Happy Shock!

Wowweeeee!

I started my pre-surgery diet on October 1st and lost 11lbs and then had my sleeve on the 19th. So it has been four months since I started this overall process and I have lost a total of 60lbs!

I have to say I am a kind of flabbergasted! When you diet your entire life (okay, I am only 32, but that is still a lot of diets!) it is shocking to see something work.

The part I have been lax on has been the exercise. I walk most days for 1km and tow my two boys on a sled behind me (we live in the Yukon- lots of snow and cold), but that has been the extent of my exercise. Until yesterday! I went to the gym yesterday and am I ever sore today.

My goals for this month are to workout with weights three times a week, at home or at the gym, and to lose 15 more pounds for a total of 75lbs for the start of March. Lofty goals but I am a keener!

Anyone else out there have a great weight lifting routine that you want to share? I would love to hear it!

Congrats on that great progress! I haven't started weights yet, but I'm starting the couch to 5K cardio program this week.

Best of luck to you, and try to stay warm!!

I started a personal trainer 4 weeks ago and we are working on core strength. We have been adding weights into the mix. And I have been walking and doing some recumbant bike. I need to really step up my building more muscle so I can burn fat quicker.
