Treadmill with some eliptical. I try to exercise 4 days a week but sometimes 5. Since I do that I realize more if the choices of what I eat because I think of how long it would take me to burn those calories. It has also helped with dealing with anger, stress, and sometimes depression when it comes to life and relationship with food! Good luck!

I hate exercise. I have a Mifit band that tracks my walking and tells me how many calories I've burned. I just keep increasing my steps per day. I love that it takes into account the normal walking I do around the house or shopping etc. I've lost 43lbs so far at 9 weeks out and even stalled for 2 of those weeks. as long as I'm losing i'm not going to think about any other form of exercise. good luck!

I am going back to playing tennis on Monday which is my 3 week anniversary. Dr. said I could resume playing when my drain insertion hole was fully closed at 3-4 weeks. For me, someting social, fun and competitive is more fun. I play 3 times a week. I also walk my English Bulldog 1/2 hour a day in the evening. Here in Arizona it is so hot it is hard to get much exercise outdoors this time of year.

I LOVE zumba! I bought one of the zumba games for the wii and do it at home at least 40 minutes a day. My goal is to incorporate a 30 minute walk into my schedule before work as well, but I haven't been able to get up that early so far this week :P

Too hot in Arizona is right, I love here too! Inside exercise only status point!

I go to the gym 4-5 times a week for 90 minutes of treadmill, nu-step, and recumbent bicycle exercise. I will start weight training next week (6 weeks out). I go to a cardiac rehab gym that has a bariatric program and they keep track of your BP, HR, etc while you exercise. I'll be 65 soon so I appreciate the extra care. It only costs $15 a month so it's a bargain! On the days I don't go, I use an old "walk away the pounds" CD. This has really helped me start moving again. Before surgery just the time it took to stand and take a shower caused excruciating back pain. Since losing 40 lbs (yay!) I have no back pain at all!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
