Hi everyone! Thank you so much for the support. 30 Day Shred is by Jillian Michaels. It is circuit training. 6 minute intervals 3 circuits in each level. It has 3 levels, I did each level for 10 days. I wish I could train with Jillian this girl gets results! I will be starting Ripped in 30, and I also started her kickboxing yesterday. I am taking the next few days before I start another toning programs. I am going to start my next 30 days on Monday Aug 16. Thank you all! I am just awe struck by all the well wishes!!!!!

you look great I have done the shred before and plan to complete it for the first time after my sleeve but I am wondering when it will be ok to start? what do you think? I was thinking jillian would do a job on any hanging skin issues and you just proved that indeed she will you look like you got a freaking tummy tuck! if you guys are interested they often have her videos on groupon. Any advice about how long to wait will be greatly appreciated i love (in the completely hate way) her videos but people say they are so tired after the surgery i wonder about being able to do it. I am scheduled for tomorrow, and my surgeon says exercise asap but im not sure thats what he means.

I was told to start walking right away but any exercise that involved your core had to wait til 6 weeks out. So check with your Dr. Best of luck tomorrow!!

how soon after sleebe did u start exercising and what did you start with?

I started 3 weeks after, just doing the treadmill. Once I got within 40lbs I started a toning program.

I started exercising 3 weeks after I was sleeved. Just the treadmill. I didn't even attempt a toning program until I was 40lbs from goal. I am not a stranger to WLS, I have plenty of experience. This is my second time and boy oh boy have I learned. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to PM me I can answer anything you need. Good luck tomorrow. It's a new beginning! :-)

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
