Thanks! Yes - I use an app called InstaCollage, but there are many different ones. Just got to your App Store and type in Collage and it should pull em all up. -

Compliments are hard to take. Not worthy?
Redesigned_Curves replied to Suzzie81498's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I feel the same way! I am not ashamed that I have the band and will openly tell people...except when it comes to where I work. I have had a lot of people complementing me lately at work and a couple people have even told me that I inspired them and I feel SO guilty. Like I'm not being honest. I'm almost 3 months post op, with no fills, and wk out 7-9 times a wk, but still feel so uncomfortable when someone compliments me. -
Thinking of getting a personal trainer
Redesigned_Curves replied to Michele12's topic in Fitness & Exercise
I work out with a personal trainer about 4 days a week and I love it! He pushes me and gets me to do things I would never think to do. I am a creature of habit so I get bored really easy, but he changes things up and I never know what to expect and therefor do not get bored. I actually look forward to working out. Even when they scale is only creeping along I am still noticing major changes in my body. -
Types of excersizes 6 days post op?
Redesigned_Curves replied to jazzmattazz's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am about 2 1/2 months post op and get light headed a lot when working out. Not really sure why. I have upped my calorie intake some and I think that has helped a little. As for Protein shakes I have found that the pre-mixed ones, although more expensive, are much better and way easier. Walmart has one called Pure Protein that is by far my favorite! -
Will I need a Tummy Tuck?
Redesigned_Curves replied to DisneyMama's topic in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
It just depends...everyone is different. A lot of factors go into it: How long you have been heavy, how fast you gained the weight, how much weight you loose, how fast you loose it, etc.. -

MIDSECTION WEIGHT LOSS STRUGGLE/ PCOS
Redesigned_Curves replied to supersweet31's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was working out twice a day & eating between 900-1100 calories and the scale was not moving. Last week I worked out the same, cardio in the morning and weight lifting in the afternoon. I started eating 1400-1700 calories, still healthy foods, and lost 2.8lbs. -
MIDSECTION WEIGHT LOSS STRUGGLE/ PCOS
Redesigned_Curves replied to supersweet31's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
If you are working out harder than before you may need to adjust your calorie intake up a little bit. I had the same issue. I was working out twice a day and the scale was not moving. I added a little more calories to my diet and was down 2.8lbs this last week. -
I am only about 3 months along, not sure how good of a mentor I would be. But I would love to be an accountability partner/

Working Out Vs Calorie Intake
Redesigned_Curves posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have been working out 2 times a day, cardio in the morning and weight lifting in the afternoon. I find that I have been getting light headed during my weight training. I am eating between 900-1100 calories a day and everyone tells me that I am not eating enough. I am worried that I am creating to much of a calorie deficit. I don't want to give up working out, but I also don't know how I can eat more without defeating the purpose of the band. Does/has anyone else have this issue? Any suggestions? -

Working Out Vs Calorie Intake
Redesigned_Curves replied to Redesigned_Curves's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I work with a trainer 4 days a week doing the weight lifting. I felt like I wasn't getting any/enough cardio which is why I started doing cardio in the morning. My trainer is telling me I need to eat more which is hard to wrap my head around. The logical part of my brain understands, but the fat girl in me doesnt. -
Working Out Vs Calorie Intake
Redesigned_Curves replied to Redesigned_Curves's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I usually only do double sessions Mon-Fri and rest on the weekends. I only get light headed when doing the weight lifting. This even happened when I was only doing the weight lifting and no morning cardio so I wouldn't think its so much over training, but what do I know. Monday I ate more and that seemed to help. Its just a hard thing to wrap your brain around needed to eat more to loose weight. Thanks Everyone! -

Redesigned_Curves replied to DELETE THIS ACCOUNT!'s topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
That is awesome!!!! -
How many incisions do they make when you have port revision? One grl one this form that I talk to had the band done 3/6/13 and she said they put her port in her arm pit. I had never heard of that either.
-
That is like the UP band from Jawbone that I have! I love mine and that looks really similar. Good choice!!
