When my grandson was 2 yrs old (2 yrs ago) my daughter had to run after him all the time. He was into everything as 2 year olds are.

She was so happy because she lost a lot of weight doing all this running around. she also had a 4 yr old and a 7 yr old. btw - these are the most beautiful and smartest grand-kids in the entire world :rolleyes:

all the work you do as a parent, running around et al, helped her lose alot of weight., was great for her figure. :lol:

you are doing great by walking around so much now. ask your dr. when you can do more excersize, weights etc. - all dr. say different things. Just be patient when he tells you to go, have fun ^_^

best wishes

I have a similar fear due to having a 5 year old. We have a gym where I live but no daycare. They even brought Zumba and Yoga to our complex but still no daycare. It's frustrating, I know. I'm planning to rent arm and leg workout videos from Netflix so I can do that stuff at home. With summer coming, I plan to get out walking with my daughter riding her bike or walking with me. Good Luck. Any suggestions are welcomed!

Put your child in a stroller and walk or put some music on and dance. What 2 year old doesn't like to act crazy and dance. That's all Zumba is. Plus it will tire him out and then you can both take naps. Lol my little ones love music and dancing around.

If you have cable, they usually have different workout programs available on demand. They will rotate but there's usually at least one cardio workout, fat burning, toning and yoga program available. Your kiddo(s) can do it with you! You'll get toned and they will learn healthy exercise habits.

Get yourself one of the large wheeled jogging strollers and make walking your daily exercise routine.

My 3 y/o would just hold my hand while we walk she does not like to be to far from me. I had my surgery in December so walking outside in the snow was hard. So i use to just use my eliptical Just have fun with him.

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
