Did 45 min walk, 1.5 mile bike (which isn't alot but a start) and 30 min dancing just dance with the kids and it felt great. Was banded on 12/18. Had my first fill last week. And got the clear to workout. Just a start but better than nothing right?

It's WAY better than nothing, that's great!!

Don't downplay your hard work! That's a lot of exercise and you should be very proud!

That's Awesome! Your moving and enjoying it! I'm excited for you, your on the road to success!

Thank you. Can't wait to start toning and such. Is the key to help with your skin? IM only 34 and hoping I don't have a huge problem with excess skin.

I think some is genetics! I also lost weight relatively slow, so I'm not sure if that helped! I think exercise and toning probably plays a part of it to. I think the healthier you do it the better your results will be. Stay hydrated and drink your Water, there is nothing better for your skin and body than water! I have gained weight from my goal weight, however, for the 4 years I was at goal I was not in need of any nip or tuck!

Awesome thank you do much. I used to power lift when I was young and now starting baby steps everything feels foreign to me. Got the way I am for poor choices in life and IM not going back. Love the advice especially from a seasoned person as yourself.
