RVAAngie 0 Posted April 14, 2013 I'm down 20 lbs today! That's counting from the post op diet. I was sleeved 3/27 and 12.2 lbs since surgery. I had a week stall right after surgery and just broke thru this week. I started exercising this week with 30 mins on the elliptical. My doc said I could start jogging if I wanted and weight lifting so long as it's nothing over 25 lbs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

UPRR Wifey 89 Posted April 30, 2013 I have stalled what do you guys eat? Do you exercise? How much have you lost so far? I'm down about 40lbs. I have been stalling off and on since week 2. It seems if I don't exercise I don't lose so I try to walk 4 days a week. 1 jkfletch82 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maya 3 Posted May 12, 2013 Happy 2nd monthly Anniversary !! Hope everyone is doing great. I am losing very slowly these days. I started with around 195 and now I am around 170. Have any one of you heard a rule that we are not supposed eat and drink together ? Struggle with food choices over the weekends. There are too many parties and social gatherings.... It gets challenging to be on track. 1 Livingmylife12 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have any one of you heard a rule that we are not supposed eat and drink together ? Struggle with food choices over the weekends. There are too many parties and social gatherings.... It gets challenging to be on track. Maya, That was one rule my doctor and NUT were fanatic about - no drinking for at least 30 mins before a meal and 30 mins after a meal. They noted that avoiding this rule could lead to weight gain. You may want to check with your doctor. Good luck to you! Kelly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I should check with my doctor as well. But it helps to know that I am not the only one :-) Do you know until when are we supposed to follow this rule.
