    Zadruga got a reaction from raeancin in Heavy lifting, blood sugar issues and Reset 3 yrs post VSG   
    Until 2013 I competed in powerlifting. I am now back at the gym doing 30 minutes of weights and 1 hour of cardio 4xs per week. I am 6 months post op. I'm not sure I want to go back to powerlifting but I see the difference in the mirror. Ive definitely got my muscle back. I'm not as strong as before because I'm smaller, but I am still strong for my size. Of course I have muscle memory working in my favor. I'm also diabetic. I work out in the afternoon after I've had a chance to eat a few meals. I eat a high Protein meal just before I workout and immediately afterwards. Could you qualify for a continuous glucose monitor. With that you would know what your blood sugar is at while you work out.

    Zadruga got a reaction from Cac93 in Surgery and period ugggh   
    My period started the day of the surgery. I was allowed to use tampons. It was a miserable experience though as I get really bad cramps. So that on top of the pain from the surgery was bad. Those first few days I wasn't sure I had made the correct decision. Now at 6 months out I know it was the best thing I ever did.

    Maybe you would like Water aerobics since you like to swim.

    I am almost five weeks post surgery. Today I worked out for an hour. I have been able to do that in years. I love weight lifting and being fit and I can finally do it again. I have rheumatoioid arthritis and diabetes. Before the surgery I was constantly sick, I had cellulitis 3 times last year. I have worked out 4 days so far this week and I'm sleeping less. I have my life back. I feel like I was in prison before and I have now been released. This is the real me. I may not get down to my goal weight as I love lifting heavy weights. But I have already gotten out of this surgery what I wanted, improved health and energy.
