My doctor only has given me the "ok" to walk. Then our weather got cold & wintery.. So, to answer your question 'am I working out?' No. I try to do enough walking indoors all day, and I am looking for alternative exercises.

I'm still recovering from the surgery, so it's slow going

Thanks for the encouragement!!

For anyone that is looking into having RNY surgery...look at what it has done for me...

In April of this year I weighed in at 309lbs. I was devistated. I was wearing 24/26 clothes that were tight! Well in just 7 short months this is where I am now 188lbs and wearing a size 12. I have about 23 more pounds to go until I get to my goal of 165 (I am 5'9 so that is a BMI 25) and for Thanksgiving this year...I am jogging/walking in my FIRST 5k. I am so excited I can't hardly wait. I AM SO THANKFUL FOR MY RNY. It has changed my life FOREVER and I am so happy with the results that I have had. Here is some before and now photos.

Congratulations

Hi Christi question for ya did you have any problem consuming the Protein, are there days that you did not really do what ur surgeon said, or could not get the Water in. You look great, and basically did you have any set backs.

Amazing Christi.... may I ask how's your skin?

Lol the skin is another issue. I have a lot of hanging skin. My breast, upper arms, thighs ans stomach are the worst. Hopefully time will be kind and get rid of the extra skin.

I had trouble in the beginning getting everything in. I was pretty good by about 1 month out. Now I have trouble sticking to my routine. If I stick to my routine all goes well. When life happens I just go with it and try to get back in track as soon as I can. I am still doing the same Protein as I did when I came home from the hospital. I try not to mix things up a lot. When I do, sometimes it doesn't work and sometimes I dump...so I just stick to what works for me.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
