Pre workout and post workout supplements



Recommended Posts

Hi guys I know a bunch of you workout I was wondering about workout supplements. I do 40 min on elliptical at 10-10 intervals and 6-6 keeping my pulse between 135-150. The weight machines another 40 min. I do 5-6 days a week and I'm sore.

You may be sore but you are doing amazing.

I have reached goal now I'm working on my fitness goals.

Right now I'm at the gym 5 days a week.

Cardio I mix up (1) I jog on a treadmill for an hour at 6.0 per hour. OR (2) Eliptical for an hour on fat burn I have the resistance maxed at 20.

After cardio I am strength training for an additional hour. My trainer has me on an all over body program. My legs are much stronger than my upper body. I'm increasing weight and can see that I am finally making gains.

I do a Protein drink and liquid L-carnitine before a workout. a after workout recovery Protein Drink.

Here is some information on things to eat before and after work outs. (some of the info might not fit your bariatic plan right now)

@@jenn1 thank you that article has great ideas! I love to hear your fitness goal workout. Personal trainers are so expensive! I did three sessions. And will do it again as a reward for reaching my next goal weight

I understand the expense of gyms and trainers. The thought of not using my membership and still having to pay my monthly due's kills me. I cant take throwing money away. I guess its one way to keep me on track.

There are other options out there that cost nothing. I'm still amazed at what I can find online.

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
