  1. I am a little nervous I have never really been in an exercise class. I really don't like exercising much but I know I need to. I joined the Y and I have been exercising on my own by walking on the treadmill and swimming. I don't feel like I am doing enough. What should I do to be ready for my class? Do I need anything special? No equipment is required. Should I buy workout clothes? How do I fit in? Maybe I should take geriatic chair exercise instead of the ripped exercise I signed up for I am NERVOUS!
  2. Will you have your own hotel room or share? Will you be eating out most meals with family or eating on your own? will you have a way to heat things up?

  6. Wow back to school one week later! That is fast. I went back work two weeks later and I work from home. I hard time and really did not start tofeel like myself untli about 3-4 weeks out.
  7. I am almost 7 weeks out now on solids, all food as tolerated. I am still nervous to eat fresh fruit the way I did in the past though.
  8. Oh My goodness! I am sorry you have ben so ill! I hope you feel better very soon. I am sure that your family is very worried. Please take care and know that we are here to support you.
  9. I have tried a bunch of different Vitamins and they are all just not palatable for me. I have had samples of optisourece, Celebrate and several of the Bariatric Advantage flavors and types. I just cannot tolerate any of them. I am wondering if I will be able to use Centrum chewables. are they different than the others I have tried? Are they smaller? I like the centrum flavor burst but my nutirtionist I cannot use those, she also said no gummies of any kind were acceptable.
  10. I thought I was the only one eating out of the measuring cup!
  11. What are you eating? How often? whay can't you get your protien and liquids in ? Are you feeling overfull when you do eat? I have that overfull feeling when I eat then I am staving again a short time later.
  12. Do you eat dairy or eggs? Fish? Have you tried isopure? I know you said you are over protein shakes but itis different.
  13. I had surgery 11/19 , HW 282, SW 239, CW 221 only 18 pounds since surgery. I am not exactly happy with my loss either but I am taking as a clue to exercise more and hit my protien and water harder.
  14. I had 4 new directions brand protein shakes per day and any other non caloric , non caffeinated, non carbonated beverages . The diet was two weeks pre op , I lost 12 pounds.
  15. Anything can be pureed, go for it!
  16. I only have a few oair that fit now and no washer at home. s o how many time do you wear before washing or dry cleaning your pants or jeans?
  17. I am six weeks out today and now that i can stomach milk again i am averaging about 800. I am hoping the nurse will advance my diet to regular foods today then i can up it a little more. when my body gets out of starvation mode I think I will lose faster.
  18. I am the odd one out here. I am almost six weeks post op and still nedd the zofran daily. Usually when I wake up is the worst. I also still need the medicine for stomach spasms sometimes the levsin or bentyl they both work well. Guess my stomach is really sensitive compared to others.
  19. I cannot drink at all like i used too and sometimes i feel so thirsty. it is definitly a problem for me. Small sips are not quenching my thirst at all. I can take bigger drinks now at almost 6 weeks out ao I am hoping it better with more time.
  20. I discovered that my sons teacher is the size I was shrinking out of so I passed my pants on to her, she really needed them.
  21. My nutritionist told me yesterday it is better to spread it out during the day because your body can process it better!
