I don't think I have ever been so tired and so sore in my ENTIRE life. I am a week out from meeting with my surgeon and hopefully receiving a surgery date within the next 30 days. So I decided to jump into a workout regimen....A BOOTCAMP! Part of me feels like I need this workout and part of me feels like it's too much.

I believe I'm the biggest person in the class and I am truly struggling. Bouncing around with 300 on my back/knees is KILLER!! I hurt

1,

If I ever mention that I'm considering not having the surgery.....PLEASE...just say the work BOOTCAMP!!!!

Very true, thanks.

My biggest fear is being saggy and having no muscle at all

You're welcome.

As for the fears... Once you're cleared by your doctor, you can add some weight training to your exercise plan again. Even a little resistance training will help keep that muscle (Protein in the diet helps with this as well). And as for the sagging, it's up to your genetics. But they do say that exercising & weight training on a regular basis helps keep you better toned than if you did not workout at all.

if you're this committed now with boot camp, you will most likely be just as motivated post-surgery!

I weighed in and lost 8 lbs in 4 weeks. My trainer said I should've lost more so I gotta lot more work to do. *sigh*

Lost 5 more lbs in just two weeks. Excited

I have my surgery June 5th and like you I started working out before surgery to be ready for after it's been about two months now and I go everyday to gym for an hour or so and in 2 months have lost ONLY 10 pds I cried to my doctor and said really why only 10. He said right now your having surgery to help on what you couldn't do. Keep going to gym build up those muscles so after surgery it won't hurt so bad and motivation to keep going is already there.

We will make it and you are awesome to keep up with boot camp !! Keep up the great work
