  1. For me it's been walking almost every day!! Most days I walk about 2 miles in about 31 minutes. Once or twice a week ill do 3-4 miles. Today i even did 5.21 miles!! It's fast paced but not kill you speed :) I've noticed quite a change over the last month or so in my upper thighs!!! Good luck!!!

    thanks i will try those.

  4. My mom and I both had the Vertical Sleeve surgery last year. Mine was in July and hers was in September. One thing we both noticed was that there weren't many resources out there that were just for people that have had weight loss surgery. There were a few blogs out there' date=' and of course this forum and others, but one thing we craved was MORE. We both struggled with making the surgery work in the first few months. What could we eat? How could we make it edible without grossing us out? So many questions. It took us months of trial and error to come up with ways to make the high Protein lifestyle we needed work. Thus, 7 Bites was born. Our first episode has aired on YouTube today, and we are so excited. For those of you that know me, I am also known as JenniJune on this very forum. I owe VST a LOT for getting me through the first few months for sure! I invite you all to come check out our show - and be sure to tell us what you think![/quote']

    love the channel and cant wait ror the next week episode. Blessings

  5. Why not... My name is Andrea and I just turned 29 yesterday. I had my sleeve done on September 9th. I am married to my awesome husband of almost 2 years on the 15th. I started at 303 and I am down to 258ish. What brought me to this decision besides my doctor' date=' was My number 1 reason is my husband. He asked me if I would do this and I couldn't refuse his beautiful brown eyes. 2) I have had many family, not all over weight pass away from cancer. 3) at 27/28 my blood pressure and cholesterol was starting to go up and I wanted to nip it in the bud so they say as soon as possible. 4) I was just plain happy at who I was becoming and wanted a change. So some interests, I love horseback riding, which I haven't done in years but I am hoping by next spring/summer that I will be able to ride with my mom. My husband has gotten me into hunting and target practicing which is a really good stress reliever. I also enjoy camping, fourwheeling and all that jazz. I am not a tomboy cause I love shopping( so excited to do some shopping as I get smaller), manicures, pedicures and all that girly stuff. I also can't wait for summer so we can try our hand at white Water rafting. That about sums it up about me in a nutshell.[/quote']

    welcome to the family
