    Stomach exercises?

    My trainers say that weights are more important than cardio. So if anything, you should start weights as soon as you can. I do circuit training, it's working very well

    Michigan anyone?

    Wow, 144! Congrats! I hope I will be able to say the same at that point! I don't go, either, I live 30mins away. If you ever do go, let me know!

    Hey, guys! First, Dr. Kia is AMAZING. It is a well oiled machine at McLaren, you guys have nothing to worry about. Oh, and here is a tip that I got from my mom that worked for me: eat GUMMY BEARS during your 48hr liquid diet. The sugar coats your stomach and you WILL NOT have nausea! I didn't have any! Three nurses are fantastic, especially the male night nurse! Dave the P.A. is great too. Tell Eunice I said HAAAAY! The only thing that sucks is the food that you're able to eat. That potato soup taste is still in my mouth-yuck! They do have support groups, you will get the schedule at the final appt before surgery.

    Average Weekly Weight Loss?

    I'm 7weeks out...I hit a stall for a coulee of weeks, but since last Friday I came out of it and lost 8lbs! I'm down 43 in total. I keep hearing that some people continue to drop non-stop, but that hadn't been the case for me. I have changed my exercise routine and upped my protein, so maybe that is working...

    April 2013 Post-Op Group

    Hey guys, I had my surgery on April 2nd! I'm down 35lbs, but I have hit a stall point and have stayed at the same weight for almost 2 weeks now. I'm trying to increase my protein and change my exercise habits. But, it's discouraging!

    What Foods Do You Dump With?

    Tomato juice, well any veggie juice makes me dump! Unfortunately, sweets and fried foods do not. Lol!

    Hello ladies! I had a 1.5 month delay, but I finally had my rny done on 4/2/13! Dr Kia was my surgeon, he's amazing! I have not had any nausea or horrible gas pains at all! I would recommend him to everyone! I live in east Lansing, so if you would like to get together let me know!

    I'm fresh off my surgery, still in the hospital due to anemia. I will ask my Dr too

  13. So, my nurse practitioner told me that my surgery may be delayed because I am anemic. I have been taking ferrous sulfate 3 times per day for a week now. Had anyone else had this issue?

    Great! Tonya the nurse practitioner told me that they may have to delay my surgery because I am anemic. I hope not.

    no more lurking!

    Thanks! They're saying that I am anemic, so they may have to delay my surgery. I sure hope not!
