That is fantastic! I started 2 months after I was banded and it just helped melt the weight. I never thought I would say I love working out but now I feel like a slug if I miss more than one day a week! Good luck on your journey!

Awesome!!!

The benefits last far outside the time in the gym. An hour workout raises your metabolism for as much as 48 hours, even while sleeping.

You also end up with more energy in general, so you are more likely to do the little things around the house and yard you've been avoiding, which burns even more calories.

Keep it up!

Two months ago was my 1st day, and I will have to say that if I would have known that it would be like this, I would have been going all along. I was full of energy during and well into after I left the gym. I do not view it as a chore at all. I kow that I am going to feel more enegy afterwards on top of feeling better about myself. When I first started, I did not have a MP3 player, and it sucked, but once I got me some music going. It made it a blast. Be sure to download fat as well as slow songs for your cardio, and cool downs.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
