I'm 4 months out. I'm having issues watching what I eat to lose some weight. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I had to freeze my gym membership for arthritis flare up in my knee and I feel I've gone backwards. I can start the gym again in about 10 days. Until then I need to try to do something. The depression is setting in because I feel horrible with how I let myself go and how I look.

You don't need to go to the gym to work up a sweat! Look for chair exercises on youtube. You can do a lot of core, upper-body and even some leg exercises without putting any weight on your knee. Good luck!

Hey there, I feel your pain, I too had to take break from the gym for medical reasons and going back was tough like starting over, but it had to be done (although I got a promo deal so i couldn't freeze my membership)

What are you eating these days?

I'm not motivated with eating. I found some at home fitness thing on Amazon prime that I'm starting tomorrow to get me started to go back to the gym. I want to make sure I'm strong enough to start Barre class again. I know once I'm back at my gym schedule, the eating will get better because I'll be more motivated.

      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!!
