I was walking every day after surgery. Would go to the mall and walk a few laps. I was give the ok to lift after a month. I am now 4 months out and tried insanity and I am no were near were I need to be to do that yet. I have lost 107lbs so far and run every day and lift weights, I lasted about 20 mins into the first tape and all the jumping bothered my knee and just wasnt to the point you need to be to do that.

Your body should guide your decision. If you are not in pain (real physical pain as opposed to the "this workout sucks!" kind of pain) it should be fine. You may only be able to do a very short amount, but we all have to start somewhere. Only do what you can comfortably do without hurting yourself. When in real doubt consult your doctor and whatever you do, have a fun time with it! The process is difficult. But creating these habits can be fun too. :)

You can always modify how you do it. You don't have to jump as high or be as intense as the people in the video. You can aim to do 20 minutes of a 40 minute tape. I know people who are in shape and work out who couldn't do the full P90x program their first time. I plan to start P90x in July. I will do a slowed down modified version for the first 90 days. Then I plan on doing it again after I complete it with a little more intensity (hopefully).

highest weight = 228 DOS = 219 CW = 201 DOS was May 7th 2013

      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.
