I wrap my workout with 15/15, which is 15 minutes at level 15. It is a good way to wrap things up.

I still have it to some degree after 2 years. Had the same issue before surgery. I take Imodium AD and it helps.

I have been stalled for 2 months. I keep track of everything but can’t figure out why I am stuck. I am still trying to lose that last 50.

I also mix my shake/powder up with unsweetened whey. Depending on the flavor I choose I may mix it with decaf coffee, which tempers the sweetness quite a bit.

I have been focusing on weights also, but have not been doing the free weight lifting that you are, I am still in the process of losing, and weights have really helped keep me from excessive lose skin. It it also helps that I am losing slower. I still do cardio because I need to work on my stamina and it helps my asthma, but weights are my preference.

Going on my first flight after losing weight and having the seat belt fit, and I had to pull it to fit!

I am 6 1/2 months out and have lost 65 lbs. I am losing slow but every lb counts. Still eating right and hitting the gym. The rest will come off eventually.

I am so very sorry for your loss. You and your family will be in my thoughts.

I started using weights about six weeks out, but lighter weights. Now at five months out the weights I use have gone up from 10 to 20 lbs, depending on what I am doing. Trying to keep things as firm as possible, and I found working out helps take off the lbs.

The same thing happened to me. There were foods I loved that I suddenly could not stand. I am almost 5 months out and my taste for some of these foods is coming back. Just ride it out and see how your body responds.

I am 62 and almost 4 months into my journey, you better believe I will get my breasts done if I end up with soap-in-a-rope boobs. I have to live with them.

I am losing slow also, but it is giving me time to get in better shape.

Hi fellow Feb members. I moving right long and doing well. I still have times when, at the end of the day, I find myself hitting a protein drink to get my protein in for the day. I am doing great at exercise and use free weights and weight machines 99% of the time. My back does not hurt as bad And I don’t lose my breath when I walk across the room. Down 49 lbs and counting, so glad I had the surgery no found these blogs which have offered me so much support, device and ideas.

I was released to workout on weights around 6 weeks. I use the machines and free weights. I am three months out now and work out 1 to 1 1/2 hours 4-5 days a week. It really helps me lose weight and reduce stress. I am trying to get everything turned into muscle and it is working out well. I know I will still have some loose skin but my core will be tight.

Mine is the same

Mine is dark yellow like I m dehydrated, but I drink over 64 ounces every day.

Thank you for sharing with us. We understand what you are going through. This is a tremendous place to get support nd device. Best of luck to you.

I love my CPAP. But I have extremely bad apnea, 102.5 episodes an hour. It has been lifesaving for me so I tolerate it. I don’t know if I will ever lose enough to get rid of it. It would be nice traveling without lugging it around.

I am almost 3 months out from my bypass and food tastes even worse now. Very few things taste good to me. It is a struggle.

Thank you everybody for the comments. I think I am pushing myself to hard and need to pace myself. Next time I will approach it differently, and have my water and protein lose by so I can take periodic rest periods.

I have lost 42 lbs, but still have no stamina. Today I went out to pick up trash with a group and had to quit after 1 1/2 hours. This was after several rest stops. Will this get better with time? I am doing most weights at the gym, will doing more cardio help? Any suggestions on what has worked for you? Thank you.

500-650 calories. More than enough water. All supplements taken.

I didn’t have my significant pain and never took any painkillers after the surgery. I lost worked out quite a bit before my surgery and feel that helped.

I lifted but nowhere near the Olympic level. I love it and used it to get in shape before and after my surgery.

I hope you are okay.
