I know you will do great, but I'm curious as to why you would wait until after your surgery to join Planet Fitness? Why not join now and start the habit of exercising before the surgery? Have you begun to change your eating habits as well? This is a great time to start so the shock of the diet change won't be as hard on you. Just a suggestion, I want you to have a safe easy journey. You can do this. I'm rooting for you. :)

You and I have the same starting weight and I'm down 75lbs at just over 6 months! Good luck to you! I wish I had the time to do the gym thing but it's not in the cards yet for this single mom. I'll stick to my human hamster wheel for now.

I have the Zumba DVDs. I've been lucky to have lived in a few major metropolitan areas where I had access to many forms of ethnic dance so Zumba is ok, but not super exciting. I do like the Zumba workout with the weight/shaker sticks but getting motivated to re-arrange the furniture so I have space to do it is tough. I'm much more likely to get on my treadmill. I'm thinking of a gym membership but I don't like to take my son's time to go to the gym.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
