    Struggling to exercise

    Just do what you can and don't pressure yourself to go past your limit. I'm 6 weeks out and walk 1.5miles a day. I was hoping I'd be back to my regular 3miles a day by now, but I've blacked out a couple of times. Yesterday I added an additional 500 steps to my walk and got dizzy on my way home :/ Your diet is the biggest driver of weight loss. Exercise helps, but it's not critical, so if you're struggling then take it slow. Anything is better than no activity at all.

    Is it normal to feel this awkward?

    I am embarrassed that I can't do it on my own. I'm successful at everything else, but I've never been successful with my weight. You're not alone! Sent from my XT1254 using BariatricPal mobile app

    Should I force myself to eat more?

    My NUT said she wanted me at 1000 calories by 6 months, that extended time under 1000 calories is not good long term. She said that I should work up to 1200-1400 calories by 1 year out.

    Who does races?

    Tough Mudder and Spartans are a lot of fun but way harder than racing in my humble opinion! Toughest thing I ever did, but totally worth it!

    Who does races?

    There ar a lot of apps with decent training plans. Have you run before? One mistake new runners make is to start too fast and then get discouraged. When starting you should be able to speak in full sentences....if not, your going too fast. Overtime your cardiovascular strength will improve and you can push harder, faster. Make sure you allow time to build up your endurance.

    Anyone regretting this?

    I am doing the work - getting my fluids and protein in, walking, doing more every day. My surgeon said the same things about the two different surgeries. I finally agreed to the RNY because I didn't want to have a second surgery. Thanks for the virtual attitude adjustment! I needed that! Sent from my SM-N915V using BariatricPal mobile app
