Hi!

If there is anyone out there that lives in or near Alexandria, VA and would like to get together to exercise once or twice a week, please let me know! :D I am just staring my 6 month supervised program. However, ANYONE is welcomed, wether you are just starting like me, you are pre-op, or post-op!

I figure it'll be fun to workout together and support each other! :P

**Suggestions welcomed too!!**

:wub:

Simply.torri, I miss home too! I use to live in Arlington, Va, But now I live in Cali and its hard to find workout partners. I work out with my 14 year old daughter. She's my motivation. Hang on there. You'll find someone. Good luck!

I started that program before I decided on WLS so it is just how it worked out...........then I decided in July to move forward as my last year was not successful at all.

I understand. People keep telling me that with my new CPAP machine, the 6 month supervised diet and exercise, i might not need the surgery. But i feel the same... well the last 20 years have been unsuccessful, im not gonna rely on this diet this time, and i am moving forward with the surgery as well.

What is your surgery date? do you have one yet?

Also.... how did you put up your before/after pic? I cant figure it out!!! lol

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
