Fell off the wagon months ago

I was sleeved on 03/12/12...I have lost a total of about 60 lbs...I admit I never did get the will power or motivation to workout and I know that is the reason why I lost only that. I am extremely disappointed in myself for not doing my part so please keep ur negative comments to your self. I hope its not too late to start now. Any suggestions on how to begin a workout so late into it?

  • Just start. Set some goals that are achievable and start working towards them. It may have to do with a yoga class, playing a new sport such as tennis, running a half mile, taking a strength tra

    I'd like to piggyback on Delta. Write your goals down, make a big lofty goal, then break that big goal down into small manageable steps. Put all the little steps in order like a time line. Then t

I was in the same boat. I wasn't exercising at all but I am now at a point that it is not just falling off. I just kept looking for something to do that was fun I finally settled on Zumba and Just dance at home.

Love those...but must admit.....the Zumba isnt as fun at home. but boy do u work up a sweat!! especially with Just Dance too. Love that one. I want the Hip Hop dance workout. :)

I'm the same way I feel like i feel off the wagon . I was sleeved on 12/30/11 and down 60 i want to lose another 50. I think what I also need to do is see a new nutritionist .Hopefully with that and getting back in the gym will do the trick.

How are you doing?

I was sleeved on 2/19 and also can't exercise like I wanted but due extensive neurosurgery. I also have lost 60lbs. However, my nut told to get a lifecycle which can be used for the arms and legs and is a real workout. She explained that while most people will slow down after 3 months, I will start and consistently lose more weight in month 4-6. My wife bought a recumbent bike and a Pilates machine for me with the approval of my neurosurgeon and as an early 25th anniversary present. Good luck to you.

Go back to your Doctor the have people that can help you with a restart.GOD BLESS. PRAYERS.

We all must believe that it is never too late. Never. This is a lifelong journey that will have it's ups and downs. I am three months out, and have hit stalls and have strayed from recommendations at times. But so far I plug ahead, learn from my mistakes, and hold myself accountable for what I do and what I eat.

You have lost 60 pounds and don't forget that in itself is a success. But do get your head in the game. Don't keep beating yourself up, but rather focus on the days just ahead of you and make some changes. We are all part of a really big team, and there are many here that will support and encourage you. Good Luck.... you can do this.
