hate it and not do it. Find something you like and do that..dance naked in your living room, Water aerobics, make it a practice to park the furthest parking spot out and walk etc.
I love working with my trainer too, but I have also come to love exercise..mainly because it makes my ass look fantastic

Sleeved 2/12 and down 51 pounds..coming up on the five month mark!
I am halfway to goal and hope to reach it by Thanksgiving!

I work at home on a similar schedule as you fiddle. Everytime I get that bored feeling etc and want to graze I go upstairs and clean something..I have the cleanest damn bathroom ever!!
Or I grab my dog and walk her around the cul de sac..she is definitely loving the extra walks lol

What the hell kind of synthetic drug do you make with a cheese grater and strainer.

If someone left a parking spot would you think it is too harsh to take it?!?!?
You were in the right!!!
