Getting Back On Track



Recommended Posts

Hello Sleevers,

I finally decided to go to the gym for the first time in my life. I am still nervous and dread walking in there, but I need to continue with my weight loss. Long story short, I was sleeved 10/10 and lost 70 pounds without exercising at all (I am not proud of admitting to that). I started eating bad again and gained 7-10 pounds since June 2011. I just completed the 5 day pouch test and started the Leslie Sansome "Walk away the pounds" 1 mile. My 10 week body sculpt start Monday April 9.

Wish me luck,

Xs-2011

No sweats. I've lost 69 lbs without doing much exercise also. But I decided to start walking and going back to the gym tomorrow. I have so much more energy than before, also have started The Basic Boot camp diet by LilMissDiva and lost a couple ozs over night. So what I'm saying is, it's not too late and you can do this! ;)

One day at a time is my MO!

In my experience, if you exercise regularly (and challenge yourself), you can eat whatever you want. You'll like it, I'm sure!

I am in the same boat as you basically. I lost 125 pounds or thereabouts with little to no exercise at all and now I have been hovering around 265 up a few, down a few since January.

I even have 3 months free at the YMCA and I have yet to go yet. I have been eating lot of wrong things all in small portions so I haven't gained anything back yet.

I need to get myself moving and stop eating like an idiot. Good Luck to you and send some exercising energy my way!!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
