I too am a patient of Dr. Elli. My surgery date is 7/10 at UIC. The last two weeks I've really been trying to stay strict with the exercise. I guess it has become somewhat of a routine now... now if only I can stop the empty calories. I wish the junk didn't taste so darn good!

Welcome! Congratulations on taking the steps to begin your new journey.

The most important thing that I've learned it don't stress to much about exercise. As far as the empty calories don't beat yourself up. This is a learning process, just keep at it. Soon it will become a healthy habit. You'll begin to make healthy choices without too much thought. Take it easy on yourself. Get at least 30 minutes of exercise in per day and work your way up. Eat right and those empty calories you'll burn off in your exercise.

Wishing you the very best and remember don't push yourself too hard or you won't stick with it.
