  • I'm 34 and 5'7. I am starting to see loose skin and I don't think any amount of working out will help it....but honestly, it doesn"t bother me at all, I've learned quite a while ago to love my body ,

  • I had the sleeve, surgery was much easier than I thought it would be. Surprised me how great I felt and how soon. Sent from my SM-G920W8 using the BariatricPal App

I do work out. I started late, did mostly just walking for the first 3 months. At about 4 months post op I started the gym and hated it. Sooo instead of attempting to drag myself to something I hated, I found things I like instead. I tried a fitness class and I loved it. So I've been doing about 4 to 5 one hour classes a week (anything from Zumba, Yoga, Pilates, Spin, weight class, kickboxing...)

The key for me was finding things I like doing.

I'm 5'7 and I don't really have a goal weight other than wanting to be at a healthy BMI. That would bring me to 159, so I guess that is my goal and once I reach it, I may reassess.
