Last minute jitters?



Recommended Posts

If this trainer is trying to sell some diet to you (something you have to pay for) then not only would I discontinue his services but would inform the managment of the gym. My guess is they don't know he is setting up his own side business using their customers.

Slightly off topic. I go swimming an hour a day/7 days a week. I'm really not into classes of any kind. Too much like high school and I always feel uncomfortable because as the fat chick I could'nt keep up. While the Water aerobics class at my gym are made of of people of all body types and ages; still not my thing. I also like to work out to music (water proof MP3 player is the best thing in the world), and the classes don't use music. Most of the instructors for these classes really try to push me into taking their classes. While they are part of my membership (so free) I just don't want to do them. I think however they may get paid by how many people take the class (or are afraid low attendance will mean the class is cancelled and I think they are contractors). Kind of irritates me because I want to go swimming and not get nudged about joining these classes. Sorry just venting.

Rachel,

You're doing the right things and asking the right questions. You're knowledge and information base is already deeper than mine was at your stage. You are setting yourself up for success! Good luck and stay focused.

Honk, vent on my sister!

Brad, thanks again for your advice and support! I feel like I still don't know everthing that I need to know, but I know part of the journey is post-surgery.

I am still nervous about the eating portion and PBing.

Now that I know that I can keep my energy levels up with Protein, I feel confident that the work out portion will not as much of an issue as i thought it might be.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
