So im 7 months out, and I reached the 100lb milestone today! Went from a size 20 to an 8! Most importantly, I've never felt better.

Yes, a lot, 6 classes a week, plus I walk between 2-3 miles a day. Maybe a little obsessive? I think this took over for food. I am, however, 53, so I don't think I bounced back as well.

Congrats

Did u excercise or just been watching what u eat? If u have been excercising what excercises? I m 3 weeks out lost about 12 pounds, started excercise yesterday and seem to have stalled!

I've been exercising as well, i didnt start exercising until 2 months out when i was cleared by my surgeon. I do about 30min of cardio 3x a week (elliptical) and then i started lifting weights. I do arms and back 2 days a week, and leggs and abs 2 days a week. Sometimes i throw in a third day of abs if i can. I like working with free weights and body weight exercises like planks, curls, crunches, dips, ect. I do still feel a little weak from the surgery, but im trying to build up my strength. 12 lbs is good for 3 weeks, my surgeon told me the average is about 4lbs/week. I lost a lot faster, but i had a really tough time in the beginning and couldn't get much of anything down. It took about 2 months for me to be okay eating and drinking the recommended amount. I had stalls randomly too, but dont let it discourage you! Good luck on your journey!
