Getting Back On Track



Recommended Posts

Hello Sleevers,

I finally decided to go to the gym for the first time in my life. I am still nervous and dread walking in there, but I need to continue with my weight loss. Long story short, I was sleeved 10/10 and lost 70 pounds without exercising at all (I am not proud of admitting to that). I started eating bad again and gained 7-10 pounds since June 2011. I just completed the 5 day pouch test and started the Leslie Sansome "Walk away the pounds" 1 mile. My 10 week body sculpt start Monday April 9.

Wish me luck,

Xs-2011

No sweats. I've lost 69 lbs without doing much exercise also. But I decided to start walking and going back to the gym tomorrow. I have so much more energy than before, also have started The Basic Boot camp diet by LilMissDiva and lost a couple ozs over night. So what I'm saying is, it's not too late and you can do this! ;)

One day at a time is my MO!

In my experience, if you exercise regularly (and challenge yourself), you can eat whatever you want. You'll like it, I'm sure!

I am in the same boat as you basically. I lost 125 pounds or thereabouts with little to no exercise at all and now I have been hovering around 265 up a few, down a few since January.

I even have 3 months free at the YMCA and I have yet to go yet. I have been eating lot of wrong things all in small portions so I haven't gained anything back yet.

I need to get myself moving and stop eating like an idiot. Good Luck to you and send some exercising energy my way!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
