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

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.

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 love lifting weights and as soon as I am released to do more exercise plan on hitting them again. I had bypass Feb 2 so am walking and riding the bike right now but getting antsy.

I would bet you’re smaller than a 36 band size! I think I remember you mentioning plastic surgery? I had mine in January. My poor boobs were just empty sacks. Now post PS I’m a 32F. They’re awesome :) I can go braless if I like and they stay put. 

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.

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

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.

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.

Wiping my own butt without breaking my back trying to reach 🤦🏼‍♀️

I just got a package delivered with a bunch of chips, jerkey and gummies from you. The quality of items you sell are so much better than any I have tried before. You have my business!
