I started simple cardio on a stationary bike. Now, I ride 11 miles in 30 minutes, 4 days a week. I've also added strength training....I was sleeved March 2nd.

I am 4 weeks post op and am still really really weak. How did you start working out. Any ideas other than walking? I have resistant bands and ball 2lb weights and a hula hoop.

I was also still very weak at 4 weeks post op. What you are experiencing is quite common. Don't let it worry you, because now I have more energy than I know what to do with. Just start slow, take your time building yourself up. You will get to a point where you're doing a lot more and soon. Walking and stationary bikes, even ellipticals should be fine for you right now.

True maturity comes with recognizing your weaknesses and flaws. True strength comes with admitting your weaknesses and flaws, and correcting them.

[LilMissDiva Irene 3,281]

Growth won't happen until you look inside yourself, accept you're human and make changes. I don't lie to myself. I take my faults and negatives, throw it out to the Universe and like a boomerang it ALWAYS comes back to me making me stronger and more positive. <3 Good morning Vertical Sleeve Talk!! Whatever you do today, do the right thing.

[LilMissDiva Irene 3,281]

For without honesty there cannot be healing. Without healing there will never be growth. And without growth we will always be doomed to keep making those same mistakes.

Yes you can drink Slim Fast shakes... though I would encourage perhaps another option. They are very high in sugar. Have you tried the Atkins RTD? I find them very tasty

[pooh 31]

Yes i have them to..

To LOSE the weight, you will have to GAIN: Strength, Motivation, Determination, A willing mind, An unyielding heart, An unfailing spirit, and constant thankfulness for all the goodness in your life. You must FEED yourself daily with healthy nourishment, Water, positive words, love, physical activity and encouragement & being lead in the right direction from your supporters, whoever they are.
