i excercised alot before i had surgery and i went 5 weeks without loosing a pound. I got discouraged and i stopped working out while i still dieted and would you believe it i dropped 3 pounds just like that. I am going to be cycling my workouts once i start again. I strenght train and hit the speedbag and heavy bag for cardio. I also jump rope but not sure if I am going to be able to do that again. dont want to slip my band lol. Do you lift weights? might want to incorporate that into your work outs just keep in mind that when you work out you are gaining muscle and might not loose any weight. So you hae to have periods when you cut and periods when you gain muscle mass.

so far i have lost about 13 lbs post op so not too bad i guess but like i said i really havent been eating/drining much. Just cant seem to get it all down. I returned to work last night and let me tell you those 10 hrs were a little tough my belly was a bit sore from all that sitting i did. I tried walking around but it just wasnt enough.I'm glad that you are uping your excersise bad thing about excersising is that it makes you hungry make sure that you are getting in sufficient cals to ensure that you dont paltreau.

hey girlie i saw Dr. K today and he was a sweetie pie he was so nice and it was funny how he complimented me for beeing an informed patient lol. I have one more week to go on the liquids and frankly can probrably do liquids for a while. I asked what band i got and i have a lapband ap standard 10cc. I asked if he filled the band at all during surgery and he told me that they leave the primer fill in there so its not deflated. I was like no wonder i totally feel it. I havent been hungry at all but i know that will all change soon. I had my first fill scheduled for the 30th of Dec when i told him he informed me that he would be out of town that week. So they scheduled me for the 23rd one week before sounds good huh.. I didnt realize that was just 2 days before Christmas eek no christmas dinner for me Depending on how i feel i just might cancel that fill appt. I dont want an overly tight band. Sorry for the long post just a bit excited i guess..

wow sucks chica hope youre feeling better I'm seeing Dr. Khalilli today. Beeing on liquids doesnt suck that much lol

Dr. Khalili was out of town wouldnt they know that before hand lol. Anyways I'm over it. I have been drinking muscle milk when i do get them in. I am down 10lbs so not too bad. OMG yesterday was a little tough for me those pumpkin pies looked soo yummy lolz..

Sorry to hear about your thyroid issues

hope you get those resolved. as far as things go I'm not back to work yet..Going back Dec 1st 3 days before my bday yaay. Why did they call me from Dr. Khalillis to reschedule my post op apt i was livid. I just cant get them to see me when they need to. I'm getting better with the drinking. Today i just seem to have no energy painwise I have none just some minor discomfort here and there. I'm scheduled to see Khallili on Dec 1st for my post op. I guess better late than never. Could you believe than when I questioned what their back up plan was as far as if anyone had a complication they said that their on call Doc was ill and that they would be refered to the ER. I was like you have to be shitting me such a big practice with no plan C lolz.. Anyhoot I should have known what i was signing up for getting banded so close to the holidays.
