I made a trip to the Dr. today for my 1 week followup. 20 pounds down and the Dr. says that everything is going great! I am going to start hitting the treadmill tomorrow and start to get these bones moving more.

Great news MDGibbs - keep up the good work and make the treadmill a regular part of your day -- if that isn't fun, find some exercise that is! Keep us posted on your progress.

I am glad to hear you are doing so well. Listen to an iPod or watch a good tv show or something while doing the treadmill, it makes the time go by a lot faster. I found if I just do the treadmill and have nothing to keep me entertained, I get a bit bored.

Gibbs, I am so happy for you!! Start slow, a little at a time, and music/tv helps pass the time.

Susan, that is my problem now, the treadmill is getting boring, even with my music..instead of 1 hr, it's 30 min now, and I missed yesterday. Dang, I should go right now!

Steph, I tried reading while on the treadmill, as I have heard of a lot of people doing that, but it literally made me sick to my stomach. So, instead, I plan on doing it when I know my favorite shows are on tv, as they keep me entertained.

Yup, isn't that the truth, I rush to gym just to make sure i get a tv treadmill, if i'm out of luck i go to the ordinary ones and let me tell you, trying to lip read from the overhead tv's isn't much fun especially when you look down and realize you've ONLY been on it 3 minutes out of 45! Ugh:confused:

My gym has tvs in front of all the cardio equipment. There are other gyms that would cost me less, but I have to have those tvs. Sometimes I plan my gym time

according to what I want to watch on tv.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
