Considering you're working out so much, have you had big problems with loose skin?

i have to lose 188 and work out 3-4 times a week so I'm hoping that will help

I started working out at 7 weeks post op because i wanted to avoid having so much extra skin. I still do have a little on my arms, inner thighs and stomach but im sure it would have been so much worse if i never started exercising.

You are so inspiring! Our stats are similar, except I'm just 8 weeks out today... nowhere near goal. I can only dream of looking half as good as you!

Hope you don't mind my asking what size jean you are wearing...

My surgeons diet was after the soft solids when i introduced solids was Protein and vegtables only till 3 months post op, then i was able to introduce fruit but only aloud one fruit a day and no carbs (bread,pasta and rice) till 6 months post op. Now i still stay on high protein lower carb diet, no real sugar only substitutes, greek yogurts, cheese sticks, eggs, whole grains and sweet potatoes only, i also try to drink as much Water as possible. Minimum of 64 oz to at least a gallon 120 oz.
I do love to use weights at the gym and im working on building muscle since that helps to burn fat.

Thank you! You can do it, just stay dedicated and dont give in to temptation. I dont mind...My jeans are a size 12 but they are getting loose. I started in a 5X/26/28 jean.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
