Hi everyone! Thank you so much for the support. 30 Day Shred is by Jillian Michaels. It is circuit training. 6 minute intervals 3 circuits in each level. It has 3 levels, I did each level for 10 days. I wish I could train with Jillian this girl gets results! I will be starting Ripped in 30, and I also started her kickboxing yesterday. I am taking the next few days before I start another toning programs. I am going to start my next 30 days on Monday Aug 16. Thank you all! I am just awe struck by all the well wishes!!!!!

you look great I have done the shred before and plan to complete it for the first time after my sleeve but I am wondering when it will be ok to start? what do you think? I was thinking jillian would do a job on any hanging skin issues and you just proved that indeed she will you look like you got a freaking tummy tuck! if you guys are interested they often have her videos on groupon. Any advice about how long to wait will be greatly appreciated i love (in the completely hate way) her videos but people say they are so tired after the surgery i wonder about being able to do it. I am scheduled for tomorrow, and my surgeon says exercise asap but im not sure thats what he means.

I was told to start walking right away but any exercise that involved your core had to wait til 6 weeks out. So check with your Dr. Best of luck tomorrow!!

I started 3 weeks after, just doing the treadmill. Once I got within 40lbs I started a toning program.

I started exercising 3 weeks after I was sleeved. Just the treadmill. I didn't even attempt a toning program until I was 40lbs from goal. I am not a stranger to WLS, I have plenty of experience. This is my second time and boy oh boy have I learned. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to PM me I can answer anything you need. Good luck tomorrow. It's a new beginning! :-)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
