I love kickboxing!! it really does tone your body and give you a sense of power! After each class, I felt like I could conquer the world. However, I over did it and developed planter fiscitis in my foot. Be sure to wear good shoes, take plenty of Water, a towel for the ton of sweat and have fun!

I was thinking of doing something like this to get my last 25 lbs off. I will keep an eye on your progress or maybe jump on this trek with you. How did you decide where to go ?

Years ago, I had the Billy Blanks kickboxing video. I really enjoyed it and used it frquently, but due to increasing arthritis (I was in my early 50's - I am 62 now) my doctor said to knock it off. Now that I am on this Sleeve journey, I work with a chair boxing video more appropriate to my physical challenges. I agree that boxing even without the kicking can give you quite a hearty workout. And yes, it is fun.

I currently do kickboxing now and my surgery is probably going to be scheduled for the end of June. How long do you think I'll be away from that high intensity workouts?

I had to put my martial arts training and kickboxing on hold for three months. Falls are bad. Forceful kicking/punching/twisting = bad.

Low intensity if fine after a few weeks, but kickboxing doesn't generally fall into that category unless you aren't doing it right. :D

Thanks! That helps. I'll have to double up before the surgery to get in my fill before hand :)

I teach that type of kickboxing. :D It's great fun, a huge stress reliever and wonderful for your body! ENJOY!!!

Only one class and I loved it. Get to have gloves and get to do it in bare feet and look snazzy in my karate outfit. Hahha

I just heard that the karate studios all do them and people love it

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

      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! 😞
