me too, I'm going to start to weigh my self only in the morning before I eat but after I go to the bathroom

I know the band isn't a magic bullet and I know I have a lot of work to do and I hope I'll be successful

haha ok :thumbup:

3 meals a day and one snack and 3 protein shakes rest is fluid and have a half cup for the meals, 1,000-1,200 cals or less or what? And walk twice a day or walk once a day and play DDR or the wii, do squats or lunges, and do arm exercises, too much?

thanks! (:

I could use tips and pointers

to lose 23 pounds by september 8th or by september 18th, eat 3 meals a day (i start mushies tomorrow), 9, 12, and 5 and have my water and gatorade in between and my protein twice a day. what are some good exercises besides walking? exercises that you did at 2 weeks post op? theres exercises in seventeen mag that i would like to do but im not sure i can cause you need to use your abs, what did you do? how about DDR or Wii Fit? ahhh!!

no it's just what I need to lose to get to my mini goal and school starts the 8th but I'll be happy if I can lose 10-15 by then, I haven't worked out hard just walked in the morning, I'm going to start walking at night too, I just want to be a success I don't want to fail at this

I want some fun exercises that work the whole body, I need to get going it's wicked hot hot high in the 80s and it's going to be like that all week, I went for a walk this morning and it was soo hot and barely any shade, really wish I could go swimming my surgeron said I could but I'll wait, I have DDR and wii fit like I said in other posts but I want actual exercises, what did you guys do? I really need to get going!

would it be ok you think? did anyone do it a day early? i had something mushy that my brother made, had to water it down cause it was too thick but after that went down ok and i had half a cup didnt even finish half a cup i think 1/4 or whatever cup after that will be enough, i still feel full which is good and i feel fine, so do you think a day early would hurt? not literally but its just a day before and im more satisfied when i ate that, what do you think? i dont want to have to call my surgeon again! ugh i need to start counting my cals again oh and the greek yogurt is actually good, i didnt think it would be haha

yeah the temp has been in the high 80s in new York it's even hard to go for a nice walk with the heat

I'm gonna play some DDR today and of course without jump mode and I'm gonna see what my wii fit scale says lol anybody else play these games?

I think active looks fun I hope to get it I lost 11 I hope the mushies will make me lose weight ahh

is it ok to ride a bike now? And yup the wii fit is fun (: I like it

yeah i was using my core ever since i got surgery, to get up and to lean back and all that and now i can bend over and pick things up and i can get in and out of bed i just dont want to be doing exercises made for the abs

i love the eliptical too! but i dont have one and i dont have a gym membership, but the school has one, i might beable to use it i dont know but it would have to be in the morning first period, then i would be all sweaty owell i guess but what are light exercises? wish i had a gym membership, would be a lot easier, ill do some seventeen magazine exercises, they're fun and ill go for a walk and then play DDR for 30 mins everyday and ill change back and for to the wii fit

i know walking is good, im doing walking thats why i asked about other exercises to put in. i asked my dr he said i could exercise just be careful, like can you give me some exercises that dont involve using your abs? i want to do some with my arms with 2 pound weights and eventually go up to 5 pounds. and i want to do some with my legs but i dunno what. i dont think i could do ab exercises til week 6. i dont see my surgeron til the 19th and i called him alot already during the first week. ill use my resistance band. i just want some arm and leg exercises thanks

ahh anybody?

lol the wii is funny, I hope I get wii active it looks better than wii fit and I heard it's better

i like both, i want the wii active but probably wont be getting it, maybe christmas :drool: theyre both fun,

I couldn't get anything down besides water and Gatorade g2 first week cause of nausea now I can (: it's all good I didn't start mushies yet cause it's 9am so I grabbed a yogurt I want to ask first now (:

My clear liquids was 7 days my full liquid stage is 7 days pureed is 2 weeks and I too can't wait til mushy stage

my surgeron said it was ok so im going to go swimming tomorrow, i wondering if anybody else went swimming at 1 and 1/2 weeks post op? and my surgeron said yes to all my questions which were 1. Is it okay to go to vermont and to their fair(rides) 2. is it okay to have tylenol pills for headaches 3. can i start exercising? 4. can i go swimming he said yes to all those so yay but just tell me if any of you went swimming this early thanks (:!
