Mix it up!! Your body has adjusted to your routine!! Add exercises you do not usually do!! Cute carbs further or add veggies/protein in a different combo. Get your Protein in after one hour awake to boost metabolism!!! Water? ?? Follow your program but mix it up!!

I was stuck for a while in 190's but I increased Protein intake and hit cardio kind of hard. So my body started to shrink and numbers moved slowly. So, I learned to focus on results I can see. I can't see 3 lbs that I've lost but I can see the inches off my waist and arms n thighs and that my clothes were becoming huge. The scale is a monster sometimes don't let it be your focus. Follow your diet, when u are cleared to exercise do it with a purpose. 150 will come. I didn't even think I would see 170, lol but it had come n gone. Stay focused n work hard. You will be so proud of the end result physically and mentally.

You are so right! The scale is a monster. I put do much focus on it. Even though I feel it coming off. I need to do more cardio and up my Water intake. Thank you so much. I will go back and read your words of encouragement to keep me going.

Hi ... I waited until about 2 months before I started doing exercises. I did cardio 4 times week on my elliptical mostly n that really boosted the fat loss. I'm starting strength training now but I did nothing really to my stomach until maybe my 3rd or 4 th month then I started crunches n planks n then my son gave me a workout guide for abs about a month or so ago n I started it as well.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
