I had my sleeve surgery on 09/14/18. I did very well with the surgery and recovery. I've lost 41 lbs. since surgery. I already had one 3 week period with no weight loss. And I'm afraid that I'm beginning another. Also, I am 8 weeks into weight loss and am happy with the progress. I'm a little tired of the food and I think the bariatric food is really nasty tasting (LOL). The only one I care for is the hot chocolate and I add a scoop of chocolate whey protein (it knocks out a lot of the daily protein). I live in the deep south and I'm missing some of the southern favorites but I just keep hanging in there. Has anyone that's been through this stage or is in this stage exercising with a personal trainer? We live rural, and have one gym in the next town. After being diagnosed with a serious heart condition, I became inactive and have not exercised in over 4 years. Any suggestions (besides walking - I do that) about exercise? Happy to be able to have bariatric friends that know what's it's like!
