I am walking 3.5 miles on my treadmill every other day (about). What are or did you do at 3 months post op?

I think that's great! I'm almost 4 months or and am on week two of couch to 5k. I also have a personal trainer come 3x a week, 30 min twice and an hour on Saturday. I usually walk in addition to the c25k 5 times a week. My surgeon said as long as we're feeling good, we can do what we want.

I think I am just so lost on everything. I know there is no way I can afford the whole personal trainer thing

i go to the gym 4 days a week. I do 3 miles on random hills on the stationary bike then i do 30 mins random hills on the treadmill. I also use the machines or the kettle bells to get in weight training. I found a bunch of good simple exercises online and use these to get my areas of problem in order. No trainer since i too cannot afford one.

I've been very blessed, my trainer charges for her time, not per person, so a friend and I split her already reasonable rate. So I only spend about $80/month for her. (She trains my daughter as well)

Try Fitstar app, I have been using it over about 2 weeks and I love it. 2 workout sessions a week is free but if you want more then you have to pay but I like it because it increases in intensity the more you work out. But, I am also one of those people I can motivate myself, I just need the structure.

I can motivate myself too. I just get lost or too overwhelmed. I don't work. And I get exercised induced headaches and Migraines. And I think that might be where I get lost with what I can do. I push through with my treadmill.

That's the thing, I am so strapped for cash. I could barely afford the treadmill when I got it. I only got it because I had set the money aside to get it before I had surgery done. I am getting ready to possibly move again and I just moved back in November. It is so sad. Lol. I am a stay at home mom so I don't have extra income at this point. I just need other stuff to at home. I have been getting ideas on pinterest.

I Have a ton of DVDs and I used them before. They helped for a little bit but I am hoping now with surgery and hypothyroidism meds I can get it all taken care of better. of course the hypothyroidism didn't show up til about 2 weeks before surgery.

It helped me with the movement of my body, and the flexibility. I started out at 280 on 8/17/16 and I am now 221. I will say that it does tone up your muscles, and your muscles burn the fat... But muscles weigh more than fat. some days I get sad because the weight doesn't feel like it's coming off but I am losing more inches and I guess the weight will follow suit at some point.

I will get the that sometimes I started at 257lbs 10/21/16 (surgery) and now I am 216lbs. But I have a feeling that stall is coming. But when I feel that I am not losing weight I will take my measurements and so far I am down 33inches too.

Try "tone it up" videos on YouTube. They had a tv show before. They have great exercises.

Also Dr Mathew Weiner (weight loss/bariatric surgeon) has a good YouTube video on exercise.

Can you get some weights and just do strength training at home ? Or squats, lunges, etc..

      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?

      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
