Good for you! I have been walking, but recently joined a gym. It had been good for my entire family. I am trying to schedule to be there everyday for at least an hour. You are an inspiration

Thank you!! That makes me feel so good. I hope your family enjoys going to gym. I kinda do it in sections, I have to do 30 minute no matter what. Then if I feel good after that I go for 45 minutes and eventually make it to an hour. I usually do the treadmill, but I do the bike when my husband goes with me on his days of from work. I do the treadmill a lot because it is only piece of equipment that I can get my heart rate high enough on. I tried the elliptical but I have had 6 surgeries on my lower back and it's just not the machine for me. I plan on getting a real bicycle at Christmas time. We rode the bike trails where I live for 15 miles a couple of weeks ago. I was tired but it was fun. Remember to start out slow, you don't have to be a hero the first time there. Choose a goal and work towards that. My goal was to be able to walk over 3 miles on the treadmill and I met that this week. I don't plan on being a runner but I sure can walk fast. Make working out fun and the time will go by really fast.

      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! 😞
