Sometimes it can be the impact your feet moving and hitting the ground with the weight impact on the back. Try the cross trainer as you can get the same workout without the impact.

Sometimes we get excited by seeing the scale fall and purposely reduce calaries to such an extent that we can hardly move because of lack of energy. The best success is something that's sustainable low calaries at 350 a day is not sustainable. Please increase your calaries and remember this is not a crash diet but a long term lifestyle change. Good luck.

Welcome abroad you will find your journey to be very interesting and challenging, you will have your ups and downs, good times and bad, remember the surgery only meets you half way the rest is in your mind. There will be times you can hardly eat and there will be times you wonder how you ate so much. You will get to the weight you want only if you really want it bad enough. Good luck.

I think this is one of my greatest weaknesses failing to plan. This article is a great wake up call.

Weight loss can be mentally draining so I...
AussieSam replied to AussieSam's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I have to agree with Alex and Elizabeth that the exercise is burning me out both physically and mentally so the break is doing my mindset great. -

I Just Want To Cry
AussieSam replied to LousPeachy's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I know this might sound crazy but a friend once told me if you in that emotional eating mode and can't find a way to stop eat something you don't like and that might stop you from over eating. -
Things I look forward to..

It's hard to think of anything.. I'll give it some thought. -

AussieSam replied to AussieSam's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I totally agree with you if one doesn't trick the body by varying calories and changing exercise then the body simply gets used to whatever your doing. -

I forget not to eat especially when I walk through the kitchen.

diet 80% and exercise 20% or is it ?
AussieSam replied to AussieSam's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I drink about 140oz and when I think of food the stomach says to me don't you dare I'm already full thanks to the Water. -

AussieSam replied to AussieSam's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I don't agree with this part at all, or, at least, that is definitely not my experience. Exercise makes me MORE hungry, because it results in your body requiring more energy in the form of calories. Eat lots of Protein and drink a lot of Water and it shouldn't make you hungrier. -

diet 80% and exercise 20% or is it ?
AussieSam posted a topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
A lot of people believe exercise is only 20% of the success I disagree I think it's about 50. My argument is that when you exercise lots it suppresses your appetitte and keeps you burning calaries up to 18 hours afterwards and gives your body that great look. What do you think? -

Marriage and relationships after Weight Loss Surgery
AussieSam replied to TiredOfMyself's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
My marriage is just as it was before my wls I think one of my secrets was to do it slow and not expecting to lose 250 lbs overnight. I put in my mind that I will do it within 5 to 10 years and because of the slowness it doesn't have all the hormonal issues with very fast weight loss.
