Just_me

Thanks I did the couch to 5k a few months back but stopped at week 3. Now that I have this new energy and motivation I hope to finish it. I just want to make sure Im not pushing it.

Hi everyone, I had surgery 3/19 and have lost 14lbs. I have mainly walked 2 miles 4 times a week and want to increase my activity to start running again. When did people start more streneous excercise after their surgery? I tried to run for a minute or so the other day and got dizzy. I don't want to push it too soon but the loss has already help increase my energy level and want to get back to running. Thanks

What has helped me when I know I was full but if food was still in front of me and I would be tempted to eat because it was there, was to put a bunch of stuff on it i.e salt pepper so the food would be too terrible to eat. I would feel bad sometimes because I was wasting food but I would rather do that than to regret eating all of it.

I am new to this forum and got banded on Wednesday. Dr Tran did my procedure at FairOaks Hospital in Fairfax, VA. I can not say enough good things about the staff there. They are great!!! I am home now and healing. A little sore and tired but other than that doing great!!
