I was walking every day after surgery. Would go to the mall and walk a few laps. I was give the ok to lift after a month. I am now 4 months out and tried insanity and I am no were near were I need to be to do that yet. I have lost 107lbs so far and run every day and lift weights, I lasted about 20 mins into the first tape and all the jumping bothered my knee and just wasnt to the point you need to be to do that.

Your body should guide your decision. If you are not in pain (real physical pain as opposed to the "this workout sucks!" kind of pain) it should be fine. You may only be able to do a very short amount, but we all have to start somewhere. Only do what you can comfortably do without hurting yourself. When in real doubt consult your doctor and whatever you do, have a fun time with it! The process is difficult. But creating these habits can be fun too. :)

You can always modify how you do it. You don't have to jump as high or be as intense as the people in the video. You can aim to do 20 minutes of a 40 minute tape. I know people who are in shape and work out who couldn't do the full P90x program their first time. I plan to start P90x in July. I will do a slowed down modified version for the first 90 days. Then I plan on doing it again after I complete it with a little more intensity (hopefully).

highest weight = 228 DOS = 219 CW = 201 DOS was May 7th 2013

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
