  1. My surgery was March 5th. At my 2-week check-up my doctor said my incisions looked great and after 4 weeks post-op I could do whatever I wanted as long as I didn't work my stomach/abs. So I started hitting weights the beginning of last week and I've felt amazing. I get most of my cardio in by walking during my breaks at work. I started my weight load off light with 10lb dumbbells but I've progressed on certain exercises to 15lbs. I actually worked chest, shoudlers, and triceps yesterday and am sore today, so I know I'm benefitting now. My next doctor's appointment is next Thursday, and I will weigh and update then. I've tried to stay away from the scales as much as possible so as to not discourage myself. I see and feel the inches falling off by my clothes. The weight is a number to me, and I try to see it as nothing more. Hope this was helpful!
  2. Surgery went beautifully a week ago. Been doing well on liquids this first week and looking forward to pureed foods. :) Clothes getting big and can move around better already. Excited to be cleared for the gym and weight lifting.

  3. So, my surgery is tomorrow! :) Super excited and nervous, but definitely ready for this step into a new me.
