When I started this journey I did 30 min elliptical everyday and 30 min weights 3x a week. Now I hike, take yoga, Pilates, power classes, dance and Zumba classes. I'm usually at the gym hour and half to two hours a day. I also walk walk walk I just make sure I keep moving, even with the desk job I have. I am soon to start running (huge fear of mine) because I want to run in my first marathon in 2017!

Just try different things and hopefully you will find something you really enjoy .

    I walked. People who exercise in general lose slower and it is harder to manage balance your calories.

    Nothing is going to save you from sagging skin if your skin is stretched out. If you have excess stretched skin you can't build enough muscle to fill it.

    I started walking 30 minutes a day after surgery until I got to my required hour. I bumped up to 3 different types of cardio machines. Pushing the resistance up as I progressed.

    I will always have my skin issues. Honestly, its not as bad as I had imagined. Building muscle from weight lifting is a game changer.

    I'm now two and a half years out from surgery. I do cardio for the first hour. Weight lifting my second hour 5 days a week.
