Doing great so far....ill be 10 weeks post op this week and I'm currently down 75 lbs (25 lbs lost pre op). Feel excellent! How about you?

That is an awesome loss!! I am 2 months tomorrow and down 26lbs. (maybe more I will weigh tomorrow morning) However, this was a revision for me. I had an RNY in 2004. Revision to RNY 6/28/12. I feel great and went back to work after 1 week 2 days. (I have a sit down job) I need to get better with my exercise. Have you contacted Joe for your exercise consultation?

Yes had my consult on Saturday.

How was the consultation? How long was it? I found the paper with the next support group date of 9/6/12 at 6pm It is at North East Heath and Fitness Institue 1090 NorthEast Gateway Court in Concord.

I won't be able to go to that one as there is a meeting at the children's school that night.

It lasted about an hour....he has you do a walking test to see how much your heart rate and bp goes up. Then he shows you some toning exercises with the bands, tubes and ball. Also goes over how many cals you burn per minute doing certain activities at your current weight. He was really nice....nice to look at too ;-)

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
