Thank you. I try to get at least 5000+ steps a day. I'm aiming to get to 10000+ soon.

You are doing great already, maybe you are more motivated than you think you are

Thank you! Sometimes I just feel like I'm not doing enough. Or that the weight should be coming off faster [emoji1745]

I've just discovered a young man on Facebook who does free, live workouts daily. Or you can catch the replay on YouTube. I do the workout for seniors because it's doable for me right now. Check it out: TheGuruofAbs. Fun, easy, just moving more than I have been.

I found some beginners low impact cardio on YouTube, all standing up. I try to do most mornings for 30 minutes indoors. I started doing some exercises I found for bat wing, tricep strengthening using resistance bands and 3 pound barbells.

Stats: 5'1", age 67, female. Highest weight: 245. BMI 41. Surgery Date: May 28, 2020. Weight at surgery: 211.

I’m taking private Zoom Pilates classes 2x a week. The expense and having someone waiting for me is a strong incentive.

I take my dogs for daily run/walks. We’ve been going for shorter one because I don’t want them to get heat stroke, but at least we get out daily.

That’s what motivates me. Set appointment times really help me.

Early morning is key for me. If I wait it’s not going to happen. So now that COVID is here - I walk in the am with my husband. Started at 30 mins but now we do between that an an hour. We also just bought a rower-but that is going to take some time before I get going longer than 15 mins. They’re hard!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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?

      April Surgery
      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
