heatwhip 166 Posted July 8, 2013 How do you all get motivated to work out.....I get light headed like I am going to pass out' date=' just walking in wal-mart.....maybe something is wrong?[/quote'] Are you getting enough Protein? I have been going to the gym 5-6 days a week with no problem but I do get light headed if I don't get enough Protein. Also my blood pressure is pretty low so they may have something to do with it.

Mimistar 78 Posted July 8, 2013 For me: I drink a Protein Shake an hour before I got I the gym and drink Water while on the treadmill. It helps a lot. Start off with a short distance. As your tolerance builds up.....you'll do better. Lets all do this together. :-) Good Luck. Hope to see you shrinking. :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WifeyMaterial 139 Posted July 10, 2013 I feel great' date=' losing weight, finally. I felt so conflicted about getting another surgery, I felt I had failed the lapband, what's to say that I won't fail with this. And I was eating right and exercising, but I couldn't stop throwing up with the band. My surgeon said he knew how I could feel that way, but the band failed me. Not the opposite. The first few weeks of the sleeved life is hard, but I'm 5 weeks out now, and I feel great![/quote'] I'm glad that u r ok nd everything is much better I can only amazing how u felt about the lapband I proli would have cried lol . But I'm very glad u r Ok nd keep up da good work Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
