Ok, so I'm seven months post-op and have lost 63lbs. I need to tone up mainly my upper arms and inner thighs. What are the best and most effective exercises I can do for these areas?

Push ups are great! But to reach the different muscle groups in your arms you will need to do different types. Such as dimond, reverse, and regular. Thoes will hit all 3 major muscles in the arms. For the upper legs i sugest lunges. They are easy to do and you can even do then when walking.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
