Any Aussie sleevers?
I did a 2 week pre op diet cause I had a fatty liver and I guess it's a goood way to get used to eating bugger all and to weigh less before surgery is always a bonus. I use boomers Protein powder which is tasteless and I can add it to anything although I do have a vanilla one which I can't remember atm which i have started to use now cause in the beginning after my sleeve I was a little lactose intolerant.

When did you start lifting?
I started walking for around 30 mins a few times into my second week then at the end of the 2 week started light weights for arms n shoulders. 3rd week I'm doing free squats and hamstrings , shoulders and biceps n triceps... I haven't been told anything really. If I find something uncomfortable I don't do it. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

After 93 pnds how can I gain healthy weight (muscle)
Definitely lift heavier then what you would normally.. walking and yoga etc will not give you muscle. Doing 3-4 sets with around 8-10 reps. Eating Protein with in 30 mins of a work out helps.. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
