I have walking since day 2 of my surgery. I start slow for 15 min and worked my way up to 2 miles a day. For a month I was doing a zumba class and 2 circuit classes a week along with the walking. It stalled my loss, I was told by my doctor it was too much, so I stopped as of last week and my loss have started already. I am still walking but no classesfor now. My advice is to start slow work your way up but not too much. -

Hello everyone I was sleeved on 1/14. I am now down 27lb, from week 6-7 I only loss 1.4 lbs,I was hoping to be at 30lb loss at the end 0f my 7 week. I have started working out and I have noticed inches shedding off but the scale is not moving. I am having a problem with getting all my protein and liq. requirements in. I try to eat more but the full feeling is a horrible feeling. -

Has anyone tried Isopure Protein Drinks?
shockley2589 replied to Aunt GG's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I tried the isopure unflavored protein podwer and that too is aweful! When they say unflavored I think they mean it is not vanilla but to me it has a flavor and a smell. I tried it every way possible and just couldn't stand it. I now make my own using a vanilla protein podwer (can't remember the brand) which is 30g per scoop. I like to mix it with a cup of low sugar almond milk and a Lil ice. -
How does it feel?
shockley2589 replied to LovelyLife's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am 4 weeks out 20 lbs lighter and OMG it feels great! I was a Lil concern that I was losing slow but I think now I'm average. I have so much energy, I want to go exercise now. I smile a lot more now that I don't see my cheeks when I smile. It is an awesome feeling!! -
Hi i am in my fifth week, I have to take milk of magnesium. I use to be regular but not anymore. I noticed after my surgery I had a problem with my breath, I started taking the mom and no more bad breath! I guess after the surgery a good cleaning needs to be done. The mom does the trick everytime an I take it once a week.

I have tried the grape and couldn't make it through the full bottle. To me it is very dry and left me it an after taste. I do know at GNC if you purchase something and not satisfied you can return it, but just verify before purchasing.
