Bikram Yoga and the Lap Band



Recommended Posts

Last night I attended my very first yoga class, and on top of that it was bikram yoga!!!

Holy Moly, I've never been so hot and sweaty in my entire life.

Anyway, I was eating my dinner about half an hour after the class and managed to get a bit of a stuck episode.. At first I thought it was just me not chewing properly as tends to happen when I am beyond hungry. However, I continued to vomit until around midnight - even with no food left in the tank.

I am wondering if it is more the shock to the system with being in that intense heat, or even if the band could possibly tighten during such exercises??

I've woken up fine and have had no issues with eating or drinking anything today.

I'd love to know your thoughts or even if you can offer some advice about this??

I had a beginner hot yoga class but the temp was warm, not hot. But the reason I didn't keep going was my LOUD knees. We held poses for several minutes, and my cracking knees sounded like a machine gun. I couldn't help but burst out laughing uncontrollably. Since I am sure I was a disruption to the class, I dropped yoga and decided walking was more my thing.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
